1. I decided to use the
same model from my
front cover and
contents page for my
double page spread to
keep a consistent
theme throughout my
magazine, which is
promoting India as a
new upcoming artist
with lots ofpotential.
I wanted to create
an urbanfeel from
my double page
spreadlayout,
format and photos
therefore Idecided
to dress India in an
informal yet rather
trendy way, with an
all black outfit to
signify her
determination and
deep passion for
music which
contrasts well with
her pink timberland
shoes.
2. The pink
timberland boots
are a significant
part of the photo
shoot as
timberlands are
often regardedas
a working mans
shoe which
represents the
male dominance
the music
industry, in
particular within
the R&B genre,
also the fact that
the timberlands
are pink signifies
Indias feminity
and presence.
