Celebrity Magazine Cover

Celebrity Magazine Cover


 
S    Summarise the music celebrity you have created
     The music celebrity I have created is called Cherish. She is in the pop scene producing music for RnB and pop listeners. She is quite loud, personality-wise and is a fashion icon throughout the music industry. She is being used to demonstrate that celebrities come in all forms and they do not have to be all made up and stylised all the time.


      Evaluate how you have constructed the representation of your celebrity through your cover image and cover headline/text (denotation/connotation of text and image).
      For my cover image I used a white smoke background and pink-to-blue gradient effect on my masthead. Everything is more sophisticated than the celebrity's costume. The text above that says: 'The Evolution  of Music' projects that people in the music industry can be normal people just like everyone else, it's not about what they look like but simply the music they're making and its effect on others.

     Analyse how far you have used and/or challenged stereotypes of gender/race/age/sexuality in your cover.
      My cover challenge stereotypes because it is displays someone who has ethnic minority and is female. Instead or a glamorous costume she appears in simple plain clothing while showcasing some makeup but not extremely bold. Furthermore her hair is not excessive either in contrast to the star's personality and usual everyday wear which is normally more extravagant.
I
      Reflect on the production/editing process.  Are you pleased with the end result?Identify what is successful about your shot?  What would you have done differently in hindsight? 
I    I took quite a few shots to then select which one I liked best to show what I wanted it to indicate. The editing process was a little difficult at first as a person who hasn't been able to edit well in the past. However, as time progressed, I found it easier and was able to edit quicker. I quite like the end result as it has delivered what I wanted it to show so I am satisfied. My shot managed to capture the art of simplicity in the star in what she is wearing and what she looks like. In hindsight, I think I would have like to have worked the lighting more to cast shadows around the face of the celebrity more, maybe on one side of her face leaving the other side in full lighting.
