I had analysed a few features of a few magazines to coverall decide what our magazine should include to look successfully professional. The magazine name must be in bold and it is usually at the top, presented to be positioned across and on top of the main image. Our image must be eye catching and be recognized with a certain film genre. Font size depends

on how important each heading is. Colour schemes are extremely important as they normally match with the main image. The barcode and price are must be displayed.

The boldness of the writing is to draw the reader in and grab their attention.

Main character’s name is dropped/ person is famous this increases the chance of more people watching this film.

Image of the main protagonist looks grim and inquisitive.

The main character looks grim and determined. A good facial close up shot indicates this.

The make- up of the blood on his face and the bruises indicates that a fight will occur.

-A quote of another vital character in the film makes the movie feel more personal.

The background of the shot is a dreary grey but the title of the magazine is in bright bold letters, it stands out much more.

Other stories of interest allow the audience to view similar movies or other movie

interests.

References to other films

The main characters picture blurs into the background yet stays visible.

Little titles like ‘extra’ and ‘sneaky’ facts intrigues the audience.
