REVIEW: Drafting Layout

For our drafting layout of our film review, we researched into several independent magazines, which we thought would best suit the style of our short film. Little white lies (http://www.littlewhitelies.co.uk/) is what we used for our inspiration, and what magzine we wanted our review to potentially be in. Little white lies, are known to be interested in 'up and coming films' , and the audience would be suited as they are more likely to find low budget films appealing rather than big hollywood blockbusters.


We wanted to produce a review which resembled the reviews which are presented in Little White Lies. I thought the simplicity of the pages,show a unique aspect which delievers the funtional information to dedicated film lovers, delievering the technical crticial aspects of the film, yet is a easy read for our audiences through its flowing diolouge. The colour scheme of the simple black and white, draw more attention to the text and the picture, as the readers of 'Little White Lies' aree genuine film lovers, and would appreciate the text rather than having a 'busy and overbearing' page that distracts from the main purpose - to review. The text is the main focus, yet the picture at the top of the page atrratcs the attention of the readers.
