For the make-up, we felt that having a simplistic make-up with maybe just one feature highlighted (which links to the research) and this will be the eyes as these are the model's most prominent features. The lips will be a pale colour, and there will be some emphasis on the model's cheeks with blusher.
The model's hair will be kept natural and curly as we feel this will work well with the natural, simplistic look we are going for. By using the natural light as well, this will also add a halo-like effect to the model when the sun hits her hair.
In order to make the model look even more, earthy, we have decided to have a floral garland headband in the model's hair, much like this one:
For the model's outfit, we plan to have the model dressed in a flowy white, 3/4 sleeved top. We feel that this will link well to the video and maintain the simplistic and pure effect that we gained in the video by using the white dress. The dress that we use for the music video may be used as well if we decided to do a long shot.
Front Cover:
After looking at our research, we have decided that a close-up shot of the model's face will be the best shot to use for our front cover.
Inside Picture:
The inside picture will be a long shot of the model, and this is where we will use the dress from our music video.
CD:
The CD itself will remain plain as this is most like the research we have looked and we feel this will link well with the simplicity of our other ancillary tasks.
Back:
The back is going to be a mid-shot of the model, however we plan to have the model turning away slightly from the camera in order for the sun to capture her portrait.
Poster:
The poster will feature a mid-shot of the model, most like from her chest/shoulders upwards as this fits well with the research we have looked at. We still have to plan what colour and what type of font and the general lay-out of the poster.
For all of our ancillary tasks, we plan to use the natural light again like we did in our music music video and have the model standing outside sort of interacting with some form of nature as this will link to our overall "earthy" look we wish to have.
Research by Katie
I like the proof of planning the top the model will work. The two pictures are very unified. The same cannot be said for the natural makeup. First I see variation on a theme since one model has slightly purple eye shadow and another has different colouration. Secondly I do not see the point of researching the natural makeup for a black woman when your model is white. The research must get to the specific. For someone like the model you have what is the makeup to use?
