Total Film magazine analysis


The title of this magazine is in the biggest font on the cover, making it obvious that it's the title. The other thing I noticed is that the 'film' in the title has been experimented with and played with to fit in with the main image and the background. Even though the text blends in it's still noticeable and stands out from the rest of the background.
The next biggest font is a sub title of what's featured in the magazine, Inception. Total Film has labelled it at the top 'The mind blowing issue', this is also relevant to the sub title Inception. Inception is a film based in people minds, a team enters an individuals mind with a task to gain information. The sub title Inception lays on top of the main image but not covering the face or any key part of the image.
There is also a circle shape that has an effect as a sticker, this also grabbed my attention, separating itself from the rest of the cover. It's another sub title explaining that there is information of a new film coming out in the magazine.
The barcode is in a typical place, barcodes always seem to be in either bottom corner of the magazine, keeping out the way of the main image, sub titles and any other information on the cover.
