Film Magazine - Graphics Style


This is our design for the ancillary task (magazine). We chose the title 'canned' as it is a short, snappy name that is memorable, it also is quite relevant as the word 'canned' is media terminology, it is also suited to our genre 'social realism'. For the main image, we photographed our lead actress Naomi Porter, and edited the photo using Photoshop; we took inspiration from the independent film magazine ‘Little White Lies’ and added a posterized effect to create an illustrative style image. By adding a pink overlay to the main image, we hoped to create contrast between the image and the masthead, our reasons for choosing the colour pink are because it is visually striking, and fits in with our film theme. We have chosen unconventional typography and have stuck to two main fonts so that our magazine has a theme and is coherent. We believe have included most of the typical conventions for film magazines whilst maintaining our individual style.
