Ancillary product 2 research and summary





From analysing two film magazine covers i have found out the symbol of the cross is commonly used near or on cover-lines, they also like adjusting the colour scheme depending on the film they are featuring to suit the characters on the cover. Both of the magazine covers used sans serif font which signifies masculinity, this suggests that the films are mainly aimed at males. For Empire magazine there was very few cover-lines but on Film magazine there was an even amount on both sides, this suggests that Film magazine aims for a younger target audience that tend to judge a magazine how interesting the content will be. Similar to the film posters Empire uses a close up of the face and focus of the eyes in the centre of the magazine which again reflect the characters emotions and intentions. Both of the magazines had cover-lines/headlines across the bottom of their page it makes it most memorable as it is the last thing the reader sees according to the route of the eye.
