Magazine Review Analysis
Raymond.J.Sloan
The use of a consistent colour
scheme is also employed. This
allows the audience to pick out
sections and know what their
purpose is. For example they
know that the red writing is
titles of films.

Large font is sued to
immediately attract
attention of the
audience and directs
them to the start of
the article. This is a
feature I will use to
successfully make my
article easier to read.

A rating system
immediately allows
the audience to
gain a direct review
without the hassle
of reading through
the details which
makes reading the
reviews easier. This
is something I will
definitely emulate
in my magazine
review.

Use of comedy/sarcasm allows
the reviewer to connect with
the audience while delivering a
message. This makes the review
more unique and enticing to the
audience.

Full page image not only grabs
attention but also allows the
audience to instantly recognise
the review of which film or film
series without reading the
title. This allows finding the
review they want easier to
find.
Layout
• In terms of layout, 3 equal columns of text contain the
detailed information on the left page with titles above
with a second page dedicated to one image from the
movie. This is called a double page spread and is
effective at holding 3 details in 3 key areas. The title, a
summary of the review, the details, the exact pieces
that makes the movie what it is and the image, which
gives the audience further insight into the movie snd is
the main attraction piece. I will try to fo;;ow a similar
layout to this as I believe it is not on;y simple and easy
to understand but allows the correct amount of details
to be conveyed.
