Resarch and planning: Music magazine inspiration

 
These magazine covers inspired me to base magazine on a simple background and also got me thinking about the colour scheme of my magazine and outfits needed by model, these magazine are unique and same because the outfits the models are wearing blends in with the background colour as ths make the magazine stand out and look brilliant.
  for my magazine I have decided to make  my colour scheme red black and white,and my models outfits would be red and white so it can blend in with the magazine cover. and the mast head would be the biggest font and written in red colour the background would be plain white , story lines and other information on the cover will be done in black and red.

Research and Planning: Plan for the week

For this week my plan would be to:

• complete my production schedule 
• take test shots of potential models 
• decide the location for my photo shoots 
• choose my models for my magazine 
• upload images of model I have decided to use.
• upload a music magazine inspiration and analysis it for my music magazine.

Research and Planning: Genre colour scheme associated with models.

I choose pop/RnB as my music magazine genre and my model needs to have the  fun look, be pretty and outstanding and also she also has to wear pretty outfits that match the colour scheme of the music magazine and blends in with the background. According to my audience research they associated bright colours with pop magazines  and fancy colours so I have decided to use white and red not just because they are bright colours but also because the are well colour coded and make a perfect match together.

Research and planning: location recce.

For my music magazine photo shoot, I have decided to make my own little photo studio and, I have decided to use a white background as it blends in with any colour and most especially because I want my music magazine cover and contents page to be red and white so the background for my shoot will suit my magazine colour following the colour code. I have also set about to find the perfect location to set up a photo studio so I can organize a photo shoot with my models. 

Research and planning: plan for the week

• I will also need to produce at least one location recce and risk assessment talking about my location and where I want to have my models pictures taken.
• Then I will begin the production of my magazine and also the writing of my double page spread story and its outlines and layout.
