Research Comparing Photographs

As you can see from the above images, I have been comparing the photographs of the music artists to my own photography and I feel that the outcome was quite successful. I would like to use these images in my work, however I am only using this model on my contents page and so deciding which photo to use will be difficult.

This image was looking at posture and positioning and I feel that this was satisfactory, I will not use this image in my magazine because it does not portray a sound attitude compared to others. These two images are very similar though, and I am happy that I was able to compare them and create this.

Here i was looking at the models make up compared to the artists. This artists is known for wearing outrageous make-up and clothing; I wanted my model to portray this but in a more subdued way. I have used glitter on her face and lips for extra colour, however once I started to look back at the photographs I had taken I thought that an outfit change with better colours would have worked better.



First Photoshoot

I have styled my model around Kesha, with aspects such as the hair, slight glittery make up and certain aspects of the clothing. I am satisfied with my shots, and some will obvisouly have to be edited considering the background and some have shadows behind them. I will go on to photograph this model for a second time and another model for my contents page.

Model's Make-Up Research

After deciding to base my model around Kesha's style, I have been researching her make-up and wardrobe in order to figure out ideas of how I would like my magazine to look and which type of image I would like to portray, using my model. Kesha is well known for her crazy and individualistic style and make-up. I would really like to incorporate this style into my own photographs and I think that buy presenting ways in which Kesha conveys herself will help me realize what I would ultimately want to do with my own model make up and style wise. 


Make-up:

This is one of the minority of images I've found of Kesha with reasonably plain make up on. I like the fact that her hair is swept to one side, and the thickness of her eye liner is quite dramatic compared to a natural look. I would prefer my model to have a more striking look though.

This is one of my favourite images to describe the look I want! Her make up is plain, but then she has nearly half of her face covered in silver and gold glitter. her hair is scruffy but maintained not to look greasy and rough as in some pictures I had found. I would really like to experiment this look on my model.

This again, is a good example of covering half of her face in glitter and still not looking over powering. I like the colours but this image does not show a lot of personality or style in my opinion.

Kesha is seen regularly with dramatic eye make up as seen in this image. I would certainly like to experiment with this type of look on my model as I think it is different to other celebrities looks.

Font Research

Here I will present my Font Research, the first page will be a selection of random fonts I have found on InDesign and then go on and do furthur in depth research.

Second set of research:

These are eight fonts which I think would go with the style of my magazine from the second set of random fonts research:

These are my three favourite fonts from both pages of research:

Here are three different fonts which I have manipulated to figure out which font I would ultimatley like to use on my magazine cover:

The font I have decided to use on my frontal magazine cover:

I would like my final font to be coloured, I have experimented with font colours:

After looking at colours, I have decided to experiment with the directions of the fonts and the overall effects of the title:
