Magazine Cover #2 TOTAL FILM



My second magazine cover is from Total Film. Total Film is a British film magazine that was originally published in 1997. Total Film is a very similar publication to Empire in many ways; not only are they British publications, they both sell worldwide, focus on Hollywood blockbusters, contain exclusives etc. Like Empire, Total Film offers reviews on new releases in cinema, DVD's, and interviews and news on the latest goings on in the world of Film.

This magazine 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. Their are also other images, placed at the top of the magazine, so as to illustrate what characters/actors will be covered in this issue. These images are surrounded by banners, in order to separate them from the rest of the cover.
