Organisation of the Location

My magazine shoot is going to be a photo shoot of a popular music artist. The main feature is the artist in this shoot; therefore I wanted to make sure that my set was simple and clean cut. I decided to have my set just a plain white background, this is used in many other artists shoots.

]The white background I used, was one of my walls in my bedroom. I used a wall because there is direct sunlight from my window that hits the wall and highlights it.

This is a picture of my wall before it was set-up for the shoot.

I removed the items from the wall and I also placed a black cloth on the floor to hide my carpet. The reason why I choose a black is because it contrasts with the white wall and also the colour black is a stereotypical rock style colour which fits in with the idea of the shoot. The white background also means that it’s easier to play around with the font styles of master heads and also the white means that I can edit things with more ease.

This is the overall set-up for the shoot.
