Dear Moderator

Welcome to my AS Media Studies blog. I have created a college magazine as a preliminary task, and created a music magazine for my main task.

My research and planning began September 2011
My magazine production began January 2012
I then did my evaluation in March 2012

My completed magazine is below

I hope you enjoy reading this.

Thank you.

Research and Planning: Test shots with SLR cameras

 The inside picture with the grey background has a flash on, which enhances the image indoors. This enlightens Holly's facial expressions, making them clearer, showing the pose that she has. It is zoomed to be a medium close up. The zoom is so clear, even the material the jumper is made out of can be seen.

 This image didn't need a flash, so was taken with a distorted background, focusing on Holly and the balcony. It makes the design of the balcony very clear, as well as Holly's expression, whereas the ceiling is less clear, since I used the focusing tool.
 Outside, a flash is not needed as the natural light is already bright enough. The zoom and focus can still be altered however, in order to see the two in more detail.
The camera can be zoomed and re-focused for pictures from different distances, and shot types. The medium close ups are easy to modify, and from different distances, as this shows. I took the camera further back, and zoomed further in order to show more of the background, in this case the white doors.

The colour within these photographs are all very clear, with a very strong distinction between each colour, even where Holly and Karishma's arms overlap in the image, the shadow doesn't blur the distinction between each of their arms, as it might with other cameras. The definition of each feature within the photos is much clearer than within my college magazine photos.
