Here are the images from the front cover photoshoot.

1. Photo Shoot Images Analysis
Isabel Worrell

2. I like this image because
Lucy is fairly centred. I like
the pose as it think it fits
to the pop genre. I also
like the lighting I have
used in the image.
I think above her head I
have left too much space
so Lucy looks a little out
of position in the image.
The mid shot
I find is the right type of
image for a front cover of
a music magazine and
stick to conventions.

3. • This image is more
centred than the
other images. It
doesn’t fit to the pop
genre however. Also
Lucy looks a little
shocked in this
image.
• It is a mid shot which
is right for the
conventions found on
a front cover. Again I
like the lighting used
in this image however
it’s not quite right for
a front cover

4. This image is just
awkward. Lucy
doesn’t look
happy or bubbly
which is the
theme I was going
for.
It is a mid shot
and I like the
angle that Lucy is
facing however
the image isn’t
quite centred. It’s
the same lighting
I used in the
other few images
which like.

5. This image is over
exposed because I
used the flash on the
camera for this
image.
I don’t like the angle
Lucy is facing on this
image either.
The image doesn’t
really scream pop
genre either.
One good thing
about the image is
that I didn’t leave a
lot of space at the
top.

6. In this image Lucy is sort of
shocked.
I like the lighting in this
image and Lucy’s skin looks
really clear.
Lucy is too much to the right
of the image . Again the
image doesn't really scream
pop genre and it’s just a bad
image which I wouldn’t put
in my magazine at all.
It is however a mid shot
which fits into the
conventions found in a
music magazine front cover.

7. This image isn’t very good
because Lucy is not
centred and also her
elbow goes out of the
image. I feel also in this
image there is too much
of a shadow across the
right of her face.
It also doesn’t’ fit to the
pop genre very much.

8. This image doesn’t
work because Lucy
is too much to the
right of the image.
The pose she is
doing with her
hands creates a
shadow on her face
which is too dark.
The image doesn’t
scream pop genre
music magazine
either.

9. This image fits to the
pop genre more. I like
the lighting on the right
hand side of the image
but it create a shadow
too dark on Lucy’s face.
It’s still not suitable for
a Front cover as the
hands could get in the
way of text on the front
cover. I wouldn’t use
this image because
there’s not much of a
story behind it and we
were pretty much just
messing about in the
image.

10. I really like this image
as I think it screams
pop genre quite a lot.
I like the pose that
Lucy is making.
The image does sway
to the right a bit but I
like the lighting in this
image .
If trimmed at the left a
little to make it appear
more centred then
this type of image
could be used as a
front cover.

11. This image is really good
for a front cover. I feel that
it is positioned perfectly.
I feel that in terms of pop
genre it’s not the best
image but with some
editing and colour schemes
on top this image could
really work. I could include
musical symbols to make it
have more of a music
theme.
It’s the type of image you’d
expect to find on the front
cover of a magazine.
I also really like the lighting
used in this image as the
background is very pale
which is something I
wanted.

12. This has to be one of
the worst images I have
taken.
The only light on in this
image was the right
light and this makes the
image look really dark.
Also it’s out of position
as you can see where
the white screen stops.
There’s nothing special
about this image at all
and it’s really quite bad.

13. I wouldn’t use this
image as a front cover
because you don’t see
front covers with this
type of pose. Again
this isn’t really
screaming pop genre
and I don't really like it
that much. It is
however the right size
shot for a front cover
and there room on
each side to add text.

14. I prefer the pose in
this image and I
actually really like
this. I would have
definitely considered
using this as my
front cover image
but the lighting is
too dark.
I will try out editing
it to see if I can make
it lighter as I think
this would be a good
image to use.

15. I like how well in position
Lucy is in the picture as she’s
right in the centre.
The image doesn’t really say
much about the pop genre
however.
I also like the lighting in this
image and I believe all 3 lights
where turned on.

16. This image is okay but
it’s too dark on the right
hand side. After
feedback from my
teacher I decided to put
glasses on my model to
try fit to the pop genre
more. The image is the
right size for a front
cover and it is a mid shot
which is sticks to the
conventions expected to
be found n a front cover.

17. This image is a good
image to use for my
front cover because the
pose is suitable for a
front cover.
I like the lighting and I
think that the shot is
the right size for a front
cover.
There is more a sense
of pop genre in this
image too because of
the glasses and band t-
shirt.

18. This image is an alright
image.
I don't think it’s that
special but I prefer the
length of this shot as it
is a mid shot.
The lighting is good I
this image but the
shadow is a little bit too
dark in the right side.
I think that the pop
genre in this image is
quite small. And not
mush relation to music.

19. This image is good as it is
the right size. The problem
is the shadow in the face.
I’ll look into if there is
anything that I can do to
stop the shadow appearing
on Photo shop. I had an
idea of adding a scarf into
Lucy’s hair because I
though it would suit the
pop genre better.

20. The image is bad as Lucy is
cut off at the feet of the
image. Although the guitar
helps suit the music theme,
it’s not a pop music guitar
and this image looks more
like a indie style image
than pop. Also again in this
image you can see where
the white background
ends.

21. I couldn’t use this
image for a front cover
but I do think it has
some potential to be a
double spread image. I
like the lighting in the
image. The right and
left light where turned
on. I will try it as a front
cover image as I think it
could work as there is
lots of space for text.

22. The lighting in this
image is good and
clear. It fits will with
the mise-en-scene and
I also think that this
image has potential to
be the front cover
Image I choose to use.
There would be
enough space to put
text on and Lucy the
model is well aligned in
the image.

23. Reflection on Images
The main Issue with the images in this is that
they don’t scream Pop Genre enough. Non of
the images are good enough to use as a double
page spread image which means I am definitely
going to have to re shoot. In terms of front cover
some could be valuable but need work on
Photoshop. The images could be changed later
on in my re shoot. The images need to reflect
music more.

24. These images are potential front cover
images…
