Forte - Magazine Photoshoot

These are some of the photos that I captured using the Canon 600D which is a digital SLR camera.
After a couple of frames I decided to location because the lighting wasn't very good at the beginning and it made the photos come out quite dark which I didn't want.
As you can see the second lot of photos are much lighter and the colour of her hair is much more vibrant. I asked her to do different facial expressions because I knew that the Front Cover was going to be quite Pop/ Rock, therefore I messed her hair up to make her look that little bit more edgy.

When looking back and one of my previous posts where I discussed my Photoshoot/ design ideas I stated that I might use props. As you can see I used a guitar and a pair of headphones which I thought worked really well.

Photoshop Short Task - PopSplash Magazine Contents

Like with my front cover for PopSplash, this task was the same but to create a contents page for the same magazine.
As you can see this is a huge improvement from when I produced the college magazine contents page, I had learnt many more skills in Photoshop and also learnt about the features that you would typically see on a contents page, such as using cover lines for page numbers.

As shown below is the outcome of the contents page for the magazine that I created.
