Article: First Draft

Here I have constructed a magazine article reviewing my film. It dicsusses how the film will be presented at the Edinbrugh Film Festival in June 2011 and will also be assessible through online formats at that time. There is a breif interview with the director who reflects on the name of the film and how she feels about it being premmiered at a film festival.
This type of article would fit well in 'Empire' Magazine as the leading film magazine in Britain it would reach out well to the target audience of people passionate about movies.


I believe the house style could be improved, the pink and contrasting yellow appear too feminine for a film magazine that should appeal to both genders, I also think more pictures/screen captures could be used to reveal more about the film and appear more visually attractive.


The NME

I am also considering featuring the article in the NME. Despite it being a music magazine it has a young, edgy audience as the majority of it's readership that I am targeting my film for. The NME website also includes a film review section, so expanding this onto print could also be a good oppurtunity to widen their audience, offering something new and refreshing yet sticking to the indie cultured ethos of the magazine.
