Magazine Conventions

I will be looking at 5 different magazine covers to understand all the conventions that are consistently found in magazine poster. I hope to find similar conventions with all the magazine regardless wether it is a mainstream magazine featuring blockbuster Hollywood movies or a Specialised magazine featuring British films.

I will be looking a number of different magazines:

• Empire 
• Total Film 
• Sight & Sound
• American Cinematographer 
• Film Maker
