The reason that I picked this picture to compare to the one that I took of Luke is because I think it just has a general resemblance of it.
The way that they are stood and the posture of the shot are just a simple standing still shot, not doing anything special just a simple chilled shot, which is what you see all of the time with the rock style of images.
Luke and Dave Grohl are not doing anything with their body just stood still. The reason for this is you don't really see males in rock magazines stood doing poses so I just went for a medium close up on him stood still.
I have picked a medium close up just so you are able to see the face and chest and that about it. There is no need to have anything else in the shot. Also I have picked a medium close so you can see the emotion of the models face. The reason I picked a close from a eye level front angle is so you can see the model clearly.
I have used natural lighting for my image. I think that the non set up area for a photo looks better than someone behind a blank space behind him. I think when you are outside it better to see everything that is behind the model than see nothing. I took the picture during the day with no flash so that the model would be lit up clearly but no have the glare of the light shining on him. This is the same for the other picture I am comparing my image to.
My model has got a classical rock look to him. He is just wearing a t-shirt with some small on in the chest area. This makes the effect of a rocker that has just got out of bed and just put any clothes on that he could find and he doesn't feel the need to dress up on smart clothing. This is the same for the image of Dave, just a plain white t-shirt with nothing on it.
Luke has a angry look to him. Most rock magazines you don't see people on the front with big smiles on there faces, so I wanted to keep up with that with him having an angry expression. The picture of the other person has an almost identical facial expression looking straight at the camera and concentrating on something.
The hair that Luke has suits the style of a rock magazine, most rockers have longer hair than most people and it is stereotyped that it is a bit messy and untidy, Luke's hair was done perfectly because it look like a rockers hair. It is the same as the other picture, there has being no styling to it or anything like that, just being taken as he was.
The background is different but the same at the same time. I have some wall behind Luke so he doesn't look like he is standing in the middle of nowhere. Dave has a wall and it looks like a window behind him, the only difference is that he looks like he is a quite a distance away from the wall, where as Luke is stood right in front of it.
