Research of magazine layouts!

Before I dive into doing this photo shoot I want to have some sort of idea of the layout of my Magazine, so I know what position to take the photos best and how to lay them out with my research!




I like this layout because it shows a main picture of the person been interviewed and on the other page states the interview with a subtitle which is a quote with main word in Bold lettering! This magazine layout look clean cut and professional!





This isn't my favorite interview layout as I think it looks to literal and tacky! But on the other hand I like how they have decided to lay it out with a main title followed by interview and a fantastic picture the chosen person!







When I start constructing my magazine article on Photoshop, I will be paying close attention to make sure the layout turns out something like this. It looks professional and would suit a high street fashion magazine!
With a professional picture on the left followed by interview, pictures and quotes to make the interview look real and not staged!

Experimenting with different lightings!

For the studio lighting on the camera I used the settings 'Black and white' I think black and white photos are the best sort of photos because it catches the contrast.
HAHA! Attempted to use the soft box to filter the light!
Experimenting with people and cameras.
