Photo shoot Review

For the front cover of the my school magazine, I decided that my Medium close up shot would be of 2 students, that are apart of the Academy sixth form, stood either side of a large framed photo of a younger student of the school in full school uniform.

Therefore I used one of my Media lessons to take the photo I needed for the front page and I believe it was a successful shoot. I took more than one of the same shot so that I would have a few to choose from and have the opportunity to get used to the camera, ultimately leaving me with the best shot for my front cover. 

I believe where I have placed the actors in the photo will work well as I can place any text I would like on my front cover, not including the Masthead, in the middle of the two students which will hopefully also make the writing more clear and readable. 

(INSERT FRONT COVER PHOTO)

At another time when I had a free lesson I decided to take my contents page photo that included one of my actors that was previously in my front cover photo. I hadn't made a definite decision about where my contents page photo would be taken but I finally decided I would take it in one of the computer rooms in the sixth form base. My actor is sat at one of the computers editing in photo shop on the computers. I believe this was a a good shot as the background is not too busy so my text will be easily seen and read, and it has a good angle so that we can see what Danny (the actor) is working on on the computer. This shot is also a medium close up.

I believe my pictures represent the school in a positive way and I stuck to my photo shoot plan.
