Location Description

Location One-Blank white wall in room. I decided to use this as my location for my front cover image as it features a plain white blank painted wall so therefore is a basic background perfect for a close up or mid-shot image. I also decided on this location as it is directly facing a window which provides a lot of natural light, making my images have natural lighting rather than the simple camera flash.
Location Two-Brick wall in a backstreet of Tynemouth. I decided to use this as the location for taking my double page spread photos as it represented the artist and connected with the style and genre of my magazine. The brick wall and the base of the lamppost created an urban vibe and allowed the audience to get a bit more information about the artist just from the location. This location also fitted well with the layout of my double page spread as the artist was going to be on the left hand side then a gradual fade into the text and this effect worked really well with the fade of the rugged bricks.
Location Three-School stage. This location was chosen for my contents page image as i thought that the staging equiptment would be a good prop for the artist to either stand infront of or sit on it. This incorporated well with the prop of the drumsticks in this image also, creating a rock and roll feel for the particular artist. The staging and dark lighting could also insinuate that the image was taken back stage of a gig making my images more realistic to the music industry.
