Tanisha-Mai A2 Media Blog: Photoshoot Plan

Photoshoot Plan

What I hope my chosen location, I will be taking pictures of places such as Leister square, Covent Garden, Soho and Odeon because these are places that I see appropriate to capture a glimpse into the theatrical industry that London has to offer.

Capturing images of places from different levels, is something I will exploring prior to creating my front cover as a personal goal is to in capture the bustling atmosphere that makes London’s remarkable West End .

I will also aim to capture all of my images with specification of the focal point being in the centre of the image and the rest being blurred but still distinguishable.

When do I hope to achieve this?

We have scheduled our excursion to London for a weekend in order to obtain the pre-photos, and then establish the shoot from different levels and play around with the focal point of the image. I hope to achieve this and the editing of my image by the 25^th of November, this allows me to select my favorite images and really work with them

The photograph composition is imperative for the front cover of the magazine because it allows us to place the font in the unfocused section of the image, and play around with the title puff demographics, folio and bar code placement.

Where do I hope to achieve this?

My ideal places in London that I hope to capture these images are places such as Soho and Covent garden which are strong complexes for London Theatre, they are fortunately close to one and another, this is better for us as the transition of our equipment will be easier, whilst still capturing London in its beauty. Other places I would like to capture in London are Leister square and Odeon. Ideally I would like to have a focal point for the composition of our photography as the London eye, and large billboards advertising the theatre, this would be really effective if taken at night because typically that is when people visit the theatre, creating the realism that goes with London Life giving me the advantage of capturing the bustling London atmosphere as well as our ideal location. Other places we like to take some focal points of are Landmarks such as big ben or even the 30 St Mary Axe.
