Below is the progress made on my Film design for my magazine front cover. In designing it I attempted to follow similar conventions to multi-genre magazines such as Empire and Total film after research gave me little inspiration to do a horror based magazine.
The first image is of my inital design- i.e. step 1
Step 1 of my magazine front cover development involved devising a suitable title for my multi-genre magazine. I didn't do much research into this because I didn't want inspiration, I wanted to think of a suitable title myself and I shortlisted a few names like "Movie Fever" and "Cine Review" but in the end I came up with the name Exclusive which I really liked as did the rest of my media group. What I added to the "Exclusive" was a text style which is shown below. I felt the style add character to the magazine and looked far better than the titles used in Empire and Total Film where they are one colour generally in red black or white.
Below is phase 2 of my Film Magazine front cover
The second phase of my development included adding text to the top of the magazine above the title, this in the multi-genre magazines was used as special feature bit where either a free item would be offered with the purhcase of the magazine or perhaps a special feature inside. I followed these conventions here in letting the audience know that there is a special feature inside where 3 big name stars give their input on the top 40 films of all time. This kind of bonus feature will help enhance sales of the magazine.
