Ancillary Tasks- Magazine Article

This is my final magazine article review. I have used nearly all of the conventions for a review and based the layout and structure almost entirely on an Empire magazine one page spread.

In this third draft, I have added a border and stylised the ‘In Cinemas’ box slightly. I have finished the ‘Verdict’ box with a star rating, and added page number, magazine and date at the bottom. I also altered text sizes and colours to make certain bits stand out and look professional. All I really need to do now is re-write the actual text and I think I have created a good emulation of an Empire Magazine, single spread magazine review

Developed the text, added a fact file and main text. The main text isn’t finished and is just a very rough draft, don’t judge the writing if you can read it.

In this version I have added images and the title. Obviously there is still a lot of work to do, but it’s starting to take shape and actually look like a magazine article. I think the image might take up too much of the page, but I am happy with the images I have decided to use because it doesn’t give much away but still intrigues the audience/reader.

Here is the layout design, based on Empire single spread articles. The only way this differs from the Empire articles is through the three production photos added at the bottom of the main photo, a feature usually confined to double page spreads.
