Target Audience Profile

My key target audience for my adverts are 16 to 18 year olds i chose this age range because this is the average age for skaters to start properly investing into skateboarding. i chose thrasher as its one of the biggest skateboarding brands and people know the brand from many skateboarding magazines. the psychographic range would be explorers as the seek out sensations and adventure and are risk-takers.

With the psychographic i will strive towards taking photos outdoors and around environments where explorers would usually go, this would include: Skateparks, Sub Urban areas and Parks.

Different Types Of Lighting

Side Lighting : Side lighting is exposing one side of the face to light which creates a glow on the side the light is shining on the model and a shadow on the opposite side. This can give a dramatic shot

Rembrandt Lighting: Rembrandt lighting is very similar to side lighting apart from there is a small triangle of light underneath the eye of the model. This form of lighting was invented by Rembrandt in his paintings but was incorporated into the photography world and is now well known.

Butterfly Lighting: Butterfly lighting is where the light is at a higher angle than the model so that they can get more features of the models face in more detail. this form of lighting is also known as “Paramount lighting” this is because it’s named for classic Hollywood glamour photography.

Vans Advert

i decided to use this photo since it has a decent amount of negative space on the right side of the photo for the tagline. the composition of the shot has rule of threes with the man and his leg in the shot this also helps the composition of the tagline’s.”OFF THE WALL” is larger than “Worlds Number One Skate Shoe” because of the text hierarchy of the tagline’s. i chose the white colour on the darker part of the concrete as this makes the lettering stand out more to the eyes.
