Good And Bad Points Of My Double Page Spread Photoshoot

Here is the first attempt at my double page spread photo shoot, although this image is landscape their
are still far to many things wrong with this image. Firstly the lighting is far to bright, it detracts from the dark
and more dreary message of my magazine article. It doesn't look good enough for the final cover. Plus the
wall can be seen.

This is my second attempt at the double page spread shoot, it is closer to the final shot that I want, but
not close enough. I want to make the lighting on the right cover model much darker and although it is darker
than the left cover models face it is still to bright. The lighting on the left cover models face is to bright, I want
the light to look warmer rather than just having it at a quick flash. The wall can be seen as well. 
Here we have some lighting experimentation, I wanted to get the right proportion of lighting here so
we took a close up shot of the arm to get a the camera at the right focus and get a sense of the type of lighting that
would be generated, the lighting here is along the lines of what I want moving it closer to the finished image.
This is another one of my attempts at the double page spread photo, although the lighting is right, the angle that the photo is taken is wrong, firstly it is not on eye level with the cover models and you can see the top of their heads. Finally other things not intended in the shot can be seen.


Here is my final photoshot for my double page spread. Both cover models can be seen clearly,
controllers can be seen easily, the facial expressions are correct helping to convey the serious message of my magazine more and both the cover models are in the frame. However the models
are not quite in the centre but with easy cropping the image will look good and fit the theme well.
