I shot this photo in a professional studio. I chose this image, out of many, because it is taken at a good angle where eye contact is given to the audience. The hooded coat I feel adds a mysterious and cold tone to the image which reflects the genre of the film. The grey background compliments the black coat and the white text contrasts with both of these colours. The font I chose for the magazine title is bold yet simple and effective. This font title would stand out on the shelf in a store. I chose the title "motion" for a film magazine because it reflects key film terminology, for example, motion picture.
In this stage I added the bar code, the price and the date. This is necessary information for a magazine. I also included the Facebook page and the website for the magazine, as young people are active users of the internet and social networking and young people are my target audience. Above this I gave the reader a sneak peak to what else can be found in my magazine, these three films will have a small feature inside.
Underneath the magazine title I added in a little sentence about the magazine to make it appear more realistic. I then added in my three sell lines. I used buzz words to try and attract my target audience. I put this font in white to match the other writing and to fit in with the black, white and grey colour scheme.
At this stage I added in the main sell line about my film. I used the same font I had used throughout but put "HIDDEN LIES" in the font I had used on my trailer and on my poster. This will stand out to the audience and will make them recognise my film.
Finally I added in a free gift to accompany my magazine. I put this advertisement in muddy red so it stands out compared to the other text on the page, but not too bright so it in keeps with the theme and doesn't distract from the other text on the cover. This advertisement will hopefully entice my audience to buy the magazine.
