Different Magazine Brands

There are plenty of magazines in the market today, some of which are magazines about tv and films. There are magazines called:
  • Total Film
  • Empire
  • Premiere
Which are the most known tv and film magazines.
The magazine Total Film usually covers Hollywood scale films such as and Marvel film or The Hunger Games (Catching Fire), this may be due to the status of the magazine itself. When thinking about which magazine title to use for our own trailer we had came to the conclusion that Total film would be the wrong choice as they usually portray the more action type films which is a different genre to our own.

The magazine Premiere is not as well known as Total Film although it is popular in its own respect. This magazine usually markets a range of films, yet when researching into their covers it seems as though the pictures used are mainly of the main actor/actress from the film usually not in character. The magazine probably does this as many people will see a film staring an actor that they like so it could boost their sales. When thinking about what magazine to use for our trailer we had thought that this particular magazine didn't cover the genre specific aspects we were looking for.

The magazine Empire is a well known magazine and usually covers films such as X-men and Harry Potter. There is also a small percentage of the released magazines that have been based around horror films such as Silence Of The Lambs. When deciding on the magazine title that me and my partner are going to use we had chosen this one as we feel that our genre of film will suit the title more than the other magazines.
