“DEFUZE Magazine is a trendy, fresh and totally independent photobook for young fashionistas, photographers, musicians and artists. It’s a breath of fresh air on the newsstands filled with over-commercialized magazines.”

This was the online issue that I looked at for Defuze magazine. I feel that the cover of this issue is good and having “cherry bomb” on the cover makes it apparent that the main feature will be about rebellious youth culture.

I found that the main feature was a little disappointing because I thought that the styling wasn’t great, and the model looked slightly awkward in some of the shots. Also I felt that some of the images were taken at an angle that wasn’t very complimenting, although that could have been the look they were going for.

 

On the other hand I thought this editorial was a lot stronger because the styling was more intricate and the use of light and shade was much, much better.
