I have selected these photos because of the one key element, the guitar. I planned the design of the double page spread and one of the most prominent ideas was having the actor on one side of the page and the guitar crossing over to the over. Due to my singular vision for my double page spread and the kind of angles, editing and framing around it, i was unable to take more varied shots, something of which i will evaluate when the magazine is created. Although i feel that the photos will work well, i could have improved by creating more of a "l" shape with the guitar to clearly outline the area for the considerable amount of text.

Best selection for the contents page of my magazine
I feel that these shots are suitable for the target audience as they are prominent, though they leave enough room for lines of text to accompany them. They would ideally have the background removed for them although it is not a certainty. the equipment, props and location on the walled photos completely fit the genre in tone and the aesthetic, mirroring other prominent rock magazines. It is good but not without areas to strengthen, such as the variety and locations of the shots.
Best selection for Magazine front cover
These are the selected photos of which i will choose to become my front cover, due to the medium close up shot, the lighting being mostly accurate and variety of varying camera angles. All of these photos fit my mise en scene as the guitar, leather jacket and even the wall location signify that the magazine is of the rock genre, which would attract my target audience.

My time management for equipment
For my equipment, i went and asked for the camera as early as possible in order to secure it for the Thursday and subsequent Tuesday of the photo-shoot. The camera used was a Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ28 and is widely considered a high quality camera, able to ensure my photos look as good as it is possible.

My time management for the actors
I arranged my actor's time schedules well despite certain circumstances potentially delaying or even stopping my planned schedule. Jake needed to have a operation on his nose so i had to organise my actors across two days of photo shoots, one when jake was missing and one when he is there. I organised my actors into the correct background and angles.
My time management for the location
Overall i managed my time for the locations well. I was unable to use the green screen i required so i drafted a new schedule and using the main hall and some streets/alleyways instead. We had no problems with the timings as the locations were well within a set distance and time frame.
My time management for the costume
I began organising my costumes required by enquiring to my peers if they had any leather jackets, jeans and boots. Jake and Jordan did, but Zhong lacked the leather jacket. In order to successfully take my shots i had to organise when the actors would bring the costume and for zhong to use one of the other actors jacket.
