Photo Shoot Explanaion

For my photo shoot I took a camera to Whitby Goth Weekend, whilst there I took pictures of people in steam punk costume. After asking their permission I asked them to pose in certain poses which allowed me to get the required shot for each page. i also went to a live show where some steam punk bands were playing this allowed me to get some live shots.


For the front cover I took a picture of a couple stood looking towards the camera. This direct mode of address was perfect for my front cover. i chose to only use the man and baby as they were a lot more striking and would draw more attention to the magazine.

For the contents page I took a picture at the live event this picture was good as it was indirect mode of address and I used it to split the page it also adds some sense of movement to the page.

For my main picture on the double page spread I used an image which I think is the best I took, it has a figure to one side then an open space to the right this allows me to use this space for the text.

Creating backgrounds

The backgrounds in my magazine were either derived from a digital photo taken on my photo shoot, created on adobe Photoshop or a mixture of the 2.
