Dear Moderator

Please follow below, my foundation portfolio: G321 for my media coursework.
My brief was to reseaerch, plan, create, and evaluate my own music magazine pages (cover, contents, and double page spread). Please feel free to navigate my blog using the labels specified on the right side of the page. I chose to create a music magazine which focusses on musical genres such as punk, rock, and metal. My magazine is called "Rock Legends." It is similiar to magazines like "NME" and "Kerrang!".

Kind Regards Jack Collier.

Photoshoot

Below are the pictures from my photo shoot. I got Jac (the guy in the photos) To stand in front of my poster wall as it was a very rock orientated background. I also got him to stand by a wall outside nearby with graffiti on it to symbolise rebellion and angst. In the photos i asked him to look serious and almost angry to reflect the dark, aggressive nature of the music. I will edit and change the lighting on the pictures i end up using on the magazine page to symbolise a dark metal/rock theme.

I would recommend that you retake the photos as they do not convey the rock genre. You have clearly worked hard on this and it is improving but you need to get the genre across, work on the font and use of colour. Go back to your RMAs in order to help you with this.
