The casting for the photo shoots that will get the images for my fashion magazine is incredibly important.
Those that are casted for the cover images will become the face of each edition - they are the people that my audience will see first. They represent my fashion magazine. As a result, it is vital that they fit the style, and are appealing to my target audience of ‘a culturally sophisticated, 16-25 class AB demographic’.
First Edition:
Cover:
The cover star of the first edition of my fashion magazine will be Emma Symon. Based in Bristol, she graduated from the University of Leeds with a First in Human Geography last year and now spends her time creating content for the lifestyle blog she started whilst at university. The recent rebrand of her website means that she is also having a fresh start, like my fashion magazine.
Contents Page:
Symon will also feature on the contents page of the first edition of my fashion magazine. Cover stars are often present on the contents pages of fashion magazines as they are the people that have drawn in consumers. It is important that they are seen to be throughout the magazine as it will remind my audience of why they purchased my fashion magazine, and where they can find the cover story.
In addition, there will be an image of Team Unique on the contents page of the first edition of my fashion magazine as ‘The Unique Story’ will be included. This gives my audience an insight into the creators of what they are reading, making it more personal. I will be in the image, alongside Ulani, Macenzie and Sandra.
Second Edition:
Cover:
The cover star of the second edition of my fashion magazine will be Matt Catheline. Catheline may seem like the average 17 year old, but he is an up and coming model. He is just like the target audience of my fashion magazine, and this will be his first solo cover.
Contents Page:
Alternative images of Catheline will be included on the contents page of the second edition of my fashion magazine for the same reason as Symon’s images also featuring on the contents page of the first edition.
As well, there will be images of Catheline with other models such as Oliver Cook as the feature his images will be part of will involve multiple models. By including images such as these on the contents page, my audience will be shown what they can expect from the feature and edition and the inclusion of a number of models will allow various looks to be showcased.
