Photoshoot planning-Simple analysis and shots needed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the magazine cover from the Kerrang! music magazine from 2009. The main picture is a very effective picture as you can see 3 members of Green Day very clearly in a close up. This is also effective as it makes the cover eye catching as well as unique. The image is also very clear and professionally done. We could use a similar set up as this as the picture is well shot and interesting. This would be a good idea to use on one of the website pictures or one inside the digipak.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is a picture of All Time Low. This is an effective picture as it is clear, the band are easily seen, and also well lit. This is another very effective shoot as it is on a white background and still looks good, this is an idea we could use in our photoshoot as we may not need another background.

Close ups of each member

Group shot of members

Mid shots of each

A compilation of these shots will be very useful

Risk Assessment

Location-Courtneys house

Risk	Risk level 1-5	What is the risk	How to reduce the risk
Picture frames	3	The picture frames could fall off the walls.	We will take the pictures off the walls so the risk of them falling off is reduced to 0.
Sharp corners on the fireplace	3	If someone trips and falls onto this they could get seriously injured.	To lower the risk of this we will make all cast and crew members aware of this risk.
Wires on the floor	4	This is a tripping hazard if any loose wires are on the floor.	We will move all wires out of the way and if any wires are attached to the camera we will make the cast and crew aware of them and move them out the way as much as possible.
The TV	1	The TV could fall if the stand is knocked.	To reduce this risk we will keep the filming away from the TV as much as possible.
The camera equipment	3	If cast or crew members aren’t looking where they’re going they could trip over the tripod or any other equipment we have on the day.	To lower this risk no members of cast or crew (who are not using the camera) will go near the equipment unnecessarily.

Location- The Celler Bar

Risk	Risk level 1-5	What is the risk	How to reduce the risk
Tables and chairs	2	There are multiple tables and chairs around the bar; these could easily be tripped on by the actors and crew.	Make sure all chairs and tables are out of the main walkway.
Pictures on the wall	2	There are a few pictures on the wall, these could easily fall off if they and knocked and cause injury to anyone hit as well as a tripping hazard.	Either make sure you are clear of the pictures or take them down and put them in a safe place.
Mirror	4	There is a large mirror hanging on the wall. This is a major hazard as it could fall off and hurt someone as well as shatter and scatter glass on the floor. It would also create a tripping hazard as well as glass shattering	Move the mirror to a safe position and be especially careful during transport.
Wires	4	Near the stage area, there are wires on the floor as well as on the walls, these are tripping hazards and are relatively hard to see so are an extreme hazard.	You can reduce the risk by making sure that everyone knows where each wire is, and if possible, move them out of the way.
Glass on the bar itself and bottles.	3	As it is a bar, there are many items that are made of glass, these can be sharp and shatter when dropped. We must make sure no to touch them or drop them on the floor.	Keep away from the area filled with glass as much as possible.
Electrical equipment and lighting	3	There is a lot of high powered lights and stage equipment and instruments such as key boards and amps. If these are plugged in an moved, they could start a fire if the circuit is damaged.	Make sure you only move the item when it is not plugged in and no liquid is near it.
Tripods and cameras	3	The tripods and cameras could cause a tripping hazard if they are not seen or are in an unsafe area.	Make sure everyone knows where the cameras and equipment are and keep clear of them when not in use.

Website analysis

This is the homepage of Pop Punk band All Time Low. We can see it has all the stereotypical conventions of a band page as it has tabs with different information on it, the band name and some images as well as advertising merchandise on it. This is very conventional as it is a layout used by many bands under the same genre as well as some bands not in the genre. The colour red is also conventional as it is not too bright or a too dark colour, this contrasts between bright colours and dark colours. However, we can see, whilst the background is a nice colour, its design is rather bland; this could lead it to be seen as less interesting.

 

 

 

This is another pop punk bands website, this time, We The Kings website. We can see it is more eye-catching than the All Time Low one, this is because it has a black and white pictured background, showing the band, but colour image in the centre. This makes the centre stand out more from the background.  However, where it is more eye catching, the information on the site is rather lacking as it only has tour dates and a store on it, this makes it not very informative and lacklustre of information.

 

This is the Dead by April homepage, they are an alternative metal band. Compared to the pop punk websites, this one uses darker colours but all together, has more information on it with even more tabs with even more information on, a very informative band website.  The darker colours of the website reflect the genre as it has a heavier, darker sound than pop punk. Also, compared to the pop punk websites, it is more visually eye catching as the background is a very interesting picture that looks good, as well as allowing to let the other parts on the page also look good.
