Magazine Cover Shot Types.
These are a few magazine covers that I have looked at that I liked the shot type or placement of images on it.
The first is for Star Trek and I liked the black and white close up shot on the cover, it's quite unique and it definitely grabs your attention and the eye contact with the audience really draws them in.
I think this could be definitely be something I could easily accomplish for my genre, although I don't know whether the black and white would work for my genre but I could always adjust that on my cover.
The second is for Sherlock Holmes and it's a mid-shot from the waist up and he actually covers the masthead and the background is very murky, there is actually a lot of space on this cover and I think I could use a mid-shot for my cover as that was one of my original ideas although I didn't have the image overlapping the masthead but I think that this could possibly work with my idea so I could potentially look at using that.
The last one is for the Adjustment Bureau, which is something that is probably out of my reach as the image is a long shot with a dynamic background and in my film, it's very much about simple battered backgrounds which would not look as good as something like this on a long shot cover so this is probably something that I should avoid.
