Props that were used in my photographs.

Here are all the props I used for my images that are in my magazine.
This guitar was a prop used by Brad, who I have created a new artist who is currently doing really well in the charts called Cameron Carter. This guitar was owned by Brad.   

In this image Scott is wearing a pair of headphone that I borrows from my friend. These were used to create the effect of Scott being connected to music and being a DJ. 

Here are some DJ decks that I borrowed from my media teacher Mr. Bird. This was to link with the idea of being a DJ and creating a section in my magazine about 'how to become a DJ'.

Here you can see my model Polly Sargent has half here face red and the other half green. I used to lighting effects in the setting called The Playstation in my school to create this unique and interesting, strong image.
 The last prop i used was the microphone and the microphone stand. This was the school and was used in The Playstation again so I was able to borrow that and create the idea that my model Amy Sloman was a singer.

All these props were kindly lent to me by my fellow students and you can see that all props used in an image really create a vibe and make the difference.

I have noted down here all of the props that were used in my images that feature in my magazine. I have described them and photographed them, as well as saying what they were used for and who they were used by. A prop can add realism to a photo and making it more believable to the audience.
Each of my props are connected to music which I feel is very important for my magazine, although the lighting is not a musical prop it is a prop made for anything, but my other props show that my magazine is all about the music, there are no props to take away the image that there is musical inspiration taken from the photo to help influence the magazine of its modern genre. For example, the DJ decks and the Headphone are items in which are very modern and would be a interest in my readers, therefore, even with my props I am thinking about my target audience and my genre for my music magazine.
