Photoshoot









































































Mood Board.


Planning:
This is a mood board that i have created which includes an arrangement of images associated with the stereotypical glamour of Hollywood life. The style/concept i am trying to bring about is the american preppy look in particular, the preppy girl style in which we associate a lot of young female celebrities. These ideas include travelling, Starbucks, latest makeup/clothing trends in this seasons colours as well as the latest style must haves. The attitudes and values include freedom, being carefree and living life to its fullest . This ties in with the american dream however, in this case it is not about having a huge five bedroom house, but rather about fashion: the 2017 American dream. 

Photoshoot - Dresscode Inspiration.















Planning:
I aim to use Vanessa Hudgens' dress-code as an inspiration for the dress-code of my own artist. This style is very casual and up-to-date with the latest trends. Initially, this is the ideal American preppy look. Vanessa Hudgens is an inspiration to many females through both her personality and appearance: young girls hero-worship her and want to look and be like her.  Some of her styles are as follows: floral, sporty, retro, smart and casual etc...

Drafts: Front Cover/ Contents Page/ Double Page Spread.

Within my initial wire frame, i have produced  a draft front cover, contents page and double page spread for my media production in order to help me plan the layout structure for my actual production. I believe that the layout for a magazine plays a significant role in the purpose, accessibility and clarity of a magazine for example, the way in which readers navigate their way around the magazine. 

FRONT COVER
I really like this layout for my magazine front cover because i believe that the main image is nice and clear whilst the title and headlines are still visible. I also believe that a mid-shot would be perfect for the front cover  so that you're able to see the artists face and and the headlines clearly. 

CONTENTS PAGE
I decided to have my contents page layout like this because it is very neat, organised and tidy which will help the reader navigate and find their way around the magazine more quickly and efficiently. It is very important for the contents page to have a clear layout so that the reader is able to find the page they want easily.

DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD
For the double page spread i decided to have a one page interview with Vanessa Hudgens and the second page to include an enlarged image of Vanessa in order to capture the reader's attention when they flick through the magazine. The interview will explain Vanessa's comeback, her soon-to-be released albums, upcoming events and what she's been up to during her time away.
