Layout conventions of a Film Review- Charlotte Hudson

 

• The review uses a variety of font types: 'Aparajita', 'Century Gothic' and 'Yahei'. The bulk of the text however is Aparajita.
• The use of bold capitals is also used a lot- to highlight important people and dates and also to highlight the categories of the review.
• Everything is center aligned, and the 3 columns of text are aligned with the image at the top of the review. The columns are justified to the left, however the very last column is justified to the right and so is the text in the review column.
• the column lengths are around 100mm and the width is 52.4mm
• The ratings are justified to the right and are in the font 'Century Gothic' and the different categories are all marked out of 5. 
• The first letter in the first column is 3 lines in depth and 5 letters wide and is also font 'Century Gothic'.
• The title is the boldest section of writing and you lower case letters, only capitalising the first letter of each word.
• Italics is used a lot throughout, when telling the reader who directed the film, started in the film and the release. Also used in the marked out of 5 columns (these are comments made by other reviews so are italicised for that reason.
• The image width never changes but the length varies depending on how much writing there is.
