COVERS AND CONTENTS My entertainment magazine research found similar sets of codes and conventions. The use of sophisticated fonts,  close up  solo shots and bold colours form minimalist colour schemes. I intend to replicate this on my covers by using a  close up  to mimic the covers of Variety and Vanity Fair and a group shot like those of Hollywood reporter. Through asking a group of my friends I found that 16-25-year olds think that magazines like Hollywood Reporter and People are aimed at  30-year  olds and that they preferred the style of fashion magazines like Wonderland.

When I showed my focus group my first draft of the contents pages, they didn't like the layout or the text I used. Their opinion on the covers was that the sell ...

I used my previous research for the covers and contents to create the website. As per the marking scheme I used much of the same design features like the graphic details, images and articles titles. Seeing as they liked the features I added to the covers and contents, I added them to the website to create a cohesive set of products.
