My first magazine cover is from Empire magazine. Empire is a British magazine, and is currently the biggest selling film magazine in Britain. The magazine is not only published in Britain, but has a vast audience in America, Australia, Russia, Portugal, and Turkey. Their magazine attracts young adults and teenagers, roughly between the ages of 15 and 24. Empire is well known for organising the annual 'Empire Year Awards'. This is an awards show that is decided completely by the readers of Empire magazine. Empire is a leading publication of it's type, and contains interviews and movies of many movies, most notably Hollywood Blockbuster movies, as this is the main attraction to their audience.
This magazine cover contains many conventions of a magazine front cover. The Masthead is the biggest font on the cover, and is placed at the top of the magazine. The Dominant Central Image takes up most of the cover, and the main cover line is based on this image, and also contains a bigger sized font than the rest of the cover lines. Various other conventions are used on this magazine front cover, most notably, banners, a barcode, and a date and price.
