Film Magazines

I have looked at a range of different film magazines such as Little White Lies, Empire and Total Film that will help me understand the codes and conventions of a film magazine so that I will be able to create my own film magazine that features my film. Each film magazine is very different from one and other and has a USP. For example Little White Lies features only one film whereas film magazines such as Total Film features one mainstream film but then their cover lines talk about other films that are out now or coming soon. Therefore Little White Lie's is very unique and this is there USP as no other film magazine is quite like them. It also uses an animated image of the main character of the film they are featuring so that it appeals to a mass market. For example they may be aiming at kids as they are interested in animation.

Total Film features a range of mainstream films and this is constructed like a typical magazine as it has a skyline, main cover lines, other images and plug's. Therefore it appeals to a larger audience because it features typical conventions of  a film magazine.
