This is the plan I created for my Magazine, this is based upon the magazine research I conducted earlier on

The masthead and Film’s name are the two largest text on the page just like on the real products I analysed.

There is space for:• a sell-line• website address• barcode• main image• cover lines

The background I created on Photoshop was distorted clouds effect using the colours grey and black.

The first draft of my magazine, was in line with my plan, everything was in line with my plan , everything was more or less in the same place.

I added aunique sellingpoint to attractmore buyers.

However, it didn’tstand out verymuch, so wasn’tdoing its job ofattracting attentiontowards themagazine.

The background was fitting with the genre, but made the text hard to read and the image not easy to see. Making the magazine quite unsuccessful in promoting the film.

After finding that the busy background was taking the attention away from the information on the magazine such as: the film title being featured, the content of the cover lines.

I put the USP in a yellow badge making it stand out.

I still felt as though the magazine didn’t quite look like the film ones I analysed more like a glamour magazine it looked quite bare and almost incomplete

I changed the background again as I felt happy with the rest of the magazine.

I had a black background with a spot light effect, which would shine on KYRA JAMES drawing more attention to her.

The white text would be much easier to read on this black background also.

One of the features in the magazine related to ELIMINATION was ‘Making of the movie’ Which would include behind the scenes gossip and outtakes from the film.This was a common thing to find in film magazines I had analysed.

I added some pictures to make it look more interesting.

Enlarged versions can be seen on the following slides.
