Rejected Photos

These are the photos that I decided not to use in my magazine:

 

I decided not to use this image because you can't see my artist very well and this, I felt, wouldn't have given my magazine a very professional and clear look. I wanted my artist to be portrayed clearly on the page however my artist is rather distant from the camera in this image hence I didn't feel it was suitable.

Again, I felt that my artist was too distant from the camera thus my artist wasn't really clear in the picture. However I did quite like this picture because it gave another level as she was sitting on the ground and also, the image looks creative and interesting. Despite this, I didn't choose this image because it wasn't very clear.

I didn't use this image within my magazine because it is not professional thus wouldn't be suitable; it makes my magazine look unprofessional and childish because her position is very casual and not that relaxed. This is why I decided against this photo as it doesn't put the magazine in a positive light.

Although this image looks interesting and creative, I didn't use it in my magazine because the focal point of the picture wasn't my artist - instead it was the trees and the branch. This is why I didn't use this image because I wanted to choose an image that made my artist stand out on the page however this does the opposite and hides her.

Although I really liked the position of my artist because the way she is standing makes her look powerful and strong and this is what I wanted to convey. However I decided to not use this photo because the exposure was much too bright therefore you couldn't really see the artist and made the whole image quite unclear and blurry. Also, she is not central and because I want to make the magazine look professional and neat, I felt that the image was not suitable hence why I decided against it.













I decided not to use this image because it was blurry. Therefore, it wouldn't be suitable or appropriate for my magazine because I want to use images which are clear and stand out on the page thus because it was blurry, I couldn't use it in my magazine. Despite this, it is a very creative and different image and does suit the genre well.

Ongoing Production log - Entry 1

I found this music magazine in WHSmiths and decided to analysis it so that when I came to designing and creating my own magazine, I knew what sort of conventions I should be considering. I annotated on the front cover the different conventions thus has helped me greatly because it has made me think about what I should be making sure I have on my magazine cover, for example: bold colours and minimal text.
