Image idea - random post

This image idea had formed from an image I had seen on another magazine used on a double page spread.

This image will be placed on my content page. It will include two people, a boy and girl; this makes the image a two shot image. I have used both genders to appeal to a wider range of audience. The group will be called the sparks and I am using Julia and Fill. Similar to the image above, I want to use different positioning of characters in my image and also have those facing different places. Julia will be the main focus of the image as she will be standing closest to the camera (medium close up) and staring directly at the camera. This will make the reader feel involved by gratifying them with personal identity. Fill will be standing behind Julia further from the camera, though Julia is closer and in more of the image fill will look taller and more of his body will be in the image making him look more powerful. Both people will be wearing casual clothing as I want them to look relaxed. This is because when the audience looks at this image they will see that these people are just ordinary people like themselves. Fills hands will be in his pockets making him looked relaxed and calm. I wanted a nature background; therefore I want the image to be taken outside. Because I wanted the colours to be quite dull like the one in the double page image, I will put the photo in black and white. This will also widen my range of effects for images as most of the image I will be using will be in colour.

My fourth image idea is to have someone playing live. A lot of content pages include live shots that show the artist performing while the image has been taken.  I will be using my uncle for this image as he best suites the genre of my magazine, also I wanted to use different age ranges and genders. I want the image to be of him sitting down playing a guitar. He will be focused on the guitar as if he is performing while the image is taken and not giving direct address because that would make it seem as if he was prepared and focused on the shot being taken. He will be wearing casual clothing because some of the indie style is very relaxed and this is how I want him to look, similar to this image. However, he will be more focused on the guitar with his head down; the image will not be taken in black and white but with colour instead. Also my model will not have facial hair. The image will be taken so that it looks more live, this will be done by adding an audience, stage and a microphone, if I am able to get these items. My image will also include a guitar as prop.
