Before making the official mock ups of the magazine cover Melissa and I decided to draw out two rough ideas of what we would like to create. We decided that it was important for us to feature all of the characters within our film on the magazine cover so we used this idea to create two contrasting magazine covers.


Draft 1


For our first margazine draft we plan to have all of the characters within our horror trailer running away from the zombies behind them. We feel that it is important to represent the basics of what the film is about to the audience so they can then go on and question what the narrative of the film is and so on.

An image of the drawn up version of our magazine draft is below:

Draft 2


This draft focuses on the villian of the horror trailer and we have found from research into magazines the it is effective to have just one character from the film to represent it and to have people remember the film by. By using the zombie the audience will begin to question quite alot about the film because the image will not give much away.

Draft 2 is seen below:

Draft 3


We decided to create a short blog for our ideas on draft 3 for our magazine cover:
