Which picture I will NOT useInappropriate mise-en-scene

Long-shot (The reader can’t see who the artist is)

Blurry backgroundUnsuitable costume and muddled

The Artist face is tilted therefore the reader can’t see her. No eye contact with the reader

Blurry mise-en-scene and poor choice of shot

Inappropriate mise-en-scene

Poor choice of costume makes the image look unprofessional

Costume(hood) cover the models face. Could represent different connotations

Which picture I will use The mid-shot of Henrietta Dent focuses only on her rather than the background. The reason I chose this is image is because it immediately portrays her personality and builds interaction with the audience. The image focuses mainly on her face but it also has a natural look will appeals to the audience. The natural light with no flash gives a warmer feel to the artist as well as the image. The panned background allows the reader to focuses on her. The mid-shot includes the hand gestures of the artist.

Panned background

Interaction with the audience Direct contact with the

audience & also represent the artist

Costume which blends with the artist and background

In this shot I adjusted the levels of the model face. The brighter image will make the shot more appealing

Using the plaster tool( Burn tool) this allowed me to remove the small details on the models face. E.g. the freckles and anything else.

Using the magic lasso tool, I went around the models teeth to adjust the colour

Once I had drawn around the teeth, using ink tool I changed the hue, saturation and the lightness of her teeth. Therefore they became whiter and clearer.

Once I was happy with all the adjustments on the models face, I decided to adjust the colour and change it to black and white only.

I also adjusted the brightness and contrast for the image to stand out, as its black and white.

The final touches included leaving the models lips red. This will immediately catch the readers attention but it also give a touch of brightness and colour. The red is also effective as it blends well with the other red on the double page spread.

I used these this brush to give a delicate but sophisticated look to my double page spread. The I changed the colour to red as it blends will the rest of the double page spread. Once I was happy with the placement of the brushes I added a tool box in the middle, then dragged this image onto my double page spread.

Final double page spread was then placed on publisher so that the text was built around the brush effect.

• The first and second draft of the double page spread didn’t follow the conventions of a typical music magazine. After receiving my feedback I decided to change certain conventions on my double page spread such as font, colour and effects so that my double page spread followed the conventions of a music magazine and followed the conventions to attract my target audience. Based on the music magazine I followed (Q magazine) I improved and made changes in order to have an appropriate double page spread. I edited the image and adjusted the font in order to attract my target audience.
