Class Notes

Planning a first practice magazine.
My magazine will be called the LCPost and it will target the audience of Lutterworth College and it will inform them of what is happening around the school in the different subjects and activities such as music, sports, after school activities and more.

In the same lesson we watched the video below on taking pictures for our magazine and learnt how the different lights worked and how they affected the overall outcome of the photo when taken and how to make the person stand out and how to create different moods in a photo.


We learnt about three different kinds of lights and how they worked, the key light, fill light and the hair light.

Key Light: This is the main light of all three of them and it is always needed so the subject that is being pictured can be seen properly and it puts focus on the subject.
Fill Light: The fill light is on the other side of the subject shining light on them so fill in the shaded parts of it to make it fuller and can be seen properly and has a more natural light to it and makes it more realistic. This is sometimes turned off to create a more dramatic and moody kind of picture because it creates a shadow and makes the frame darker.
Hair Light: The hair light and a light down from above and makes the subject stand out a lot more and separates the outline of the subject from the background.
