camera introduction

Before the processes of making my magazine, we had to get used the camera in order to make sure that we got the good pictures that we needed to get really good and professional looking pictures.
The camera we used was the Nikon D7100 , this was the first time i was using a professional camera and the focus of the camera was unlike what i have seen and it look really professional and the quality was really good and since the camera has 24.1 megapixels. .

We learnt about the light boxes used in photoshoot to make sure  the photos look like quality photos 

there is 1 ( which is the lowest form of light ) to  6 ( the highest point of lighting)

but for our photos we used 3 point lighting because any higher with look too bright and 1 would be too low. We had to keep the lighting 4ft or 5ft away depending on what type of pictures i want to take i could have just left everything the same.

Magazine research

The magazines that i used to help me evaluate Vibe magazine and Q magazine , vibes magazine is more linked to my genre however these magazine help me construct a version-of how I wanted my front cover to and give me guidelines of how a real music magazine front cover should look like.

This helped have an idea of how my placing should be and the type of content that should be going onto the front cover. Something interesting that the reader can pick up and get involve ..
From this research i have noticed that the cover star has to be looking forward and be engaged with the readers.

masterhead ideas

These master heads were made on illustrator and these are drafts of cover , so they might not nessacery be used but because my magazine is a RnB magazine I wanted the magazine masterhead to be a bit funky and playful however I feel as though these masterheads look more like a cartoon like than I expected  . however I shall be going back onto illustrator and consider the simplicity and edginess to my magazine
