DEVELOPMENT OF MY CONTENTS PAGE

I chose a mid shot of a featured artist on my double page spread to replace the previous image of Doc Marten shoes. Although it too did relate to my double page spread, I felt that an image of an artist was more significant than a pair of shoes. I liked this shot because of the way that I lit the set. I felt that the way it slightly shadowed the right hand side of her face, hair and body was quite mysterious and would make the reader intrigued to read what her page would involve. I chose her in this pose because I felt that it made her look "sassy" and "fierce" and "fearless" as her body language is open. I felt that this pose helped to very clearly express the stereotypical personality traits of a hip-hop/rap artist. I also added the page number that the artist would feature on so that it enables the reader to access the right page number and enables them to navigate through the magazine.
