Diary Entry: 4th October

To start the lesson off me and my teacher had a one to one discussion about my blog and any improvements that needed to be made. He was very pleased with the progress and said all documents were up to a high standard. This meeting was very brief as all the feedback was written.

After having a meeting with my teacher me and Lauren discussed the photo shoot for all of our print artifacts. We have booked Monday 8th October for the photoshoot and it will be located in an unfurnished flat which implies it is very old. This location was founded by Lauren due to knowing the landlord and he agreed for us to take pictures here. This place was chosen because it fitted with the genre of the music- Grunge. As well as discussing the date and place we spoke about what the main cover girl would wear. Three images would be taken and we wanted to have three different outfits to make the printed artifacts different and appealing because the shots are not the same. This clothing atire was chosen because the colours fit in with the genre of music as well as the main girl Taylor Momsen's personal style, we therefore wanted to recreate this with our own twist.

Front Cover- Black lacey dress, leather jacket, ripped tights and high heels.

Back Cover- Jumper, vest and ripped lights.

Magazine- Black jeans, vest, high heels and maybe leather jacket.

Near the end of the lesson we discussed our previous work and felt we could get better shots therefore on late notice we decided to re-shoot the footage from Friday 28th September. We contacted our casts during the lesson and asked if they could meet us to film, we were fortunate that netiher had nothing to do and happily agreed. Once finishing school we went to reshoot the footage and it was better to do it again because the weather was duller which added to the sadness of the opening as well as we knew exactly what to do to ensure our shots were clear and fitted together.
