My Film magazine front cover "By Midnight"

For the films magazine front cover i followed typical forms and conventions looking at other magazines such as total film and empire. I noticed how they include a bold title which is used in every issue of the magazine so decided i would create one with a catchy name.

The main film which is on the front cover includes a picture which stands out and entices the audience, which i have tried to achieve and also includes the name of the film in bold too. I used the colours which i had used for the poster and trailer which allows the audience to link all three products together this is a use of synergy linking all three products together to advertise the movie.

Buzz words such as "exclusive" and "reveals" are used to entice the audience making them want to read on and buy the magazine. Other stars where also mentioned on the front cover making the audience wider showing how the whole magazine isn't focused on By Midnight film but other films and stars are included.

The price, date of issue and issue number is included in small print showing how this isn't as important but obviously stills needs to be included.
The colour scheme red, yellow and black also makes the magazine edgy and stands out from other magazines drawing people's eye onto the front cover.
