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.
