“The secrets of Spider-man 3” This is very relevant for the film, as it is speaking about spider-man and when reading the heading, it looks very interesting.

The main character is in the middle of the page, in costume looking very serious. This works really well as some of the spider-man 3 posters feature him in black, instead of red.

“Tobey Maguire go deeper”This is good as the actor is speaking about the movie and giving the audience and fans of the movie an insight.

The colour scheme works really well as the blue stands out, but it doesn’t look too bright and in your face.

The colour scheme works amazingly with the theme of the film. Although the character is blue and the background is similar colour, it works well as it is very eye-catching and fans of the movie will find this more interesting then a plain white background.

The title of the film is very clear and stands out well. This is good as people who are not familiar with the movie is able to recognise the title.

The head of the character is overlapping the magazine title. This is really good as it gives a significant feel and importance.

The person on the magazine is in character, which would work better than the actor being on the cover, as people are able to identify the movie from this character.

“POTTER 7” Although this is not the name of the title, the film is so popular and well known that it can get away with not writing the film title. This would only work is the movie is well known. The 7 represents that this appearance in the magazine is about the seventh movie.

Daniel Radcliff is in character here in the middle holding his wand. Voldemort, Hermione and Ron is under the main character, but slightly smaller. This shows that Daniel (who plays Harry) is the important character in the storyline.

The colour scheme is very exciting and works very well with the background colour. This could represent that the movie is an exciting one.

All of the characters facial expressions are very serious and both Hermione and Harrys faces are either dirty or have a little bit of blood on it. This shows that there is conflict in the movie.

What to put in a film magazine cover.

DO• Make the colour scheme fit with the

colour scheme of the film poster.• Have a quote from the movie, or a

short piece of writing related to the movie.• Include the name of the movie.• Have the main character on the

front of the magazine in the middle.

DON’T• Use short hand or words that

don’t make sense.• Make the film title too small,

allow it to stand out.• Allow the characters to smile if

the movie is a horror or thriller, be in character.
