Types of Magazing Covers

1. Early Magazine Covers- Almost always a painting, They tended to be ethical, Religous, High morals, Some can also be drawings.

2. The Poster Cover- One big picture, no borders, The subject is really clear, Text does not distract from the photo at all, the picture has to be really really good, or really recognizable to catch your attention.
Disadvantages: ZERO entry points, the cover doesnt really say much, If they dont put a great photo not much magazines will sell, RISKY.

3. Pictures Marries to Type- The words help the photo, the words dont interfear with your picture, The words are realated to the photo, You can see the photo better, You DO NOT loose the subject of the photo, It's not as distracting. The WORDS go with the PHOTO.
Disadvantages: You dont know what else is inside, There arent very intrey points into the magazine.

4. In the Forest of Words- Means there is tons of text on the picture. Lot's of color's. Different fonts, Different sizes. Everywhere, (Forest of words)-every where you look theres a word, Something that catches your eye, Lot's of entry points to catch your attention.
Disadvantages: Gives you a headach, Too much to look at, Let the subject be notified, It cover's your photo's,

I like the, two people, how they are formed in the pictures, and how they are showing im guessing love for one another, it's very unique, and it is most definetly something that will fit in the Rolling Stones magizine. I really like about this photo, the uniqueness, and the differenties, also the formal backround in the back, im thinking it's like sand, and it brings the two subjects out alot. Which is really good, the view of the photo is great i couldnt see it any other way myself.

Portrait and self portrait.

Tips:

 Think about your motivation and emotions: Blankly staring at the camera rarely gets good results. Be silly, don’t be afraid to over-act. The worst that can happen is that you fill up your memory card with useless photos; but you might also find yourself with a proper gold-nugget of a self portrait.

 If you’ve got a remote trigger, that’s usually a better and more controllable than trying to use the self-timer.'

 Use a tripod. Seriously. While it’s possible to get good photos while you’re hanging on to your camera at arms-length, it’s a lot easier if you’ve got the freedom to move around a bit.

I like this photo, because the guy is taking pictures, of flowers and the cool part is your already know he's taking photos of flowers, because thats all that's surrounding him. It's really pretty and the pink flowers are amazing looking, they are beautiful plants.

I like this photo, because the moon and the clouds, and the darky dimeness, are so cool. Especially because the two girls are just chillin there, in dark clothes so basiclly they are going with the theme of the picture pretty much they look like the heart of the picture, because with out them in the photo, the photo would look plain.

I will shoot, Melanie Garcia. Outside by the bikes towards the theater, and i will catch her, maybe interacting with the bikes in someway, having fun, or like kneeling by the bikes, or on top of the bike getting ready to go home with her backpack on her shoulder. I think it will be a good photo.

We are back:D

This one was one of my favorite photo's of the year! because i freaking love elephants and i think this is a beautiful.

I love this one and i love the pictures Imogen Cunningham took, i think I'm more interested in her back round of photography, and the reason why she likes it. She wanted to study the anatomy of plants, and this was her way of studying them.

Same with this photo it's one of Imogen Cunningham, and i really do like the way she just takes her pictures. And the way she has her way of studying plants.

The best song of 2010 to me was "Hey Brittney", by Forever The Sickest Kids, I went to go see them at Emo's and i remember that it was just the most funnest amazing time that Ive had, and i would always listen to that song. 

I think, the best movie of 2010, for the late 2010 would be "Get Him To The Greek"

I think that movie is absolutely hilarious and i liked it, for the end of 2010.

The biggest story news of 2010 for me, was the BP (I think) The oil spill that just went all around the gulf, and started killing animals, i think that was pretty big news, because. That's sad that all of the animals were dying because of oil spill, IN there natural habitat. Irrelevant for things to happen like that. 

 

The most important person in 2010 would be my nephew Zachary, and my Father:) I love them, will never stop loving them, and they helped me get through the year, makes me happy!:D



The biggest entertainment of 2010 i would say the show "Jersey Shore" it got really big, and they the people have become like famous, like Ronnie, he's doing commercial ads for his workout program, and Pauly D is starting his own DJ business, Snooki is just famous. I think that was the biggest hit of 2010.

One thing that happened on my Holiday in 2010 that i will not forget is when me and my dad and his wife, went to walmart at like 2 in the morning, to go get diapers for my sisters baby. And i went to wonder off in the electronic section, he found me there, and said "hey what are you looking at". I said "laptops, mom said she would be getting me one hopefully for Christmas". "You want one? ." "of course!!" so he got me a laptop for Christmas, when Ive been asking for like 5 years!

One of my resolutions for 2011 is, learn something new. Do something different. Make Varsity Softball. Get out the house more. :)


I am looking forward to a lot of things, like changing my room around (because we just moved and my room looks plain) Get different types of friends. Me and my madre loosing weight. A lot of different types of things that will make my 2011 different.
