Mise-en-scene and Location Ideas

For my front cover i would like my main image to look as professional as it possibly can. I had various ideas for potential locations for various themed magazines such as: a piano for a music themed magazine, in a science lab for a science themed magazine, a photograph in front of a painted canvas for an art magazine and a photograph in a library for an English themed magazine, however i wanted my magazine to represent everyday college life and appeal to all students. I came to the conclusion that getting a close up picture of my subject in front of a plain bricked college wall would not only look professional but would also help to portray a very relaxed looking photograph that viewers may find easy to engage with.
