Film Magazine/Poster Research.

In my portfolio, we have the main task (the teaser trailer) but we also have 2 ancillary tasks that needed doing. They are:
- A film magazine front cover, featuring the film.
- A poster for the film.
For this I am going to research some magazines and posters so that mine can be the best it can possibly be.
Some major film magazines are:
- Total film.
- Empire.
I have researched these two magazines because they are 2 of the most successful magazines that are around. They also feature heavily with different genres and are renound for having the best detail and the most well written columns and analytical text. Another point is that they include both front covers and film posters in the form of free give aways. Using this will help me to make my magazine cover and poster look as professional as it possibly can.


These are two of the more popular front covers that the two magazines have advertised as Avatar is considered widely as one of the best films that have ever been made.

http://www.totalfilm.com/magazine - This is the webite for Total Film. I used this for my research as it is rich with information about the magazine and it helps to decipher the general codes and conventions of the film magazine.
