Mise-In-Scene

Mise-In-Scene

FourFourTwo Magazine

The main image on the front cover is Messi in motion. 

Messi is captured in deep concentration, 

perfect balance and action. 

He comes across as determined and focused

in the midst of a scene during a match. He’s apparently passing the ball on to someone else, or, we don’t really know, kicking the ball in an attempt to score. 

He’s a man on a mission, nothing is left to coincidence,

and every muscle and fiber in his body and facial expression emits engagement and perseverance. In essence, the image could be something different, the obvious situation of course would be celebrating a goal or scoring a goal and all the sense of celebration that this would stir. But it’s not. Football is 90+ minutes of hard work, not glamorous, fighting and will to win. This is what the image is about.
