First Draft

This is my first attempt of doing my master head for my magazine.

Photoshoot

I edited one image on Photoshop. I used YouTube as there was a guide to achieve the look of the photos; to help me edit the photos to make them look more attractive. I would use the Black and white and white effect for my magazine for other images in my magazine.

Photoshoot

My Photo shoot didn't go to plan. One of the flash lights flood light wasn't on as an outcome my photos have come out darker than the usual. I'am going to use a photo editor website to brighten my photos. although my photo's were very dark i'm still going to be able to do my magazine to a good standard.

My Magazine Proposal (Evaluation)

This is my magazine proposal evaluation. The thing i forgot to mention is  the colour of the magazine. The font that i'm going to be using and the colour of it. The main criticisms that i got from my magazine proposal video is that i should of projected my voice and i should of been  more confidence when presenting my magazine. They also said that the ideas that was presented were presented was detailed. In my opinion i think that my magazine proposal was presented to a very good standard. I think my evaluators are correct and it help me create my magazine.

Call Sheet

Studio

We had an induction to the studio in order to take successful shoots for the magazine we will be creating.

I was shown to many different features that i never seen before, therefore this session was extremely useful for me. I was also taught that lights are different and all of them do something different.Also, more features such as point light key lights creating shadow and fill lights.

The camera I was taught to you use was the NIKON D7000 which is 17,000,000 megapixel which will allow me to take pictures up to a high quality and standard. The one thing i found fascinating

was the gold and silver panels which allowed me to give a glimpse of gold on the skin and silver which contoured.

I chose to use a white backdrop, additional to this I was taught how to set the lights up for example there was 6 settings.  1 was the lowest and 6 was the highest.

Afro-beats is an highly embrace genre.Fast rising British Afrobeats artist @sonaman is taking over the UK Afrobeats scene with his triple release of head-banging  tracks.

Surprising us with bangers  Sona has dropped a series of hits . He started off with 'Ijo Sona' in  then he released  'No Wahala' and finally 'Eyy Mama' .All of these tracks  have been making a lot of noise, grabbing the attention of the common Afrobeat lovers.

Killing the music scene right now is @Stormzy1. Stormzy  recently won the a MOBOs for the best grime act. He tweeted his shock of winning the MOBOs and thanked his fans for all the support.
