Magazine Review:
Evaluation

My task was to make a magazine review for the film that I have produced. For me this included writing the review, deciding on extra features for the page, taking promotional pictures, capturing screen shots and producing a front cover (as explained earlier)
After completion I produced a questionnaire to help evaluate my review. Here are my results.

Q: What did you like most about the review?
I liked the comparison with
the last film
The explanation about silent films because I
wouldn’t normally want to watch one but I think
I’d watch this one.
The screenshots – they’ve made me
want to know more about the film
I like the things about the music because
you don’t always get that from film magazines
I liked the way it was laid out – I didn’t feel over faced by all the writing.

Q: Is there anything else you would have done?
I think there could
have been more media
language used.
I think that there could have been more said
about the film rather than the people involved
I would have made the text smaller, I think it’s a
bit too big
I’m still unsure about the idea of a silent film.
My response:
Although these are quite critical comments, I was happy that these were the only ones, and personally I don’t think they are particularly bad.

Front cover.A tagline for the magazine
A name for the magazine – I checked that this wasn’t already in use
A headline that is similar to the one used inside the magazine for my review
Other headlines to make it look more realistic
Barcode
Date & Price - I have had many comments about this but the date shows 2010 which would be 20 years since Cry Baby was released

Page 1Pun in the title
A box with the basic information of the film and the rating from the magazine – I did the stars blue as that is the colour of the title
Sub heading explaining which film is being featured
Bold first paragraph. Also through out the review, I made sure film names were in italic
Posed picture of the two actors, although there is a nod to the content of the film, it doesn’t give anything away
Film name and page number

Overall I think that my magazine review was a success, as can be seen from my
questionnaire, nobody really had anything bad to say about it.
I think that I managed to include the necessary features of a successful
magazine review although if I was to re-produce it I would take into consideration
the suggestions that people made.
