Location 3
Location 2
Location 2- The Garden
I will be using my garden as a location for the second image which involves my second model, Matt. I have decided to use my garden because as Jazz is not a mainstream music genre, the artists like to make things personal, and by allowing Matt the have his picture taken in his own garden gives him the personal feel and not the manufactured photo like in magazines such as Kerrang and NME,
I will not need to ask permission to use this location as they are easily available and do not need to cost anything either.

Research Update
Jazz is a very broad genre and i have written down the main sub-genres of Jazz to decide which sub-genre i will base my magazine on, if any.
Ragtime – This is often referred to as the founding base of jazz styles. Originating in the southern U.S. in the late 1800s, this style was developed basically for piano. Ragtime is easy to recognize. The rhythm is vibrant and lively, often being associated with African dance. An early publisher and musician of ragtime compositions was Scott Joplin.
The Blues – Of all the jazz styles, this one truly impacted the development of jazz. In the early 20th century, the blues vocalist emerged on the jazz scene, profoundly expressing the emotions of the African American community. This style of singing was usually performed with piano, guitar, and harmonica. W.C. Handy, Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey…these are legendary musicians of the early 20th century.
Dixieland – This is often called 'traditional jazz' or 'New Orleans jazz' and developed in the early 1920s as one of our most important jazz styles by integrating the blues tradition, ragtime, and the brass band into one musical arrangement. The trumpet, the clarinet, the trombone, and sometimes the saxophone were all complimented by a rhythm section that included piano, drums, string bass, banjo, or tuba. Most of the time Dixieland was played without a vocalist. Louis Armstrong and Jelly Roll Morton are among the most famous musicians of the Dixieland medium.
Big Band – Following the rise and popularity of Dixieland jazz came the beginning of the Big Band. The decade was the 1920s. Jazz styles were constantly being tinkered with and that state of mind we alluded to earlier kept cranking out new sounds…new combinations.
Bebop – By the 1940s, with the popularity of the big band sound in full swing, one of the most fascinating of the jazz styles emerged—Bebop. This jazz style was very different from its predecessor, seeing that the group sized dwindled to 4-6 musicians. The style featured complex melodies and chord progressions and was basically not adaptable to dancing. A vocal style known as "scat" also appeared. Nonsense syllables sung to an improvised melody became the rage.
Free Jazz – In the 1960s jazz music and jazz styles again added a new twist. Free jazz was very much experimental and unique in that pitch and tone were arranged by musicians to develop squeaking and wailing sounds. However, this is one of the jazz styles that has never been widely accepted by public audiences.
Ragtime – This is often referred to as the founding base of jazz styles. Originating in the southern U.S. in the late 1800s, this style was developed basically for piano.
