Resources	The resources I will use will include the use of a dark room with a spot light, stairs and also the use of a camera
Location	The location of the shoot will either be in the drama studio or in the main hall, this so that i have darkness and also so i can manipulate the lighting conditions to my liking and also so i can play around with the settings to get the right photograph.
Props	The only props that i will use will be possibly the use of steps from the drama studio as this adds effect and emotion to any style of photo that i will take
Costume	The costume will be casual and not at all formal, it will be on rising stars and also stars of Hip Hop and grime and also rising stars of R&B.

I chose to edit this photograph in a different grain style on photoshop to entice my reader's to look at the photograph and relate to it in a more iconic status in a different way then if it would of been just a plain picture and not edited.

The edit was designed to promote the figures in the picture and to make it stand out from the rest of the text whilst making the image seem more iconic to the eye and different to anything else you'll see.
