Language and register

register means and refers to the style of language employed by a publication. The registers you use when talking to your friends or when talking to a child are very different. We use these different registers or styles of language all of the time, adapting and adjusting as we go. Print publications must decide on appropriate register and this becomes one of the defining features of the publications.
Its also the term used to described  the type of images and lanuage is used as some magazines for example some would have swear words like a rock magazine, but magaqzinews like vogue would not have swearing in them becasue its a completely different genre.

In my work im going to use a specfic type of language and register so it appeals to the audience im aiming at more. This is beacsue i dont want to have the wrong content or look as it wont appeal to my target market. For example oi would not have childish language in my magazine or hipster language as its not mainstream. Ther sort of magazine i have created is a rough and completely none mainstream magazine so swearing and specific termonolgy will be used.Thios is why my genre of magazine is known to have edgy titles and sontreversial headiong. Aftert studying other magazines simliar to my genre i came to the conclusion this would appeal the best ,as my magazine is different quirky and very much repleing the typical genres we hear on the radio and at partys.

Image plan music magazine


Image plan

The image I am going to use is of a famous Dubstep/electronic music producer. He works alone and produces some of the world’s best dance music. His name is Jak kerr otherwise known as “WOMbajak” he started making Dubstep, electronic and dance music at a very young age of just 8, when he used to scratch all of his dads vinyl’s making out to be a DJ.  At the age of 12 he got his first set of decks and music software this is where he discovered the sound of Dubstep, electronic and dance. He performed his songs to his family and later on in school assembly’s and talent shows. It just so happened to be someone watching him in the school talent show was one of the world most famous producers Cameron Tubb. This kick started his career at the age of just 16 releasing his album 4 months after being signed to Cameron’s label OWSLA. “Feed me” WOMbajak’s new album included his most famous song “pile drive” which got to number 1 in 45 countries this brought Dubstep more into the lime light it is now the fastest growing music genre in the world, some say this is down to WOMbajak ,all we know is that he possibly the world’s most influential music producer the world has ever seen. This is why WOMbajak is going to be the person who models for my magazine.

The images I’m taking are going to be taken in a variety of different places from outside space to inside. My plan is to take pictures in  a variety of different places then pick the best picture for my front cover this will give me a better understanding of what I want and a bigger choice in case I change my mind. The image I want to portray in my picture’s is of aggression, seriousness and dedication this is because the music genre he producers is quite aggressive and energetic and require allot of skill and production.  They will be looking directly into the camera as if he is looking right at you. He will be wearing his normal Dj clothing on which is usually and white top maybe with a pattern or print on. He will also have either converse or vans on with brown chinos. This is normally the sort of clothing WOMbabjak wears.

WOMbajak will either have a DJ mixer or nothing at all as a prop if he has a DJ kit it will show that he is a DJ straight away and likes to make and play music. This will also link to the message I’m trying to portray as he will be playing the his music looking serious and dedicated. I’m going to take my pictures from many angles from high shots looking down on the artist to shots from underneath this will make him looking big and powerful. Using long shots will also be used as it gives a sense of the world around him depending where I take the pictures. Not all of the pictures will be used but taking a variety from different angles will help me get a better finished product. The text will not obscure the image in anyway and will be easy to see. I will do a couple of photo shoots prior to the making of my magazine so I have time to make any necessary changes to the pictures themselves or taking more pictures.
