Front Page Picture.

Ideas!

Here are a few ideas of the sort of poses I would like to use!

This one is good, as the model on the front looks smart, but at the same time, he looks slightly casual. The effect on the background looks good too. The repetition of his face shows he is an important character and stops the background looking bare and boring. It is quite popular on a magazine to have a saturation of zero and then a bolder colour, like red, to make the page look more attractive.

This is a good idea as the model has their hands in front of their face and the lighting only shows their hands and face. This is a good effect as it adds a sense of 'mystery'. The readers become interested in the model as they are uncertain of who he/she may be.

This is from the same magazine as above. The models in this magazine have all been photographed separately then the final results have been all added together. I like this idea as I do not need all the models together at once. It is also effective as they all look like musicians. The moody/attitude look gives them a 'rock star' look.

I like the black and white effect on this image. It gives a serious feel to the photo and I like the space around the model. However I must be careful as I do not want my magazine to appear bare or empty.
