Magazine front cover research


For my A2 Media Studies coursework, i have to design a horror trailer magazine front cover. I have set out to analyse other magazine front covers to research ideas and be able to learn conventions and skills used to creating an established and effective magazine front cover. I have decided to analyse the popular "Empire" film magazine due to it reputation with the mass audience and its target market of the young male audience. I also picked to analyse this particular magazine as I aim to advertise my horror film front cover in a prestigious film magazine such as this.

Empire magazine are one of the lead film magazines in the United Kingdom and the most popular film magazine in Australia which shows the size of Empires audience, which would benefit my front covers publicity.
