Editing Magazine Review Product

Editing the magazine review product involved firstly placing the chosen snap shoot image into place and editing this image appropriately to fit the size of the established area and also darkening the image for a more spooky effect to further portray its genre.

We also had the idea of adding some colour to our magazine review although this does contradict our genre but does follow the convention set by the magazine NME which traditionally uses allot of colour in its articles. We followed this convention by making some of our text boxes colourful using colour that NME are associated with which is usually blue and yellow.

Our editing process also involved the creation of our ranking system as we felt that we wanted to challenge the convention of a traditional ranking system of stars which involved in research to alternatives which we had the creative idea of a simple thumb's up or down which as we ranked our film average we had to find a sideways thumb. Also as we stated that this review is published in the music magazine NME we had to establish that by presenting the NME logo on our review which is conventionally placed on the top left corner of our page layout.
