Celebrity Influences

Throughout my research and process, I used two main celebrities to influence my work.

Florence Welch (Florence + the Machine) and Amy Winehouse

Using Welch's unique fashion style and Winehouse's make-up and hair-do's I was able to use this as a guidline and inspiration for my model's photos.

You can see that I've used similar poses, clothing and hairstyles for my photos. 

I chose these two particular artists as influences for my media, as they both fall under the same genre of an Indie Alternative for their music and style.

The colours of clothing I also used reflected these models, with Winehouse wearing black and Welch consistently wearing a few brighter and bolder colours. The contrast of the two colours worked well in my piece.

The hairstyles of my model's both reflect these two influences, with their large and vibrant hair.

EVALUATION QUESTION 7

Looking back at your preliminary task (the school magazine task), what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?


 Since beginning my media product by starting with my Preliminary task, I feel as though I have improved massively with my use of photoshop and editing to prove this. As you can see from both my front page and contents, the use of colours, fonts, and photos have improved immensely and is noticeable with my music magazine task.
