REVIEW: Drafting layout

We had to make our layout as convincing as possible to be a real magazine article. This meant using an appropriate layout, and colour scheme to suit our film and also to look like a proper magazine review.



This was our first magazine review we completed. We wanted to use a colour that would be suitable for boys and girls so both genders could relte to our film. Howver we discovered this looked very boring and dull, and decided we should use a red as this symbolises the feelings and emotions in the film and is also a neutral colour for boys and girls.

The font we used was broadway. We used this for the title only as we wanted to try grab the readers attention. Howver we decided to use the same font as the text as this looked more professional.

The image was a suitable image, however, the mis-en-scene draw the attention away from the character Vickey's face and the character wasnt centered properly in the frame meaning the spacing wasnt used afficiently. We learnt to used a sceen shot of Vickey from the film which was centered correctly and had nothing in the back ground to draw the attention from her face. This shows the audience who the film is about.

We had a pull quote placed at the end of the review. We decided for our next draft to move this to the middle of our review as we thought this would be important for the audience to read.
