Sight and Sound Cover Analysis - Introduction

As I have decided to do a Neo Film Noir, which is an independent film genre, I have chosen the appropriate publication for the magazine front cover for my film, which is Sight and Sound.

I am going to be analysing 5 different Sight and Sound magazines in terms of layout, colour scheme, font, images and more, so that when it comes to creating my own magazine cover I can use the conventions that represent independent film magazines, to make it appear as authentic as possible.
