The pioctures above were taken in the drama studio and there are a number of visual aspects (mis-en-scene) which were purposely added to suit the target market, genre and corparate identity of the magazine.
To begin with, my attempt was to make the double spread completely different to the front cover by making it more personal towards the artsit and what she stands for. Which is why I decided to run with a majority black theme because, although black is associated with evil, death and depressing, it can also stand for classy, straight forward and simple and thats the way i wished to portray the artists image. In addition, the gold chain and 'old school' radio was used to appeal to the target auduence because traditionally, in hip-hop, artist are known for wearing expensive jewellery etc... Also, the sweatshirt that shes wearing is another representation for the hip-hop culture/fashion therfore it'll apeal to the target audience.
The first 3 images are a variation of longshots which feature jess doing different poses. Initially my favourite is the first image because shes looking at the radio as a sign of music being important.
The other images are a variation of medium shots, low angle shots and high angle shots however I didnt think they were suitable for a double page spread.
