Mise-en-scene
Mise-en-scene
For the general College magazine, I'm having a female or male student, which will show that it is appealing to the student audience. The sun should be shining in order to make the magazine look positive and more attractive to the audience (a rainy day photo would look depressing and might put the audience off). The headline will be "Highest Attendance Records this year". To match this, the main image will be a student holding a folder implying to the audience that she is ready to learn. She should be smiling at the camera to show that she is enjoying learning at Wyke and enjoys attending. She should also have a rucksack and should be in casual clothing to show that she is just an ordinary, hard working student. Students should be out of focus in the background to show that attendance is at a high.
Location Ideas
-Next to the Wyke college sign
-Waiting for a bus
-In the Wyke courtyard
-Writing in a classroom during lesson
-Student in recording studio
-Student sat with friends chatting in courtyard.
-Student outside one of the four buildings.

These are 2 of the 3 select tools:
The Quick selection allows you to select a part of an image which you have previously clicked.

I then inserted a purple box and changed the opacity of the layer to 72%. I then double clicked the layer and selected Stroke, to choose the border of the banner/ masthead.
