20/09/2010 - More research on magazine covers - photographs

During today's lesson I finished my research on different magazine covers. I then decided what I liked and disliked about each magazine front cover and after looking at the last magazine front cover I was able to take the idea of a child studying for an image for my magazine. I will now find various images that are similar and hopefully take my own photographs soon.

1)














In my previous blog entry I selected various magazine front covers and anaylsed the positive and negative aspects of each. From the first and fourth magazine front covers that I used, I decided that they would be beneficial in helping me to find relevant images for my own magazine. I have searched for 'students carrying books' in google images and found the above two. I like these images as I believe them to be well mediated, the lighting is flattering and not too over powering. The image quite clearly shows an academic theme and perhaps this pose would be perfect for my own magazine.

I then anayalised my fourth magazine front cover and liked the image of a child studying. This would convey the message of education and students through the image to the reader. I searched for 'students studying' and selected these three images. I like each one as it shows the students content in their study and the photographs are taken from different angles. When taking my own photographs, I will consider taking them from various angles and ensuring that the lighting is perfect like these.

  1. You need to do a little more on this research as the images and the way the figures are posed in them are quite disparate. Come to a conclusion. What type of image is your final choice?
