Having analysed a review presented in EMPIRE Magazine and its online counterpart, I thought it would be interesting to analyse a review of an exclusively-online magazine. I wrote a freelance review for one such publication, the first magazine edition of AMAZEPOP, a few months ago. The magazine features mostly music news and reviews, but also a few film reviews. It is laid out very similarly to the magazine version of the Hitchcock review I analysed, with a quantitative percentage score in a small font at the very bottom. The in-house writing style for EMPIRE Magazine is relatively informal, and it is similar to AMAZEPOP; this style may not be the most effective for reviewing our film noir short because of its tone, but it might be interesting to experiment with different styles.
