Magazine Draft 1


This is the first draft for my magazine front cover - the only things missing from it at the moment are the image of Callum and information such as a barcode and the date of the magazine issue. However, some things that I have decided to work on, modify or add are:

  • A logo for the 2013 London Film Festival - as the initials LFF have a certain ring to them, it is likely that I will base the logo around that motif. 
  • Develop the title 'UKFilm' into something more iconic that looks like a logo in its own right - one thing I am thinking of is embedding a union jack within the dot of the I - any larger British motif might detract from the understatement and classiness of the poster, but it is definitely necessary to add something to the title to make it stand out more.
  • Puffs - I will add a small puff anchoring the magazine such as Sight and Sound's 'every new film reviewed', but I will also add puff images from other imaginary films or perhaps of film festivals/premieres etc.
  • One thing I need to make sure of is that the colour of the title 'Meantime' is exactly the same as the colour that is also in the poster and trailer itself.
Depending on how the actual images I have taken look in the framework of this poster, other aspects of it may also need to be modified, mainly to do with the colours of the different graphics. I may also take more images denoting the 'mean' and tough quality the character develops - something I have already done is have Callum loosen his tie in the images in order to suggest the idea that this is a character who has gone off the rails.
