Time Management - Camera Angles

Camera Angles

i originally wanted the main cover camera angle to be from a low angle, as though to show power. but i have decided to go for a normal height, medium close up shot. this is because on the cover of most pop magazines there is a medium close up as shown.

Time Management - Costume

Costume

i spoke to jordan on the 8th of January about the clothes he would wear. i wanted it to be trendy so i went to Jordan's house with him to look at clothes he already had to avoid spending money. i wanted him to wear a white T-Shirt, with a black coat. he would also wear nice suit pants as that is quite fashionable right now. i want him to appeal to the pop genre audience. i wanted his look to almost mimic that of sam smith but without the Blazer.

Time Management - Props

Props

For my props i originally wanted a mic and stand. when i spoke to Mrs Moyner i arranged to have a mic and guitar ready for the 15th of January. i decided to do the shots without the mic stand, and just have Jordan holding the mic. this worked well because if i had the mic stand then the shots would have had to have been from further away, to fit the whole thing.

Time Management - Location

Location

I went around school on Thursday the 7th of january to look at locations for my photo shoot. i wanted to use a space where it will be easy to photo shop the back ground out, but i also wanted somewhere high up so i could get different kinds of shots. i decided to go to the school hall because it has these blocks for the shots. this was because they were high up. i got permission for it and decided on the days i would need it.

Mise En Scene - Camera Angles.

For my cover shot. i will use a low angle, medium close up of Jordan. this is because i want jordan to seem like a big star, so if i use a low angle shot, it will show power, or being superior.

i want it to look like the above image, just the camera will be a bit closer to him

Mise En Scene - Props

For my props, i have decided to use the following.

Microphone
Mic Stand
Guitar.

I'm using these props because i want it to seem like he is singing to an audience, into the microphone. He will also have the guitar, with a strap around his shoulder to support the instrument. i want the guitar to be an acoustic guitar as most solo artists these days use an acoustic guitar.

Mise En Scene - Location

For my location, i'm going to be using the Oldershaw Academy main hall. this is because there will be plenty of props backstage that i can use and i will be editing the back ground out for my magazine as i only want Jordan on the cover.
