Magazine Analysis - Doctor Who

Magazine Analysis - The Martian

Magazine analysis - Star Wars Rogue One

The genre of this magazine is a specialist film magazine specializing in getting exclusives of new upcoming films. This magazine analysis is a bit different as this isnt necessarily an analysis of a review page its more of a 'looking forward to' or a hype building article to get fans excited about the new Star Wars spinoff. Their target audience is mainly going to be young adults ranging from around 14 - 26. This particular page is aimed towards fans of the Star Wars franchise as it is shows a lot of references to the franchise and it is trying to catch the fans eye with the Star Wars logo in the bottom left.


The colour used in this magazine is very dark and edging towards a cool blue tint to all titles and also the primary image. This slightly hints at the darker plot as it is suggested by the mise en scene (Darker colours and rough clothing). The color is used to fit with the genre of the film which is sci fi so the magazine emphasises the fact this film is very techy with the bold perfect edged font and light blue symbolising electricity and many people associate it with technologically advanced things. The titles stay in the bold clean font throughout and much are very much like the iconic Star Wars titles but of course different enough to differentiate between this spin off film and the main franchise 7 (so far). This huge writing isn't actually the title of the film as the film is called Rogue One. This is more of tagline to catch star wars fans or regular readers eyes. It also has a small summary of what the more detailed paragraph is about to intrigue readers and get them to read the more detailed writing. There is also a small text box to describe what is going on in the picture in a small summary.

The primary image is laid out across the entire page and to a lot of readers this attracts them very quickly to the article as it is visually pleasing and in a sense a lot of text does put a lot of people reading off. So the image fills the white gaps and makes the article look aesthetically pleasing and the text look minimal and keeps the layout very basic which for the best and keeps the aesthetic that most readers will like as it sums it up nicely and catches the viewers eyes as the huge tagline draws immediate attention and the characters are dressed very strangely and there's a lot going in this one image so it keeps the reader looking into all of the small details of the one image spread across it. The image is also used to show the readers the main characters which will be central to the plot for the spin off so it also acts like an introduction of all the characters.

Magazine Analysis - MAD MAX

The genre of this specific magazine is a specialist film review magazine. This is a full detailed review of the film and isn't representing the genre of the film very much as it has no designed format which suggests what this film is about apart from the limited images which are not very intriguing. The magazine is very professionally and has no huge appeal to younger audiences as it is very bland and simply there to be a review and has no other purpose. The target audience i would say is for older people ranging from 20 to 40 as it is very professional and has no experimental or fun elements to the layout at all. The images are laid out very basic and it feels like they are there to simply take up some space at least catching fans of Tom Hardy attention or MAD MAX franchise fans. 

However the magazine does give a lot of information and due to its basic text and images it has a lot of room to put extra quotes from reviewers and plenty of space to actually review the film. The colours to this piece do not seem to match up at all to the genre of the film as MAD MAX is this dirty sandy landscape and this magazine is clear white putting a huge juxtaposition against this magazine and this film. The image they have used does some up a lot of the genre of the movie being action and thriller but it does not include one of the most essential parts to the plot which is the use of cars, trucks and motorcycles which most of the film is spent on. 

The titles in full capitals do at least catch the fans attention and the tagline underneath 'All Miller, no filler' references the director of the film and suggest immediately this film is fast paced and action packed and does not have any 'filler' scenes which may bore the audience. Also the four and a half stars immediately shows the audience that this film is a very good and very well made movie just from the stars and it intrigues the audience to read more on how it is this amazing movie. The quote in the middle bottom of the page does give off this car driven storyline which is what the audience will read first because the quotations and the big text is easier to read and the reader is most likely to scan the entire page first before reading the extremely small writing going into detail about the film because people will want to know what they are about to read before they go into huge detail about how this film is a four star. Even though this layout of the magazine is quite bland and doesn't represent the genre of the actual film very well it does do a great job in attracting the audience to different parts of the pages and then giving the reader a good idea of how the review is going to be without going into great detail using quotations and the four and a half stars and also the tagline below the title.

Production Problems - Hair colour change

Mid way through filming Tempore Exitus our actor Katie Wright changed her hair colour so clearly it did confuse the continuity of the film slightly. Me and Alfie originally filmed an extra darkroom scene where it establishes between the gunshot scene and the meeting of herself scene that there was a 6 month time gap but we decided to scrap it as we felt it was not needed. To disguise this change we added filters to film so that the hair colour is very difficult to identify the change in hair colour suddenly and hopefully the audience will not pick up on this continuity error as we have applied filters so her hair will look identical to as it was in the scenes before.

Production Problems - Actor Change (Name Change)

Due to timing arrangements and other commitments sadly both Bridie and Ella could not be our actors for this project. After consideration me and Alfie chose Katie Wright and Charlotte Fensom as our brand new actors for Tempore Exitus. We also considered a new actor for the minor role of Jack which was originally going to be me but after discussions we decided Malachi Dempsey Clark will be taking the role allowing me to get behind the camera and concentrate less on acting.

Katie will be taking the role from Bridie and will play the troubled teen who loses her best friend to many different circumstances.

Charlotte will be replacing Ella who plays the best friend of Katie who will repeatedly die under many circumstances.

Malachi Dempsey Clark will be taking the minor role of Jack who plays the cheating boyfriend of Katie's Character.












In addition to changing the actors we changed the names of the story to Katie and Charlotte to simplify things when filming and we considered these names originally so it fit perfectly with the film and we never found much importance with the names of the film as it is already complicated as story.

