Final Costume And Props

 This is the final choice of my costume for my model to wear, so far there are no props but if that changes I will upload images of the props used on the shoot if they are just spur of the moment.

Double Page Spread Test Shots

 These images again were taken on the SLR camera I will be using for the actual shoot, I was trying different thing to see which I prefer and to see which ones my model was most comfortable with. I will pick closer to the time which pose and style of the spread I will use. These test shots are also inside, although used with flash it made a darker area around the outside, but my actual shoot will be out side so the lighting will be better and it will not have to use the flash.















Costume Research


Above is a gif I created using gifmaker.me to show male fashion and how I came up with my models costume. I focused on the older side again, making it casual but not too boring, I think the leather jacket and shirt go well together for a casual cool look so I've chosen to use both of them, I think this look relates to my target audience as its an older but casual look.

My Model Test Shots

Bellow are images I took on a SLR camera to test it out with my model and to show who my model is.

Final Masthead




After thinking for a while, i've decided to use this font for my magazine masthead, I like how its simple yet cool, but I might change it to this one depending on how the picture turns out, this font is called "Orange Juice".
The other font I might use for my masthead is the one bellow, for similar reasons as the first, but its filled and I like the "stitching" round the letters. This font it called "Fabrics".
I will add a post when i have completed the masthead, including colours.



Technology Used

Apple Mac


The apple mac is the most important tool we use, this is the base for everything, we access our blogs on here, we use photoshop on here, we access everything we need to use to create our magazines, but the camera, we can use prezi on there also.

SLR Camera

The camera we used for our test shots is a SRL Canon camera, this is equally as important as the apple mac, but we only need it for one thing we need it to shoot our images for our magazine cover, without it we wouldn't be able to do our front cover or have any images which is a really big part of your magazine.









Photoshop


Photoshop is used a lot to in media, we need this like we need everything else, we need it to edit pictures we are using, to create our magazine, this is the finishing touches to what we need.

Weekly Plan 3

This is my third weekly plan, this week Im planning on getting quite a bit done, last week including what I did I also got my model release form done so I could do my shoot, I'm going to do my drawn drafts of my front cover, contents page and double page spread. I also plan to talk about the technology we use in during the time in class and out of it and why those things are important, for example the Apple Mac we use daily. Though I had ideas about my masthead and I wanted to have a final idea of what one I will use I will show the two Im stuck between and I will do some research into the costume I will use on my shoot and the final costume choice including images. I also have decided to do some test shots of what I would like my model to do in the shoot so I have a rough idea of how I can take my shots at my location.
