Magazine Cover Analysis EMPIRE (Research Into Similar Products)

The main image of Harry Potter on this page is very effective, the blood and broken glasses suggest the genre and are an immediate indication that the film may contain danger, blood, sweat and tears. The big red 'EMPIRE' again reflects the idea of danger and is mirrors the blood on Harry's face. The puffs and pugs on the side of the magazine are extra selling points but again don't overwhelm the main image so Harry is still the focal point. I like the image and layout again Harry is the main focal image on this page and it also includes a bar code a regular convention for any magazine. The words 'Bloody Hell' to any Harry potter fan bring an element of comedy to the cover and makes the cover appear more niche as it is only applied to Harry Potter fans.
