Magazine Analysis

For this post I will be analysing the October 2012 edition of Empire Magazine

Font
For the magazine cover for Empire, we see the sole use of sans-serif fonts. This is to give the magazine a modern and clean look and feel. All the text has been made bold, and simply the different font sizes have been used throughout. Also the same font is used throughout the cover, to maintain its unity, and make it easier to read.

Focus Groups

Today we did a practical exercise on focus groups. One of the more enjoyable lessons so far, as we actually got to eat Sainsbury's Taste The Difference cookies and review them as a group. 

Sucker Punch Analysis

Sucker Punch Opening Sequence Analysis

In the opening sequence for Sucker Punch (by Zach Snyder), first and foremost, the score is PHENOMENAL! Oh my days! I had chills from start to finish. It was epic and beautifully tied in all the various scenes throughout the clip and conveyed the appropriate emotions.

The genre was most definitely an Action, Adventure and Fantasy mishmash with some Psychological Thriller thrown in there (Basically a Hybrid Genre).
