Magazine front cover review - Total Film

This is another example of TotalFilm. The masthead of this cover is extremely well placed and attractive, it is clear and easy to read and is obvious that it is the name of the magazine, you could say that it is covering part of the main image but it does not cover too much of the image to be a disturbance and i feel it still works well. The main image is extremely effective, the black and white works very well and captures the eye of the audience, the close up of him looking directly into the camera works well and captures you and makes you want to learn more about the image and why he is looking that way. It is a very effective image, the only issue is the color clashes in the cell lines where the text is grey, i feel it could be unclear for some people to read and could have been changed to look better as it does not give off a good look. The cell lines are well placed and do not clash with the image but could have been given a different color to grey as it is unclear to read but the ones which are white look very clear and are easy to read. 

The layout of the magazine is rather conventional to what i have seen of TotalFilm they tend to have the same layout and create the same iconic layout for their magazine. With cell lines around the main image the masthead just above the image and the name of the film being displayed just below the main face of the image. The text used is extremely effective using words such as 'Exclusive' words such as this draw in the audience.

The price and issue date of the magazine is placed within the M of the masthead and this has been a pattern with film magazines such as Empire do this to. The bar code is well placed as it does not disrupt the look of the image.

Magazine front cover review - Empire

This magazine is called Empire. The Masthead is very attractive in this cover, the fire which is shown on the masthead catches the eye very well and makes you interested in what you are about to see, it helps show what you could expect to see when viewing the film shown on here 'Hellboy 2' Empire is a very well known magazine so where the masthead is slightly covered you still can tell what magazine it is by its stylistic effects to it. 

The main image is extremely attractive, you can tell straight away from the image you are going to witness an action film display just from his menacing look. I extremely like this image due to the color scheme and it is very attractive and you cannot take your eye of the image and draws you in to look for more about what you are viewing. The cell lines are extremely well placed in this image and the color scheme of the text works extremely well with the image there are no clashes of colors meaning it is very easy to read. The layout of the magazine is extremely conventional adapting around the image and a clear view of what you are meant to be looking at with the main image, the text on the image is clear and shows of the film well and you know what you are viewing. The price of the magazine is between the between the masthead and is place well between the letter 'M' in between this letter you have the date, the price and the issue number of the magazine. They are all well placed and it is reasonably priced i think due to the effectiveness of the image. The use of words such as 'sneak preview' draw the audience in as they are believed to be getting exclusive information in and this is extremely effective when catching the eye of your audience. Overall i think this is a really good example of a great film magazine front cover. 

Magazine front cover review - Total film

This is a TotalFilm front cover. The masthead of this image is extremely big and is centralized on the page, seeming it is a well known magazine the masthead is able to be covered as the label is already well known and being covered you would still know the makers of it just from the style of text and small area of text shown. This is a very good representation of a masthead other than the coverage, you know it is a film magazine.
The main image of the magazine is centralized and catches the audiences eye extremely well, the colour co-ordination with the background makes the image stand out, it is a very attractive image, the pose of the actor of him in character gives a good setting of what the film going to be set time period wise and makes it seem very serious. The medium shot gives a good view of his mise-en-scene giving a good expectation of what to see within the film shown. The image is extremely effective as it is a professional well known actor and you know it is an actor from the film 'Sherlock Holmes'.
The layout of the magazine is very conventional with a main image and cell lines surrounding the image giving a eye on the image and capturing the eye of the viewer with its bright text. The bar code is aside of the image and is out the way but still in clear view. It is very cleverly placed and does not effect the attractiveness of the image like it could if it was placed closer to the actors face in the main image. The price of the magazine is very small on this and is quite expensive, it could be changed in size to make more visible but is still in the right area just text size needs to be changed to made more clear.
Sell lines are placed very well and are clear on the page and do not overlap with the main image creating an attractive page to look at. They use catching words to a buyer such as 'Extra' and these words will draw in a viewer as you are more likely to be interested in something if it is exclusive. The pull quote which has been used is very catching and interesting 'All the elements are coming together!' This shows that it is going to be an Adventure film and the magazine is showing this with that quote, it is a very smart quote to use and the image helps represent the investigator of the matter making it more clear.

Additional shots for our Film Trailer after Storyboard

When we looked through our animatic we realized we needed a few more scary shots to make the horror of the trailer stand out more. I found this trailer and showed it to my group as we are looking for more possession within our trailer to link up to the film plot and this film had great shots showing distress of people and also some very disturbing shots

This helped us gain a better attraction to the horror audience.
We took shots of people looking frantic and used the shot where the toy rolls over on its own which is very eerie and creates a awkward feeling, we are using the scene where the child looks isolated on its own and said 'Mommy' and the shot of the women frantically digging at the dirt but linking it to ours we are using it as her scratching through the dirt and ashes which smashed on the ground to realize the demon inside of her.
