Little White Lies Magazine + Reviews

The design of each issue is inspired by its feature film, often represented on the cover by an illustration of its lead actor. The cover film also influences interior aspects, such as editorial icons, chapter headings and custom typefaces. However, the overall template of the magazine remains the same. We were instantly interested in little white lies, as it instantly catches your eye, and this is what we wanted to happen with our audience when viewing the magazine, we wanted something different and little white lies ensured this fact.

Almost always direct eye contact is made by the actor that is featuring on the cover, by doing this the reader feels connected with not only the actor/character but the film.

There is not much attention drawn to the film title, it is small and usually placed at the bottom of the magazine and in some circumstances the title isn't even featured. By doing this the readers attention is more drawn to the connection with the main character and making their own interpretation of the film through the magazines choice of colour scheme, and design

Little white lies keeps within its set structure, even though each magazine cover is uniquely different. The title is always the same, placed in the same constant position, which coincides with each of the different covers. For example every issue has the title and barcode touching the forehead/ top of head, this constant positioning allows the magazine some continuity, allowing readers to recognize

Film Title Little white lies seems to not have a massive focus on film titles, the are almost always very small and not very noticeable., this could be because the magazine does not want to take away from the film itself, wanting the character itself to describe the film, and explain to the audience the events in the film, instead of relying on the film title to express the connotations of the film. It might also be to diffuse the notion that it is a film poster not a magazine cover, as this could be a common mistake because of its lack of text on the front cover and its artistic styles. They may be trying to subtly distinguish between poster and magazine without making it obvious that they are doing this.
