Props

For this assignment, i will decide, if any, which props and costumes i will include in my magazine. To stat off, the first prop i will consider are leashes/harnesses. Here are pictures of some pictures with animals on harnesses/leashes. 

In this picture, the cat seems almost wild and very adventurous. Although i acknowledge that its not only the  tight leash, its also the body language of the cat with the ears pointed up and forwards, and the environment in the background which gives off vibes of the woods. However leashes/harnesses dont always create this effect. In this example below, we see something sort of different.

This cat still has ears pointed up and forwards, however the body language seems more welcoming and friendly/curious.  The leash also has a friendly design  and calm colors which also add to the vibe. Overall i think going with no leash or harness will be the best bet, however this brings me to the next prop, collars.

Collars add to the friendly & cute vibe, i will definitely be using one very similar to this as i already own one similar to it and its very adorable with a very cute pink color. I believe the absence of a collar can completely shift the vibe of a picture and of a cat. A cat with a collar indicates domestication and it being owned by someone, and enforces the PET vibe as this is a PET magazine, not just an animal magazine. A cat with no collar would seem possibly not as groomed and taken care of, and may seem a little wild aswell.

Finally, just a small addition to props would be the addition of feeding/ the food brands.i actually took some pictures of feed for my bearded dragon, and a picture of cat food.

Fancy feast is my personal brand of choice, i still may include it in some pictures or use them for my advertisement.

Here are some sample pictures, these are purposely not professional, however these are just ideas for where i will put the food and the type of food. For the magazine i will have to use my own products as advertisement, so i will have to use the foods i have at home.

Thank you for joining me for my brainstorming, see yall next time .
