Film magazine cover analysis
Premiere - Spider-man 3
Following the colour-scheme, the additional headlines down the left side alternate between black and blue text )to separate the actors names and make each one stand out and look separate from the one before. It also stops it from blending into one long list that wouldn't interest nor stand out to the reader. However the 'Oscar bonus' title at the top (telling the reader what the list of actors below is referring to) is larger to separate it from the list it's advertising.
The headline for the cover picture is 'The secrets of spider-man 3', the part of the headline in the largest text is the movie title 'spider-man 3' as this is what readers are meant to be drawn to.
The alignment of the headlines is centred around the man in the cover picture, some of the text overlaps parts of the image of him, for instance the text '& many more' and the title of the magazine which runs along his hairline but he is clearly the main focus of the cover - as he is the main character.
The colour scheme is black, grey, white and blue - they can all be found in the cover picture (hair and suit are dark, grey detail on the suit, the background is off-white and his eyes are blue) this shows consistency and makes the cover look professional.
The headline 'when stars collide' is written in bold, black text, the name dropping section below is in blue and then below that is further black text - copying the alternating pattern on the opposite side of the page and maintaining the professional look.
The bottom of the magazine (below the spider-man 3 headline' is largely left blank showing that the iconic spider pattern on the suit however the spider pattern is also framed by the barcode on the right and the tagline - reinforcing the idea this is a professional magazine and looks good to the reader.
