Film Magazine Industry
This document summarizes information about four British film magazines: Empire, Sight and Sound, Total Film, and Little White Lies. Empire is a monthly magazine published since 1989 with over 194,000 circulation. Sight and Sound is a monthly magazine published by the British Film Institute since 1932 that includes reviews and full cast/crew lists. Total Film is published every four weeks since 1997 with a print and digital edition and over 60,000 circulation. Little White Lies is an independent bi-monthly magazine that themes each issue around the front cover film.
The shining
The document discusses techniques used in the films The Shining, Breathless, and Kill Bill. In The Shining, jump cuts are used to show the main character's confusion over his identity. Close-ups reveal his emotions as he questions his sanity. In Breathless, jump cuts rebel against traditional cinema rules to portray characters on the run from the law. This helped launch the new French wave of cinema. In Kill Bill, superimposition provides backstory for the characters' intentions. Close-ups of fighting sequences allow the audience to see emotions and how characters will escape holds. Mood changes when the main character's daughter appears, calming the violence.
3. proposal(1)
The document proposes a magazine called "Grunge Mag" that will promote the grunge rock genre. It will include sections on upcoming grunge bands, pioneers of the genre like Nirvana and Pearl Jam, and local bands to help promote them. The target audience is males and females ages 16-19 who have an interest in music. The magazine will have a similar content and style to Kerrang and Q magazines. It will take approximately 14 days to create and have a budget of 30 pounds. Resources needed include a computer, Photoshop, camera, and internet access. Copyright will not be an issue as the magazine concept is original.
Case studies
The document provides an analysis of the layout, design, and content of a magazine article about the film Guardians of the Galaxy. Key aspects discussed include the use of white space, columns, grids, and headings to structure the text and images. The integration of text and images is analyzed, along with how content is represented and could be influenced by bias. Consideration is also given to how the content may appeal to international audiences and represent attitudes of Western society.
Factual product
The bonus feature provides behind-the-scenes footage to educate audiences about how Guardians of the Galaxy was made. It interviews actors and the director to give insight into their roles and perspectives. Examples show how visual effects were used to create characters like Rocket and Groot. This informs audiences about the filmmaking process and could increase interest in the Marvel franchise and related merchandise. The content appeals to a wide audience through its use of both informal and formal language.
Choices[1] 2
The document proposes creating a music magazine with a vinyl cover and matching t-shirt. The initial ideas were discounted in favor of the final idea of a magazine cover, double page spread, and vinyl cover focused on 1980s music. Production is planned around the creator's strengths in graphic design. Minor changes were made to the initial plans to make the design more professional and add more color options. The products fulfill the brief of targeting a 16-19 year old audience and containing content of interest around music.
Advertising product

It discusses how the trailer entertains audiences through its structure, honesty about the film's fun nature, and use of classic rock music. It also educates viewers about the Marvel franchise and the Guardians. The trailer persuades audiences through humor, catchphrases from characters, and music from the 70s/80s. It promotes the film by reaching wide audiences online and introducing a new Marvel franchise. The target audience is 12-25 year olds, mainly male, and appeals to achievers and those seeking belonging through its community and family themes.

How to overcome depression and anxiety
The document provides tips for overcoming depression and anxiety, including building relationships through sharing feelings with trusted friends and family, exercising regularly, keeping a positive outlook, pampering yourself, eating a nutritious diet with superfoods, getting enough sleep, giving up bad habits, and encouraging yourself through your progress.
Guardians of the galaxy
The document provides an in-depth analysis of visual and audio techniques used in the film Guardians of the Galaxy. It discusses how the main character Peter Quill/Star Lord serves as an avatar for the audience. It also analyzes how character interactions, costumes, special effects, camera angles, lighting, music and other elements are used to immerse viewers, convey meaning, and help the audience relate to and understand the characters and their circumstances. Specifically, it notes how colors, character backgrounds, locations and other details help audiences connect emotionally with the protagonists and their goals.
Video evaluation
The document provides feedback on a student film project. It discusses whether the film met the criteria of the brief, which asked for a 1-5 minute film without dialogue aimed at a 16-19 year old audience and filmed on campus. The feedback notes that most criteria were met but more footage could have been filmed on campus. It also discusses whether the finished film matched the original idea, which was for a horror trailer, and notes some minor differences in shots. Areas for improving planning, strong shots, and weaknesses like unsteady camerawork are identified. With more time, the opening shots and additional scenes would be changed or reshoot.
The good the band and the ugly
The document analyzes a scene from the film "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly". It discusses how the close-up shots of each character looking at one another establishes tension and suggests they are nervous. Hand close-ups further reveal one character is fidgeting and another's hand is shaking, indicating their states of mind. The positioning of the characters is established through 180-degree shots. A rock placed between them takes on symbolic significance. Facial expressions and backgrounds provide clues to one character's fate. Music and wide shots set the scene. Through these techniques, the director builds suspense around the outcome of the standoff.
Editing 2
Early film editing techniques included editing in-camera by Georges Méliès, continuity editing in films like The Great Train Robbery, and workbench cutting. Editing in-camera involved starting and stopping the camera to capture only desired shots. Continuity editing created coherent transitions between shots through techniques like establishing wide shots followed by close-ups. Workbench cutting physically spliced film strips together to assemble shots. These early techniques evolved as film technology advanced, allowing more sophisticated editing approaches.
Stylistic features
This document discusses the style of the film Deconstructing Additions. It has a retro, 1970s style influenced by sci-fi films of that era like Star Wars, featuring 1970s music, clothes, and a "lived in" futuristic universe where advanced technology looks old. The style also takes inspiration from magazine design, using a modular grid layout with uniform organization and full-page images, allowing for a simple visual structure. References are made to examples from the film and magazines throughout.
Guardians added
The Guardians of the Galaxy film has a retro feel due to the costumes, music, and technology depicted. Chris Pratt wears a 1970s leather jacket, and the film features songs by David Bowie, Michael Jackson, and Suede. The plot and setting of the film are similar to Star Wars, with space battles and the use of retro-style technology. Being comparable to Star Wars would appeal to its large, loyal fan base and help the film attract more viewers, increasing profits and popularity.
Comparison
The document discusses and compares two products related to the film Guardians of the Galaxy: the film itself and a magazine about the film. Both are intended to entertain audiences, but they do so in different ways - the film uses visuals and plot while the magazine informs through articles. Their shared purposes are to promote the film and franchise, engage audiences, and provide entertainment. However, the film is better able to promote itself through its moving images and visual storytelling.
Animation planning document
This document outlines an animation project involving Lego Star Wars characters dancing to music from Mos Eisley Cantina. It includes:
1. A storyboard with 6 scenes of characters like Jabba the Hutt, Leia, and R2-D2 dancing and interacting.
2. Details on the stop motion animation process, targeting children/teenagers with a sci-fi genre advertisement for Film 4.
3. Considerations around copyright, characters, and ensuring the animation is not offensive or inappropriate for its audience.
Scotts initial plans
The document outlines Scott Wilson's initial plans for a magazine project. It discusses the product options and Scott's decision to create a music magazine focused on the grunge genre, targeting an audience of 16-19 year olds. It includes a mind map of initial ideas and a mood board analysis. The mood board will influence the final product's look and feel through replicated magazine designs, content, and effects/color corrections applied to images.
