Project Monitoring Week Beginning 3rd Feb

This week has gone really well and I managed to get all of my photoshoots done apart from my Yong Farming images as the weather was bad and the shoot will be happening outside. However, this is re-scheduled for Tuesday next week.

My first photoshoot was with my model for my house fire article. I am also using her as my front cover model as I feel this is the most important story in my magazine so I want to use her and also because she looks a bit like the girl in my chosen cover idea. The shoot went really well and I think the images will work effectively in my DPS. I also managed to capture some really good images for the cover, I especially like one I managed to shoot while she was laughing as she looks naturally happy as the shot wasnt posed. Below are some examples of the images I took.
 


My second shoot was then for my Dare to Blog article. I used the same model as I did for my mock ups meaning she knew what I needed to achieve from the shoot. I decided to re-shoot these images as when I took the first set the backdrop was dirty and I really wanted a clean background to the image. However because of how I placed her hair she was impossible to cut out well so I thought it would be best to re-take the images and this proved to be true. I am really pleased with this set of images and they will work a lot better on my DPS than the original. I also took images for the 3rd page of the article. After carrying out my focus group my participants said that they would like the 3rd page to include images of my model and not include logos of websites as I had originally done. For this image I got my model to hold onto a selection of make up in the first image and then a fan of money in the second. The idea is that the images show how a womans passion for make up can be transformed into money through beauty blogging. Below are the images I took at this shoot.
