· This is the front cover of another EMPIRE magazine. It follows the codes and conventions of magazine front covers in that, the mast head is big, bold and at the top of the page, the cover lines are down the sides of the page, and the main cover line is slightly larger and in bold. There is also a strap line along the bottom. This is something I will need to copy in my magazine.· The photograph on this front cover tells us a lot about the genre if the magazine itself. We can see from the use of effects and streaks of light that it is an action/sci-fi film. The bright colours attract your attention and make you look at the magazine.
· The way in which the light surrounds the protagonist makes him almost appear godly and therefore important. The audience understands that this character is central to the film and may even be a symbol of hope.
· The fact that the ‘silver surfer’ is flying over a city at night is almost a cliché of an action or superhero movie, and tells the audience a lot about the genre of the film.