Poster Analysis - Star Wars:The Force Awakens

This movie poster is for the seventh movie in the Star Wars franchise (The Force Awakens).
First of all the mise en scene sets the main plot up immediately establishing the heroes and villains but also establishing all of these characters as main characters but has a strong empthasis on the women holding the staff in the center of the poster showing her importance and most things will enter around her. Mise en scene is used firstly in the costume showing bright colours for the heroes in the poster but the main antagonist is clearly shown in the dark black ropes and hood with a haunting non human mask either suggesting he isnt human or does not have any emotion and distances himself from humanity. Also the mise en scene establishes the sub genre of the film as the poster is covered in weapons ranging from futuristic swords (lightsabers) and blasters showing there will be a side of adventure and action. The clear genre of this film is established as Sci fi from the spaceships, futuristic weapons, Robots and the space background clearly showing where its all set as it wont be set on earth. This all suggests sci fi and a lot of sci fi films have based themselves around the conventions in the classic star wars.

The titles are bold and we have a very similar font to this one and it is very iconic for the entire sci fi genre as a lot of sci fi movies took inspiration from the classic star wars movies. So not only does the title suggest the sci fi genre, it also shows the fans of the franchise that this is the next installment and raises anticipation for the film. No actor names are on this poster so it also emphasises the fact that these characters are all important. The poster also emphasises the split between good and bad with the colouring of each sides as the left side is a dark haunting red and the right side is a cool blue for the lightside and suggests the good side. This poster is clearly the main promotional poster for the film.

The plot of the film is highly suggester through all this mise en scene and editing around the characters. The main plot shows there's a split between the light side and the dark side (Good guys vs bad guys) and it is an intergalactic battle. This is also highly suggested in the titles (Star Wars) literally meaning a war in space between the light side and the dark.

Poster Analysis - Total Recall

This film is called Total Recall and it is the reboot of a classic film. Immediately with the man at the front is establishes the main character of the film. The genre is also clear from the first glimpse as the background has clear connotations of the future or another world as the background is covered in floating futuristic buildings and big ben shows us that this is still set in London but suggests a future version of the city and highly technological future compared to dystopian futures such as MAD MAX. So the genre is clearly shown as Sci fi due to the futuristic and technological advances. It also shows a sub genre which is shown by the mise en scene in this poster which is action and possibly thriller. So immediately the audience are given a taste of how the movie will be set up in the future and that it is also a dangerous place.

The tagline also gives us a hint of what is going to happen but not too revealing so the audience is left guessing what this film is fully about. The editing in this poster is also made to give the audience a sense of mystery which is the pixel like squares coming off of the main character. The tagline and the editing fits perfectly questioning if this futuristic London is real or not and it seems like this will be a key plot and recurring theme in the movie. As some fans may know this is actually the theme recurring throughout the theme and the poser seems to suggest that the answer to 'What is real?' will be answered by the main character throughout the film so it raises a lot of questions throughout the audience and will hopefully answer them all within the film

This poster is mainly to introduce the key elements of the movie and is counted very much as a 'character poster' just to introduce the main character of the film showcasing the famous actor to get the audiences attention and show that this movie of hollywood standard having a very well recognised actor. The titles also give a sense of the future and it seems like its stainless steel but also quite scratched so its almost as if its suggesting the future isn't quite polished and as perfect as it first looks. The colours also seem to suggest the futuristic city setting as the colours are a darky cyan blue tone over the entire poster giving it a thriller feel but also a technological atmosphere being all steel like showing the advancement through using shiny metals and sleeker looking colours.

Poster Analysis - Mad Max

  

This is the promotional movie poster for MAD MAX: Fury Road. Immediately this poster gives the basic idea of the film being highly orientated around a desert like location and a strong empthasis on the vehicle side which is subtly hinted within the motorbike behind the two main protagonists. Another thing highly suggesting this is the huge trucks covered in traps and deadly weapons faded into the background. Also another hint to the plot is the costume design. The costumes are very roughly made and clearly made to look like their lifestyle is very violent and they are almost like scavengers. This is also shown within the mise en scene as the rifle the woman is holding looks to be made up of scrap metal and put together by her. The chains across the man's face show this man is dangerous as he has to be chained up and clearly with he gun in his hand he shows huge connotations that he is a highly dangerous criminal or very much an anti hero. The make up on the woman's face also gives strong hints of scavenging to live as she seems covered in dirt and nothing is delicately done much like the man showing further that this world in the film is a dark and dangerous place and is very different to where we live today either placing it in another world or a wasteland future.

This film poster for MAD MAX shows us that the genre is immediately shown as a Thriller/Action as the mise en scene of the costume being rough and ripped up showing they've been through a lot of action and violence. Also of course the guns they are both holding in two directions shows they are fighting off enemies together. The motorbike also giving us a sense of thriller because the car chases will change pace and will provide suspense and action. Also hidden within the poster are subtle hints to it being a part Sci fi genre as it seems to be different from our Earth so it is either placed in another world where their culture is different or a future version of the world as it cannot be in the past because of the cars and weapons.

The titles give also a strong sense of rough, torn and dirty locations as the titles are bright yellow and have stains all across them giving the audience an immediate sense of this world not being a perfect precise world and instead a sandy dirty and violent world. The colours of the poster are primarily orange and yellow clearly blending in with the sandy desert and stained clothing of the clear main characters. Also the tagline highly suggests that this world is imperfect and belongs to the mad and it is set in the future. So this further proves that the film is set in this dystopian worn and dirty world which belongs to criminals and mad men.
