Premiere Magazine Front Cover

Premiere Magazine Front Cover
  • Premiere as a Masthead- red, bold, and white glow, white spotlights.
I chose the name "Premiere" as it suggests being first. Our magazine is first for the readers to know about the latest films. and upcoming films aswell.
I put the masthead in the spotlights as this shows the masthead is important and eye-catching to readers.

I added a white glow to make it look 3D.

  • Tagline- Straight from the red carpet, to you! This shows all the film news is first hand and straight to the audience. The words "to you!" are aimed directly to the reader, making it adressed to them.

  • Target Audience-
The magazine is mainly aimed at young adults to adults, and men usually in jobs; as going to see films can be expensive.

  • Main Image-
The main image of the front cover, is me and Sam. I chose to photoshop a cinema in the background as it fitted with the film and premiere theme. We both chose to sit in a pose that looked like we were watching a film.
Next to the main image, are smaller images of other films we made up these have shocking images to represent the movies. Making the reader want to read more or watch the films.
The strapline "Top reviews with Sam and Charlie" shows that the reviews are recent and they should be trusted by the reader.

  • Colours- 
 Red, Black, White, Gold. I chose to use the colours red and white as they connote film premieres and class. Also the contrast between the black background which appeals to the male audience and the red and white writing, is eye catching and makes the front cover interesting to our target audience.

  • Other-
Price: I decided that the price of £2.50 was an average price, as i researched popular monthly magazines and how much they charge. Th.is was in the price range of between £2.00 and £4.00, so my price was acceptable for what i was offering
Other Images: I chose to use a range of images to connote films like the cinema ticket this was used to give a refrence to there being an exclusive review in the magazine and makes the audience feel drawn in to read more. The star is used to also draw the reader in as inside the star is a stars name, this suggests they are inportant. The directors chair is showing the reader we have exclusive interviews within the magazine as it looks like we have met the director being interviewed. This also adds to the exclusivness of the magazine in genral.
