All images convey or represent something wether its a style of music or feeling or something else. This padlet of my favourite images from our main photo shoot shows how we created different meanings in all our images. Below each image I wrote what their connotations, denotations, and what type of shot they are. One of the best is the second one along from the bottom left, the very close up shot type gives the photo a sense of foreboding and danger. We learnt about canted angle photos and how to produce them. Our group took a few canted photos but the bike mirror was the best one, it also shows framing and close and wide angle as it is close to the mirror but inside the frame it is quite wide. The image has the narrative of a biker lifestyle represented through denotations of a bike helmet and a motorbike, the connotations of this is are a tough and cool biker. It also could convey a outlaw life style. Using camera and Mise-en-scene to create a powerful story is key to a good photo, it shapes the photo a gives it a good narrative.

Looking on to making my magazine cover the practice of talking photos like this will help me to produce a well thought out image to capture the audience’s attention and needs.
