6. In my magazine, the front cover has been made
well and really represents the kind of soap
opera im doing well. For instance, the cover star
is crying and looking straight at the
audience, and also is clutching a teddy.
This shows the emotion that my soap
will be and shows that the soap includes
something about a child, thus the teddy.
The other way in which the reader is
dragged into the soap is by the mascara
running down her face. This provokes
genre well, as most respectable women
wear make up, and it will make the
audience wonder what is so wrong that
she lets it be ruin by crying
7. The angry poses of the other characters on the
cover from other stories, reflects to the audience
how feeble and fragile my character looks, and all
in all, when three pieces of media are combined
together (billboard, front cover and Trailer) the
story in which I have made comes together and
becomes more realistic.
8. Costume and setting is used

10. As you can see I used the same sort of style for my billboard poster as my advert card.
This is because I was wanting the colours to be memorable and match the way
through. Plus it matches the ITV1 logo
I involved the same black back ground
to add effect. I did this by using the
green screen (more on this in Q.4)
11. But unlike the ITV logo card, I used some
of the features out of this billboard
For example, I used the ITV logo and placed it in the bottom left hand corner of the
page. I also made sure I put the name of my soap and what time and days it is
on, just like the other billboard.
But unlike both of the boards
I used, I put in the
‘#flashinglights’ for twitter
users, which will encourage a
younger demographic.
