Using Mise-en-scene

Since I didn't have a person to model for me, I decided to take pictures of my dog instead. I still put a little beanie on him to make up for a costume and I took these pictures while he was playing with his toy. I did this so the audience would be able to see his authentic playfulness. These pictures were located in my backyard using the sun as the lighting.

You can still use Mis-en-scene with dogs because you are able to portray them in a certain light. These pictures convey my dog, Toby as sweet, fun, and playful. Furthermore, Mis-en-scene creates meaning in pictures because you are able to grasp the feeling the photographer is trying to exude by placing their model in a certain location with specific outfits/ makeup looks.

Because Ashley fed into this preconceived idea of how a "truly...

Evaluating Preliminary Task

Evaluation: The preliminary task gave me the opportunity to improve my creative skills and expand my knowledge of photoshop/ photo editing. It took longer than expected because I had to ensure that the color schemes fit my theme, the fonts depicted the feeling and message I wanted to convey, and that the pictures were placed in a way that would attract a wider audience. Layout: The layout of my cover magazine followed all the necessary conventions. I used this picture of my puppy because it portrays him as sweet and playful. He looked comfortable and happy and I thought it would attract more dog lovers. Placing him in the center was the best option for my magazine because it allowed me to place the cover lines around him without directly covering any part of that image. The masthead is dark green and right above the cover model. I chose green because the picture was taken outside and blends right in with the grass. Additionally, cover lines are placed on the left of t...
