Conventions Of A Magazine Spread

I have done some research into the conventions of a magazine review page spead of a short film, i looked at different film magazines such as EPIC, TotalFilm, Empire, from looking at these film magazines i have discovered that most film reviews take a double page spread and have plenty of sneak peak pictures of whats in the film to grab your attention, they also use bright colours in the background as a form of eye catcher and because of this you are more likely to read this page, they often have interviews of some form with actors, directors etc, we have decided to use this idea in ours but have tweaked it and our going to do the interview from the perspective of one of the films characters and not the actor playing the character, the magazine reviews often have long paragraphs with lots of information etc, but we have decided to use short paragaphs with different information but not giving to much away so that the reader will have to come see the film.
