Costumes For Shoot

Taking into consideration that the genre of music magazine that I am going to be producing is a pop music magazine I have taken into consideration the costumes that each of my models are going to be wearing.

My front cover model Tara will need to have a direct address to attract people to buy the magazine, therefore a stylish and sophisticated outfit will suit the genre of magazine. I have chosen a flowered skirt and a plain black top would be suitable for the front cover as this will make my model stand out more on the front cover, although I will be using a mid shot or a close up for my front cover so we may not be able to see her outfit.
The same clothes will be worn when Tara features inside of my magazine in the contents page and double page spread, following the conventions of a Pop music magazine.

As I am going to create a girl band to use as one of the images inside the magazine on the contents page I will need to think about costumes that are going to work well on the page and fit in with the genre of music that I have decided to create my music magazine around. Sticking with stylish and sophisticated outfits, each of the girls that are going to be in the girl band will be wearing a dress, each wearing a different colour. I thought this was suitable for my pop magazine as it follows conventions of other girl bands. I have three girls, Tara (my cover girl), Olivia and Georgia as my models that I will take individual photos of to put the images together to create a girl band.

My male model alex will be the only image that is taken in an outside location that will fit into my magazine, within the contents page. I have chosen a much more casual outfit of dark jeans and a navy blue polo top. Having looked at some pop music magazines I have found that the males are dressed in a much more casual outfit, therefore I am following these conventions for my own magazines.
