Images taken for poster advertisment

This is the first of two or three photo shoots for my magazine advertisement. I plan on doing this amount to find the best possible image. I went for the basic shots first which feature the artist against a plain white wall so i can apply coloured text  on to the negative space of the background. I did a variety of mid shots and one close up with the artist either in the middle or to the left of the composition. The artist was made to look straight at the camera, to create interaction with his niche audience. I advised him on what clothes to wear so it would fit within the genre of folk, the denim shirt, velvet blazer and hairstyle give him a unique image that would make him noticed.

Mid shot- There's a slight issue with the shadow and the framing of this image as you can see objects to the bottom left and right sides but then can easily be cropped on photo shop.

Mid shot- This mid shot shows the artist making eye contact with the audience as well as his clothes, which indicate what genre of music he is.


Mid shot- The lighting for this shot is too dark for me and one side of his face is darker then the other. The shadows are too harsh and visible and the artist is central and i wanted him either right of the composition.






Close up- I like the close up shot but again half his face s darker then the other and the shadow is quite harsh.
