This magazine is called company. It is a fashion magazine which includes a lot of information on latest trends and gossip. From the front cover, I think inside there will be articles about fashion, celebrities, gossip and pages that give advice example what to wear and what not to wear this season. I think the target audience is young teens and women in their early – mid twenties. I think it is aimed at people who like reading gossip and looking at what celebrities wear and latest trends. I think the age group there aiming to attract is aged 15 – 28. On the front cover, there is a big shot of n dubz – x factor 2011 judge Tulisa Controstavlos. I think she is on the cover, because she is stylish, a nice role model, and she is in the spotlight a lot lately. She is the only person on the cover, and in a big shot. There is text around her of what the magazine includes. There is only a little bit of text about her that says ‘tulisa: im going to shake up the x factor’. There is hardly any text about her, but she is the main shot and thing on the front cover.

Contents page

Research – analysing contents pages

Company magazine does use images in their magazine. The images have been placed out on spreads throughout the magazine. Images give a better point of view on the magazine, for example when there is a picture of a certain celebrity in the magazine, it attracts an audience instantly. The text is bold and quite big. The titles are bigger than the actual contents were it tells us the page and what’s on the pages. No, the style of the contents page does not support the cover. The contents page is very different to the cover; it is very simple but nice. Also, on the contents page, there is a large image of a normal model, and on the front cover there is a picture of a celebrity. The information on the contents page is small, but the titles are big. The text is simple. The different sections are Generation Company, high street edit, features, celeb, company rocks, fashion and beauty, back to ours and offers. It tells us that there are a lot of different topics in the magazine, not just fashion. The promotional features in the contents page are fashion.Yes the magazine logo is featured on this page. It is close to the centre and is the largest piece of text on the page. When we open up the magazine, the title is very visible. They have the company website on both sides of the contents page.

FINAL POSTER

The conventions that I have used in my poster , are : image , the title of the movie, the credits and the age . this is to attract a wider audience . in my poster , the genre I have tried to create is romance . the title is ‘love hurts ‘so the audience will expect it to be a romance , but it’s really a comedy romance . the things I will use in my trailer would be the main points of the film , the funny and romantic parts . the main characters are in the poster . my film is a romantic comedy . I chose paramount pictures to produce my film because of all the romantic comedys they have produced .

draft of my film poster

 analysis of a film poster

This poster is for the film lottery ticket . the poster has an image of  young characters on it . In the background there is an image of a shop where the lottery ticket was bought. The main conventions of a movie poster are an eyecatching image and a catchy slogan and interesting title. The title is the main point of the film .The colour of the text is white and the writing is set out in a specific way the l and y is a larger font than the rest of the letters . It is placed in the middle of the poster .underneath the title theire is a slogan saying winning is just the beginning , surviving is another story . it gives of the main points of the story,as well as the title . it tells us that a boy(the one wearing a t shirt saying I did not win the lottery)has won the lottery and it is hard for him to actually keep the money . The main actors are bow wow , ice cube , Brandon t . Jackson and terry crews. There is no critical reviews on the poster . the movie was not nominated for any awards .  The production blurb is in the tiny print at the bottom of the poster . it says who made the film and the production company . The characters look like they have been placed on the background and they were not actually standing there . The people are representing a street style life. Their clothes give off this impression. The posters colours are black and yellow , grey and white . the characters are wearing similar colours to the background and red . the title is very plain , but this makes it better , because it isn’t to flashy or boring . the l and the y in lottery are slightly bigger than the other letters . There is credits at the bottom . We cannot see them that well , because they are kind of blending in with the images on the poster . they should be in a brighter font , so we can see them . This film is a comedy. This film is rated pg  13 , because of drug references , sexual content  ,some violence and brief underage drinking .it is made it the usa . it was filmed in Atlanta , Georgia , usa . On the opening weekend, it made 10, 65 , 297 .it grossed 24 , 708 , 699 . The production company is Alcon entertainment, burg/koules productions and cube vision. The running time is 99 minutes . The director is Erik white. I think the posters were placed on billboards and in cinemas. The movie has a soundtrack . The actors in the movie are all related to music, mostly all of them are music artists , which have a song featured in the movie and in the soundtrack .

Brainstorm

The genre of my film is comedy and romance. A main stream company would be distributing my film. This company would be advertising my film worldwide. The target audience for my film will is teenagers. The key characters in my film will be teenage boys and girls. The first scene of my film would be set in college, were they are walking in to it, like an American movie. The characters will be popular students , about to go into college , but they are ‘a struggle’ .
