Photo shoot for magazine

For the images used within my main feature story of the magazine, I chose to shoot my made up band in a photography studio against a white background. This gave me a huge amount of control and variation when it came to lighting as all the levels and type of light is completely  controllable though use of soft boxes and spot lights.


This is my collection of  unedited images from my photo shoot. i chose to have a verity of shots within the same location to allow my magazine to have a unifying set of images running throughout the main feature story whilst having the verity of positions. taking inspiration from the band '5 Seconds Of Summer i chose to have position the models in some shots as slightly comical to show how they have fun and in others i chose to have some more serious images to show the bands professional side. 
This is an image of the lighting rig which i set up for my photo shoot. It consists of two soft box lights angled into the center and a spotlight centered directly in the middle to allow for a bright center of the image where the band will be centered and the soft box light the surroundings and backgrounds. to give a clear overall lite image. The infinity wall was used to give make it seem as if the band where within no space to allow for all the text to be placed around and not be interfere or have the eye of the reader follow any lines of a traditional room. These are known as leading lines which can distract from the subject of the image so the use of the infinity wall (wall with curved edges) to eliminate the rooms corners.
