Ancillary Post 1 magazine review

This is my first draft of my movie review, it was created using QuarkXpress on an apple mac. Main problems I faced were getting all images and text perpendicular and looking professional, however after a few hours I got things looking good. I will get some feedback shortly to correct some mistakes and anything that needs tweaking.

First draft feedback.


People thought the initial review was good, however some slight changes could be made.

  • The top title could use some movement as it overlaps the border too much.
  • There is no title to state what film is being reviewed.
  • And the first letter of the text is normally bold and outstanding.


Final draft.

This is the final draft of my magazine review and as you can see i've corrected the little errors and added some new elements, which now bulk up my magazine review. I went for a quirky look and is much more informal than most magazines. Taking inspiration from Kerrang! FHM and EMPIRE magazine I have developed and created my own review of my groups film, Passion of a bleeding rose. It contains a star rating (In mine, a 'blag' rating), the actual review, snippets of un-required information ( In mine, Troll facts) and several images with captions alongside many other conventional properties of a magazine.
