Group Photo Analysis

        B                                    

A








Above are two of the photo's taken during the group photo shoot, we took a total of twenty images and for various reasons we chose these two as the best ones.

We chose A as it contains all three band members in similar poses and shows a unity among them. the good thing about A is that it relates to the genre in that the majority of the band members have long hair a typical 'rocker' look. By having the instruments in view of the camera is also common in photo's of glam rock bands. By having just the one guitar in full view of the camera we link it to a photo of The Darkness. We placed Will in the middle as he is the shortest and if we placed him on the outside it would throw the image of balance, by having those of similar taller height on the outside it centers the focus.

We chose image B as it was not as serious or posed it was more fun and relaxing, it showed the band members having a 'fight' which is common among rock groups and we played n this to create an image for an advert. The downside of this is that they are posed to far away from the camera. If the image was more of a close up it would have been the better image as it seems to be something you would see on an advert.
