Unit 57: Photography and Photographic PractiseProject Proposal

(P2, P3, M2, M3, D2, D3)

Candidate name: Lewis Dunn

Theme: Music Magazine Portrait Photo Shoot

Predicted final outcome

What are you going to produce (you need to choose 10 final images)

I will produce an overall minimum of 50 high quality portrait shots during my photo shoot, exploring the different techniques in portrait photography I will produce different photos taken to perfection. I will use 2 models during my shoot which I will experiment and take various shots from different angles testing my photography abilities. The shoot will be shot indoors using artificial lighting although I may try being a little different by shooting outside depending on the weather at that time. The genre of magazine I am basing my photos around will be shot using bright complimentary colours so the photos will be eye catching and stand out, I also might shoot a few shots in black and white to vary my photography. When finalized my 50 shots I will then choose 10 which I will later be using in my magazine.

I like the photography used in these Vibe magazines for many reasons, first reason is the use of the black and white artist mixed with the bright coloured backgrounds, it contrasts the image and stands out which is good for a magazine. The format of the magazines aren’t so complex with the title etc… basic font and colour placed large at the top of the magazine.

Ransom J Rockwood photography:I think these portrait photos will influence my work because they are taken from angles which would be used in magazines, and when taking my photos I will use angles and colours just like the ones used in these photos. Comparing the photography used in these 3 portrait photos and the magazine photos above they are a lot alike which shows that this style of photography is a good use in magazines.http://www.cuded.com/2013/12/fashion-portraits-by-ransom-rockwood/

Alex Koloskov photography influences my work in portrait photography for my magazine because he uses a lot of colour in his shots which I like and would want to do a lot more in my work. I like how he uses different coloured lights to bring more bright light into each shot which gives a good effect in my opinion.http://www.photigy.com/portfolio/alex-koloskov/

The photo imaging equipment and medium that will be used and why

Use your camera… plus whatever else you think put some info about your cameraThe camera I will be using for shooting my portrait shoots will be a Nikon D3100 this camera involves:14.2 megapixelsSensor size and type: 23.1 x 15.4 mm CMOSHD video: Full HD 1080pISO Speed Range: 100-3200This camera will work well as it shoots in 1080p which is a good high quality camera also it shoots from both low ISO speeds and high ISO speeds so I can vary from the two when shooting in darker conditions when trying to make my shots a little better. I also could use a tripod when Im focusing more on shooting the head area, this will benefit because the tripod can be adjusted to the perfect head level and because its stabilised I can shoot on a higher shutter speed without worrying about camera blur. It will also help by keeping the same height in head level needed when shooting so I wouldn’t have to guess when coming to shoot the next photo.

Techniques that will be used and how they will help convey the visual message

E.g. framing, styles, shutter speeds, etc When putting the technical terms into shooting I will have to consider the right lighting/ brightness to make the picture as good as it could be. Thinking about the ISO it depends how much natural and artificial light I use during the shoot, if there isn’t much and it makes the shot hard to see I will either increase or decrease the ISO until the brightness is perfect. The same applies to shutter speed it all depends on how much light there is contained in the room at that moment of time if its to dark and I need there to be a little more light to brighten the shot I could increase the shutter to longer time so more light will be captured making the shot easier to see. Depth of field will be highly considered when shooting for example if im shooting outside and there is to much distraction in the background or objects/people which could potentially be ruining the shot then I could blur out the back ground so the shot will be more intended on the model and reduce the risk of distraction or things that could be letting the shot down.

Location of shootA plain one coloured room/studio,Outside, field or street

(Give a bit of info about the type of music magazine your images will be used for and what location(s) you intend to shoot your portraits and why.
