Film Magazine analysis
By
looking at the two different types of music magazine, one more mainstream and
the other more specialised I was able to see the codes and conventions of a
film magazine, therefore enabling me to decide if I am going to stick to the
codes and conventions of a magazine or subvert the conventions and choose to
structure the cover in my own way. Due
to the fact I am making a specialised magazine I am likely to adhere to the
second magazine more .From my template it is clear that I am going to make my
magazine cover quite conventional. I have chosen to structure it similarly to
the first magazine ( Total Film ) as there are certain aspects of the mainstream
magazine I
find appealing , such
as the layout as I believe the second magazine looks somewhat more clustered
than the first as on
the front cover of the first magazine there is more space around the main image
and the cover lines are smaller thus making the main cover line more important.
