The photographer took test shots of the costumes that will be worn by Jamie, the lead singer of the band Mirage, for an upcoming magazine cover and spread. The costumes include a black v-neck top, skinny jeans, denim jacket, and aviator sunglasses to portray Jamie as modern yet retro. The cover shot will show Jamie's top half while the spread will show his full outfit. Additional test shots were taken of a female soul singer wearing long black clothes to portray sophistication and emotion, resembling the style of Adele. Both shoots were done against a white wooden wall to provide a neutral background focusing on the artists.

Homework 3 - Test Shots
1. Test Shots
For my test shots, I have taken a series of pictures which resembled the costumes which
‘Jamie’ the lead singer of the band Mirage will be wearing when he is appearing on my front
cover and double page spread of my magazine Rewind.
The costumes include a black deep v-neck top, skinny jeans, a sleeveless denim jacket and a
pair of aviator sunglasses. This resembles him as quite hip and modern but also keeping with
the 90’s retro style with the aviator sunglasses made popular through the late 1980s film
Top Gun and the denim jacket made famous by the punk movement.
The image appearing on the front will only
show a head and shoulders shot, so will
include the top half of the denim jacket
and the black V-neck. But the double page
spread includes a full body shot so all will
be shown.
2. An image appearing on the contents page, will appear of a blonde lady, a soul singer. She
will wear long black clothes to show the sophisticated and emotional side to music. The
style and music icon for this female artist is someone similar to Adele.
She will wear a long black top, with long sleeves. Also a long pair of leggings.
The setting I will use for my photos will be a white wooden
wall, which will be edited on the front cover but in the double
page spread may end up not being edited, or in another
setting. One with a wooden wall.
The wooden wall resembles a
rural state, which symbolises
the type of music which the
artist is singing for. The white
background is quite neutral so
you focus mainly on the artist
instead of the background
image. This is because the artist
is the most important
