Actors, locations and props

1. Actors, locations and props

2. Actors
• For my magazine I was thinking my actor(s) would be a student of
sixth form because it will be easier to take pictures.
• For the front cover I am going to use a solo artists meaning I will have
to find one actor although I am going to use bands in the contents
page so I will need to find more actors for that.
• I am basing my magazine to be a rock magazine, after doing research
a lot of the front covers include bands however some include solo
artists.

3. Location
• The location that I will take pictures is going to be at Nicholas
Chamberlaine school. This is mainly because it will be easier to take
the pictures of the actors as they attend that school.
• For the location I wanted a plain background because I like the look of
a plain background. From my research I looked at a magazine that has
a plain background and I also did this in my preliminary task as I think
it looks very professional as a magazine front cover. Another location I
might use is the stage, in the main hall.

4. Props
• I’m not sure about the props I am going to use in my magazine. The
props I may use is a green screen so that the background of the
picture is plain. If I use a solo artist for my magazine I will use a guitar
however if I have a group of people/band then I won’t use any props.
