Magazine recreation study(Pre-liminary exercise)

 i-D is a popular British based magazine that has BI-monthly issues which focus on art, music, fashion in terms of audience they cater to a younger probably under 30 audience.

for a school media project I chose to recreate this magazine.

The Study

• I wanted to explore closeup potraiture which is why i decided to choose this image in particular
• the cover model is Alexa chung who is known as an internet personality although she does many things
• 
  
• Based on similarweb.com site traffic results the majority demographic that interacts with i-D is mostly female and ranges between mostly 18-34 which seems to be a recurring theme in art &culture magazine
• here pop culture or internet culture is more prevelant as compared to the material culture in the arts africa magazine.

The Study Copy Result

• The image shown was taken by me and all the editing was done by myself, in terms of things i found difficult while editing making the lighting similar was not easy as I had to add in artificial shadows to the original image.
• it was relatively easy to find the fonts as most were already pre-installed on adobe photoshop
• overall the result I'm happy with and can take what I learned in terms of positioning and camerawork into making my magazine.
