Casting

  For my environment edition, i used my brother josh, who represents a 17 year old, who wants to see a change in the environment. In the main photos i have took for my magazine, he is seen looking out to see and on mountains, as well as featuring next to historical monuments. I chose Josh as i thought he would look appealing in the photographs, and his tall figure would make it seem attractive. For my Black Lives matter edition, i used my friend Katie to model as a protester, and wants to stand for black lives, as well to see a change in society. I chose her because she is photogenic, and again would look appealing to others.

Environment magazine:   I have chosen to base the photos for my environment magazine in Isle of Arran, Scotland, because of the beautiful scenery, and i think it links well as to what my message will be in the magazine. Some examples of the location include: Black Lives Matter magazine As for my BLM edition, i will base my photos in the town centre of Newcastle, and Whitley Bay, as there have been protests and events about the Black lives matter happening, and i wanted to make it seem as real as possible for my audience. 

Plan B

  My plan A is to complete 2 editions of a magazine on the environment, and the black lives matter issues going on. I still want to keep these topics, as i feel deeply that they need to be portrayed more in the media. Therefore, i will try and stick to this decision and put this across in my final editions.  If my casting doesn't work out with my current models, i will chose people close to me that can do it in limited time, as well as shoot my photos in local areas to save time.  For my environment magazine, i shot my photos in Scotland, meaning i would have to change my location to Whitley Bay for example, as i was in Scotland for a limited amount of time. This would probably affect the quality of my photos as the scenery in Scotland was much more high quality/ photogenic than in Whitley Bay. However, Whitley Bay still has some suitable locations i could shoot my photos such as St Marys lighthouse and Whitley Bay beach which i could use in my magazine. As for my BLM edi...
