Cover Photos

From researching my prominent style model, 'Q' magazine, I discovered that the most popular photograph on the front cover of the magazine presents a close-up or mid-shot of a model as they are looking directly into the camera.




The fact that they are looking directly at the camera acts as a personal pronoun as it appears as though they are looking directly at the audience and enticing them personally to purchase the magazine. Furthermore, the close-up or mid-shot allows many aspects of mise en scene to be represented. For instance, it allows their clothing, facial expressions and pose to be shown clearly. Therefore, I decided to incorporate this convention for the cover of my music magazine.

Therefore, this is my final photograph on the cover of my magazine...
