Film Magazine Progress

In order for my film magazine to turn out the best it could I followed my draft as best as possible. To begin with I created my header and footer bars and imputed the text. I felt that white bold font looks best on a black background and the yellow of "best" makes it stand out on the page which will catch the audience's eyes. I then created my masthead which I had decided was going to be called "REELMAG" I decided to separate the reel and mag using red and black as I felt it suited it and looked good on the page. With the first steps of creating my magazine

I filled in all my sell lines varying the fonts and sizes to ensure that there was variety on the page and that it was still eye catching for the reader. I also added a barcode and price as this is a vital piece of detail that is needed to be on a magazine which ensures that it reflects a real product. I also placed the pug at the top right of the page in bold yellow as again it stand out on the page. I have also added a multi media platform of the website of the magazine.  

 Here I have added my main image to my magazine. I chose this image because it shows the main character Morgan looking depressed with the mask in his hand showing that there is some connections between the pair. I decided to edit the picture and make it black and white to show depression of the character and the darkness that the mask holds. I also decided to put the background of the magazine as grey as it blends in better than if it was harsh and white.












The final part of my magazine was that I had to add the film title to the page and I also added "Reel Exclusive" in red text on a black background as this stood out on the page and it shows that it is exclusive to this magazine only.


















This is my final cover magazine. When I received audience feedback I realised that the colour of my magazine was very grey and therefore I needed to improve this. The audience also pointed out that the image should be more central to the page and should take up more of the page than what it does. They also said that the page was a bit wordy so I should cut down the amount of text on the page so that there is more focus on the image. I also changed the colour of the font of the sell lines to make them stand out more on the page. With these changes made I feel that my overall film magazine looks good as it follows the codes and conventions of real media products.
