Test Shot Analysis This photo the lighting is quite harsh because it makes his face a lot lighter and makes him look a little yellow. This photo I will use for my magazine front cover, as it is a very striking image. I will darken the photo and up the contrast. The black background makes it easier to edit the photo. A disadvantage to the background is that you can see the brickwork. In this photo the lighting is quite good but I am not a fan of the facial expression he is making, therefore I will not be using this photo in my final piece. Another disadvantage is the bricks in the background. In this photo I turned the lights out and turned the flash on my camera, which made the face shine more and makes it stand out more. I did not like this photo because the face shone too much and also the hair didn’t go right in this. For this photo I took it in a dark room with just the flash on and edited it to put in in black and white. I wanted the model to pose like he has done and I wanted him to look like a rock star in some way with the buttons on his shirt undone. The background of the bricks adds effect to the image this time and gives it a raw feel to it.

Test  Shot  Analysis    

This  photo  the  lighting  is  quite  harsh  because  it  makes  his  face  a  lot  lighter  and  makes  him  look  a  little  yellow.  This  photo  I  will  use  for  my  magazine  front  cover,  as  it  is  a  very  striking  image.  I  will  darken  the  photo  and  up  the  contrast.  The  black  background  makes  it  easier  to  edit  the  photo.  A  disadvantage  to  the  background  is  that  you  can  see  the  brickwork.              In  this  photo  the  lighting  is  quite  good  but  I  am  not  a  fan  of  the  facial  expression  he  is  making,  therefore  I  will  not  be  using  this  photo  in  my  final  piece.    Another  disadvantage  is  the  bricks  in  the  background.                  In  this  photo  I  turned  the  lights  out  and  turned  the  flash  on  my  camera,  which  made  the  face  shine  more  and  makes  it  stand  out  more.  I  did  not  like  this  photo  because  the  face  shone  too  much  and  also  the  hair  didn’t  go  right  in  this.                  For  this  photo  I  took  it  in  a  dark  room  with  just  the  flash  on  and  edited  it  to  put  in  in  black  and  white.  I  wanted  the  model  to  pose  like  he  has  done  and  I  wanted  him  to  look  like  a  rock  star  in  some  way  with  the  buttons  on  his  shirt  undone.  The  background  of  the  bricks  adds  effect  to  the  image  this  time  and  gives  it  a  raw  feel  to  it.

 This  photo  I  wanted  the  model  facing  the  other  way.  The  reason  I  didn’t  use  it  was  because  I  didn’t  like  it  when  places  on  my  piece  and  it  didn’t  seem  to  fit  with  the  theme  of  the  page.  The  photo  has  too  much  light  in  it  and  his  face  is  lit  up.  Another  disadvantage  is  that  you  can  see  the  bricks  in  the  background.                I  decided  not  to  use  this  photo  because  firstly  I  had  already  used  these  two  models  on  the  other  two  photos,  so  it  wouldn’t  look  right  if  they  were  used  again  in  the  same  photo.  Also  you  cannot  see  the  females  face  from  this  angle.
