Costumes and Props

For my main image for my college magazine front cover, I used my good friend, Jacob. I wanted him to look busy and look student-like, like working, listening or reading. I chose his to be sat down, reading a book. For the camera angle, I made sure that it was a meduim close up. The only props I used was the book. The costume, I thought was very relevant because you can tell it's a college student as he isn't wearing uniform. I find that the final photgraph I used, out of the origional three, fitted all the aspects I needed and I felt that the picture looked appropiate and effective but yet simple.
