2. On the front page of this magazine there is a
bigger version of his shield
Also the way they are center we can see the
direct address from captain America and The
Winter Soldier and we have the non direct
address from the black widow on the left.
The head of the characters overlaps the
Master Head (EMPIRE) text Which suggests
that the characters are more important than
the magazine itself.
The way the Title is set on the
Bottom left of the page in white making it
stand out.
There is a dominant image as a front cover
which overlaps the master head the way the
Image is shot and also the original shield of
captain America this shows the iconic look of
the magazine and makes it stand out. The
reason it going to be recognized is because of
the popular face of Steve Rogers,Bucky Barnes
& Black Widow.
There isn't any barcodes on the
front of the page its assumed
that the
barcode is at the back.
The color schemes
black silver blue
the blue represents Steve the Black
shows black widows side and the silver
winter soldier Bucky becouse his hand is silver metal.
Because it’s a special edition the price
tag has been moved to the bottom and
the 25on the top shows that it’s a special edition 1989
-2014.
The way they look is that they
haven't been in battle yet but
the shield behind them looks
like it has seen some action.
By the looks of the front cover its more like
for 15 to 30 age its its aimed mostly at
teenagers and older people EDC1 Social
grades.
THE PURPOSE of this magazines is to
entertain and satisfy audience to make
people see what they want to see in the
published magazine and also to provide
people with mainstream film reviews
THE GENRE is just a film magazine. There is a
information about directors and actors.
3. PRINT
The Title is challenges codes of
conventions because it takes half of
the room on the page. And its over
extended because it represents the
towers.
Dominant image
an extract from the film
Its made for Die Hard fans and the way its
made is so people can be interested on buying it.
They used alliteration in the strapline to
get attention both of tower and terror are
example of alliteration which is also part of
the title. There is EMPIRE in italics so it
stands out.
The orange strip around the double page spread is
some kind of a border maybe a tv frame or some kind of
a frame this is unusual. This could suggest that there is particular focal point a point w
The people who made the magazine want you to look when you open on that page an
The white strip around it makes it look abit like a book or a tv frame this could mean
To keep texts and columns secure.
Typical codes of conventions
folio which helps the audience navigate
trough the magazine this is not made to leak
information
From the magazine itself its simply so people could
view and keep
on track with the pages on the magazine.
There is a strap line gives information about the
contend
Its challenging the code of conventions by making it
look like there is a column but its not actually classed as
a columns. Its also a starter of the article.
This is a promotion
of the person who wrote the
Article
The image on the text has a selective
focus which makes the background blur
and Bruce Willis in focus which makes the
focus selective.
There is also a red filter which
emphasizes the blood and the action.
The red filter could suggest the
danger and the action in this
particular scene the way the shot Is
taken it’s a wide shot and it covers
both pages
4. This is the masthead of the
of the company its normally located on the
top of the page in the center
and its one of the biggest texts so it stands
out from the rest and it’s the most eye catching.
We have Lara Croft overlapping the masthead
which shows that she is more important of the the
masthead itself.
There is a tag line which will
intrigue the leader the tag line
has been used to promote
other things on the front cover
Tag line help to improve
accuracy of what's inside the
magazine or to show
information from inside.
There is a skyline which
promotes infinity war and
we can see some of black
panther. Also grabs
peoples eyes and makes it
look interesting overall
Behind her there is fog that could
be sighs of unknown or mystery
potentially on the left of her is
more darker than the right that
could suggest danger. Could also
suggest that there is action in the
magazine itself could also suggest
that there could be more images
about this certain topic.
There is a image caption an the character looking
straight at you which creates suspense and its
focused on Lara Croft which makes the customer to
look at her first. The way its designed and the way
the picture is been cantered to catch the naked aye
to look at it first before buying it.
The way the orange letters are shown
is so they differ from the other font
itself so it stands out to the naked aye
The choice of orange on the front
realizable and it can be spotted from
far away. That’s an appeal to the
target audience.
There is a little line of circles which
separates the two tittles PAUL
BETTANY and Jodie Whittaker
The plus bit shows and makes you think
you get more than what you paying for.
Also it could mean you get special edition
of what you’ve paid. Having the names of
the people could also mean you get
information about the people on the front
cover.
This could be targeted for audience for people
interested in films and from age 17-27 its
because not everyone is interested in because
it’s a digital magazine it could be aimed for
longer generations.
In every corner of the magazine the fog gets darker which means that it could
also suggest danger because there isn’t light it gets dark it could mean that
there s something behind her which we shouldn’t see from the beginning.
Main sell line TOMB RAIDER
Its organized and centered to the page
And its also indicates the main focus.
Sub head indicates what the
article is about and it gives
more information about it
And focuses Rebirth of Lora
Croft.
It’s a high anticipated movie
and it has world exclusive
with exclamation mark this
could suggest hype.
Sub images of
black panther and
fantastic beasts
which promotes
further movies. Its
also incorporated
with the masthead
which challenges
codes and
conventions and it
stands out from
the audience.
There is a
Subtitle with a
subhead
promoting
another
Stories
The image
of Lara Croft
looks like
she is been
in a battle.
5. It shows the information such as when
its been created or the model of the
magazine
Another codes of
convention there is little bot
of information about what
Jodie Whiltaker talks about
or what she might do. This
bold information usually
makes the person/celebrity
to be recognizable from far
away and also to be able to
catch your eyes from
distance.
This little bit of information
Tells the reader the department this double page
Spread is in which in this case is Drama which in
Some cases might make more people read them.
Colum's and
paragraphs have been
included so it make
the text tidy and need
so it doesn't’t look all
over the place there
could be a possible
The text has a cap drop which shows the reader
where to read from also the font is set to 11
usually and pretty much all the time magazines
use areal font but this could change over time.
The colour scheme could be the same
as the colour of the front cover
however the colour can change trout
out the magazine it doesn’t have to be
the same or similar to the colour on the
front because if everything is the same
it could become very boring for reading
and just having every page the same
colour or similar isn’t ideal coz it
doesn’t look very nice especially if it the
same colour on all the pages.
Colum's are important to be
used in a double page spread
because it creates that smooth
feeling and also it makes it easier
to be found and the information
is stored on a column its not all
over the place.
Every column has its
own sub head which tell
the reader what its
about or it could briefly
explains what could the
following paragraph to
be about.
The image on the middle of the magazine page could
mean or it could be in relative to the text itself which
Shows that we getting a peek in what's happening as well as reading it .
Since the top right of the
magazine
Has the genre which is Drama
we kind of know the
Genre but if we do look at the
Mise en scene the way Jadie
Whiltaker is dressed it could be
possible to work out that it is
related to drama
The colour of the page is
in a black but the
numbers a whitethe purpose – entertain, inform help create identity its
to help create imagery easier to get your head around
the storyline and its easier to understand what is
happening.
the genre of this magazine is film magazine
