Draft feature article

my magazine will have a double page spread, featuring an image of my model on a motorcycle, the draft feature article will have an article and an interview about my model, Nate. Down below I have planned my article, it talks about his past with his old music partner and how the separation of the music duo will effect his music career in the music industry.

first draft:

all the way from Aberdeen right up north a rock duo was born, this duo had 2 of the futures most popular rockers of the modern world, Caleb king and Nate Le Messurier. these 2 started out in a makeshift studio in Nate’s parents garage using second hand instruments from the thrift shop down the road. At first their song weren’t getting any news or recognition until the release of their first album in 2009 when they were both just 16 called “Drums and Daggers”

months after their first album the separated due to fights on what their next move should be after when their first album got over 500,000 views in 7 weeks. A few comments from Nate himself from an interview about this issue way back when. “I wanted to wait a few more months before thinking of buying a studio but Caleb was adamant that we increase the quality of our music as soon as, this argument went on for a week or so until he grab his stuff and straight up left without a word, he took half the money and bought a studio, I didn’t hear from him until I made my first few million dollars” he also spoke about how surprised he was when he saw himself rising up the rock music charts and was proud to see himself go from a garage to a million dollar studio.

We also asked Nate about some of his albums and songs and if they meant anything or the names were just for fun, he told us that his album “Elevator To Hell” symbolizes the decent of his mood and success when Caleb King left the duo and his hit song “Bullseye” is about how he got his life back on track and his music was becoming more and more successful and hitting the right spot every new song release.

In his future he will try to keep his music going as long as he can to keep his fans happy and rocking and is hoping that very soon he will have a few live concerts and tours planned, he wants his music to be a legacy that will be known to all the generations after him.

in conclusion his life is the embodiment of the phrase “Rags to Riches” from his parents garage to a multi million dollar penthouse and studio, from a broken duo to a hit singer in just a few years and from being unknown to everybody knowing of him, Nate will keep working for as long as he can to become the top singer, he will have his falls but in the end his goal is the top and that is where he is going.

Months after their first album they separated due to fights on what their next move should be, as a result of their first album getting over  500,000 views in 7 weeks.  At the time Nate revealed, ,  “I wanted to wait a few more months before thinking of buying a studio but Caleb was adamant that we increase the quality of our music as soon as.  This argument went on for a week or so until he grabbed his stuff and straight up left without a word He took half the money and bought a studio, I didn’t hear from him until I made my first few million dollars”

Here are my photos from my shoot with Nate for my classic rock magazine cover, overall the shoot went pretty well but had to be cut short due to bad weather, thus I didn’t have too many options to use for my photos but I chose this photo below because it had the most detail and it captured the right pose and the right facial expression that fits with the theme of rock.
