Cover photo photo shoot plan!


Location
I'm going to set my photo shoot in the media suite down stairs against the white screen as the white signifies purity and light which a lot of ballads are about. I was going to set this outside originally but later decided that it wasn't suited to the feeling i wanted for the front cover.
Props
I originally wanted to have some form of musical instrument in the shoot as it is a music magazine but after further thought I decided that it wouldn't work out because ballads aren't particularly about the instruments but mainly the voice so the use of a musical instrument isn't necessarily needed. I may include an instrument
Person
I'm using Emma from my class as my model as she is attractive there fore she will grab peoples attention as they are browsing magazines. I will use the same model for my front cover and my double page spread.

Clothing
I wanted Emma to be wearing casual clothing, as I said earlier the clothing isn't important, its the voice but I asked Emma to wear light clothing as it would reflect a pure and emotional nature which is what I wanted Emma to achieve. I also supplied red lipstick for the shoot as I wanted a flash of colour which could portray passion and romance.

Positioning/Pose 
I really wanted Emma to have eye contact with the camera in the shoot as they say the eyes are the window to the soul, and i wanted the cover to have a fairly emotional mood to it. I'm going to try an over the shoulder pose and face on too see which I prefer. I don't really want Emma to smile as it doesn't go with the mood of the cover but I may try a few.
