Magazine Analysis FILM FARE

This is an edition of a love film magazine done by Film Fare. It looks similar to the Empire due to the font and structure but has its own twist. The masthead is effective because it is bold and simple and it stands out from the rest of the magazine. The colour of it is also effective because it fits well with costume of the female on the main image of the cover. The main coverline is effective because of the colour which is the same as the masthead and the dress but the font used is also effective. The font is fancy and it sticks out from the cover. There is also the “All you need is” which links with the love and this again is simple black font. You can see the barcode and this is placed on the side of it. This was a good place to put it as it is not in the way and it fills up the space in that area. There are other coverlines which are placed on the other side of the magazine and these are also effective because of the layout, the size and the font which they have been written in.

The date and the issue is situated in an obvious and convenient place and this is good because if not then the audience and the consumers would struggle to find out which one they want and whether the one that they are buying is the latest version.

There is also the website and this is beneath the date and this is a good place to put it because then it is bold and right there so consumers will be able to go online.

We see that there are hints of what is inside of the magazine at the top and this is good because it allows us to know what we are in for and is a simple over view of the content. This again is bold and black and this fits perfectly with the theme of colour of the cover.

The main image is effective as it shows the passion and love of the two people and is a direct point of view where they are looking at the camera. The layout of this is effective because it looks clean and it doesn’t look like there is too much going on in the magazine cover
