Today I started taking the pictures to go on the front cover of my school magazine. I took the pictures that I thought would be appropriate to go on the front cover so he took pictures that he felt would be appropriate for are front cover such as entrance of the school and the new common room. After I took the pictures I looked at them and analysed them so I could evaluate whether or not they need cropping because maybe the images are to big and what kind of lighting there is on the photo so whether it was natural light or if we wanted to change it and use a different kind of lighting so make it look better. I also explained the connotations so what the picture shows and what effects it gives and the reason why we took the photo in the first place for example we took the photo of the entrance of the school to use as are front cover picture because as well as we have made the logo bigger we also have on the background of are front cover Bodmin college.

I took this image because I thought it would go well as my background of the the front cover this is because its a clear picture of the entrance and the reader will be able to see that it is Bodmin colleges magazine because you can see the Bodmin college on the building.
I took this photo because I wanted to show everyone the new extension on the common room because not many people apart from the current 6th form so I thought it would be a good opportunity for everybody to see the new images of the common room.
I like the choice of images. The mise en scene of the first one is great and I love the composition. The leading lines take the eye into the shot. It reminds me too of the Beatles' "Abbey Road" cover (iconic- check it out) Clever to use the common room on the cover. The kids lower down the school will be intrigued and really want to buy the mag so they can see it.
