Magazine progress

This is my magazine progress I've got the magazines contents on the cover, I wanted my target user to see the front cover image so i decreased the capacity of the boxes so that it's see through.

School magazine front cover with tittle

School magazine photoshoot

This picture is a medium long shot and I wanted to create a radiant and joyful atmosphere so I need a high lit setting so I took the picture outside in the sunshine. I also choose to have my models against a background which is simple and not to busy to make them be the focal point in the image. The models in image are acting natural because I wanted it to look genuine.

This image is a high angle long shot, the models are walking up the stairs to show their journey to their success they are not looking at the camera because it shows the friendly relationship between the students in school. This image also has a plain background which is effective however in this image would not work for my front cover because there is no space for my masthead but it probably would for my contents page. 

This image is a close up of my models face its also a third angle shot this is because my consumer would usually look at the sides of the image first rather than the middle. it also allows me space to write my contents on the side. The image is also very vibrant and distinct this is because of the outdoor lighting.  The image also represents the theme of my magazine because it has a book on the table. my model is not giving direct eye contact because I didn't want the image to look typical like other magazines.

Target auddience profile

Wonderland magazine is a sophisticated magazine, the front cover is very simple but their front cover picture is always eye catching. The magazines classy and simple approach means that the draw in the audiences that magazine is aimed at, which are middle class white girls. The audience age group is 16-25 girls which are in college or university, in their spare time they hang out with their friends and listen to indie/pop music. They shop at places like topshop and vintage style shops like beyond retro and Blitz. Their income probaly comes from their perants as they do not have a job because they are in full time eductaion. 

 

The user also uses tecnology a lot and they own a iphone so they use apps such as instagram and tumblr these are apps that are for sharing images. This means the front cover images on wonderland magazine would attract them because the colours used are very vibrant and makes the image more appealing and creative, this reflects the target user which is also a craetive person.
