final completed magazine

ARTIST RESEARCH

I REASERCHED ON A ARTIST WHO I INCLUDED IN MY MAGAZINE CALLED JOHN ROGER STEPHENS (born December 28, 1978) ARTIST NAME "JOHN LEGEND" WHO INVOLVED HIMSELF WITH A CHARITY WORK.WHEN GRAMMY AWARD-WINNING SOULSTER JOHN LEGEND FIRST READ THE END OF POVERTY BY EARTH INSTITUTE DIRECTOR DR. JEFFREY SACHS, HE WAS SO INSPIRED THAT HE TRAVELED STRAIGHT TO GHANA TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE PROBLEMS FACED BY AFRICAN COUNTRIES.

LEGEND ESTABLISHED THE SHOW ME CAMPAIGN TO RAISE THE REQUIRED FUNDS SOON AFTER HIS FACT-FINDING MISSION, AND PARTNERED WITH SACHS’ MILLENNIUM PROMISE ALLIANCE TO SERVE NEEDY AFRICAN VILLAGES.

I DECIDED TO INCLUDE THE CHARITY INFORMATION TO MY FRONT COVER AS IT CONTRUBUTES TO SOME MUSIC ARTIST'S LIFE STYLE, AND HOW MUSIC IS NOTJUST FOR ENTERTAINMENT BUT IS A SOURCE OF INSPIRATIONS.

inspired by a form of dance (street dance)

this is a photograph i had taken, of a group of my friends. they are doing street dance poses and are tightly held together.

I have taken some photographs of my model doing a (street dance) freeze

I HAD TAKEN PHOTO'S OF MY MODEL WHICH FIT GTHE GENRE OF STREET DANCE (HIP HOP/ R&B/ FUNKY)

IT FITS PERFECTLY AS HER DRESS TYLE IS QUITE FUNKY AND HER MOVEMENTS (FREEZE FRAME) IS A STYLE OF DANCE, THAT IS VERY POPULAR IN GENRE OF R&B AND HIP HOP.

I INTENDED ON INCLUDING THESE PHOTOGRAPHS IN MY MAGAZINE. AS IT CLEARLY EXPRESSES THE GENRE WITH OUT ANY TYPE OF SIGN'S OR TEXT IMPLYING THE GENRE. WHEREAS I FELT THE PHOTOGRAPH WAS NOT THAT APPLYING SO I DECIDED NOT TO INCLUDE IT IN MY MAGAZINE

my samples of eye shadow

I TOOK EXTREME CLOSE UPS, AND CLOSE UPS OF MY MODEL. AS I WAS GOING TO INCLUDE ATLEAST ONE OF THE IMAGES IN MY DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD, I REALLY LIKED THIS IMAGE AS THE EYESHADOW REPRESNTS FUNKY. THE EYE SHADOW REPRESENTS A COMBINATION AND A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT MUSIC AS EACH COLOUR REPRESENTS A DIFFERENT GENRE OF MUSIC E.G. YELLOW COULD REPRESENT COUNTRY MUSIC. BUT IN THE OTHER HAND I FELT AS IF THE IMAGES HAD POOR LIGHTING AND THE PHOTO'S I HAD TAKEN WAS NOT TO THE STANDARD I EXPECT.

I REALLY LIKED THESE IMAGES. BUT I FELT AS IF THE LIGHTING WAS NOT STRONG ENOUGH. ALSO I DID NOT REALLY LIKE THE FACT THAT BOTH MY MODELS EYE'S WERE CLOSED, AND HALF OF MY MODELS BODY HAS BEEN CUT OUT OF THE PHOTOGRAPH.
