Empire film cover analysis.

Main image- the main image is obstructed by the mast head, which after looking at various "Empire" covers I found to be unconventional. However, the Main image is a medium close up of an actor playing his character, which is a convention ive noticed in film magazines.

coverlines- there are there are 3 extra taglines which isnt as much as some other film magazines, and 2 of them are quite small print. The colour scheme is predominantly red white and black, however there are elements of green and yellow in the text.

there is a header, featuring only 1 advertisment. They are offering free posters of avatar and dracula vs. frankenstein.

there are 4 additional images.
2 of the images are next to the header, advertising small versions of the free posters available inside.
the other 2 additional images are of the two other main characters in the film "twilight" which is in the main tagline.
The main tagline has 9 words, and 3 are in yellow which are stating the film, and which one out of the several it is.
The bar code is conventionally situated in the bottom left hand side of the page, so it doesnt obstruct the main image. The date and price is above the "M" as it nearly always is in "empire" magazine.
