Diary Entry #12 - Magazine Design Update

From looking at my audience feedback for my magazine, I've decided to make a cover for a magazine more suited to my film. I looked into Sight & Sound Magazine and have decided tomake a cover for this magazine instead.
I looked at some of the magazine covers they have produced and have come to find that the images used are mostly close up of the actors face with the 'Sight & Sound' name written across the top stretching out so that it reaches both sides of the page.

The magazine also has the barcode with the price on the right side of the front cover and mostly uses red, black and white text along the bottom. There's a mix of different sized text depending on the picture, with smaller stories written with bullet points.

The colours used in each cover are quite basic and limited with the brightest colour being the title of the magazine. The backgrounds are bare with the actors face taking up most of the cover. 

To make my magazine cover seem more realistic and professional I am going to have to include all these features into it.
