9. Mind Map:

10. Mood board:
The Visuals of this story as
shown here are what I feel as
though the story is about and
is why its so exciting. Including
images like the demonic
totems bring a lot of dark
atmosphere to a story and can
make an audience hate the evil
more; Including a team of
people fighting off evil and
saving each other will make
the target audience appeal to
the humans more. Including
blood and generally the color
red can benefit as it has
connotations of danger, death
and suffering which can
portray the starving of the
vampires or struggle of the
humans fighting against the
vampires. Also including the
sights of vampires damaged
skin and hands can disturb the
target audience in a way which
expresses how bad being in a
vampire apocalypse could be.

Highlighted in yellow shows
the main subject of the
poster for the film series
‘VAN HELSING’. Looking at
the size and position of the
female you can tell it’s the
focal point image which
give connotation that she is
the protagonist of the film .
In the image she has red
eyes suggesting she may be
a vampire as that is clearly
the genre of the film. This is
effective because when the
target audience see this in
public they will instantly
see the female and ask
questions on what she is
doing and who she is
fighting seen as though
there is a gun in her had
which is engaging. The
dynamic camera shot has
connotations of movement
and makes the audience
feel like they are in the
image which is exciting and
engaging.
Highlighted in dark blue is
the main title of the film
series ‘VAN HELSING’. The
word ‘van helsing comes
from the fiction Dracula
which instantly makes the
target audience think of the
genre of vampires. This is
effective because without
giving away anything to do
with the film the target
audience know what genre
of film it is. The text is
written in white however
its covered in blood, its font
has harsh edges and is
written in capitals. These
details will make the target
audience think of danger
from the blood and
irregularity from the font of
the text. Having positioned
the title centrally and large
on the front cover is great
because apart from the
main image that is what the
audience will be searching
for to find out what its
called.
Highlighted in red is the tag
line saying ‘SISTERS ARE
FOREVER’. This is effective
because it is visible at the
top of the cover and once
the target audience see it
they will think and ask
questions on what it means
which has engaged them in
wanting to find out more.
The tag line also correlates
to the main image as there
are two female characters
displayed who are in battle.
This initially suggests to the
target audience that that
they are the ‘sisters’ and
seen as though they are
carrying weapons they are
protecting each other till
death , referring to the
‘forever’. The tagline is also
in white and has a slight
glow effect around the
letters which makes it
stand out from the darker
and eerie background
which is simpler for the
target audience to notice.
Highlighted in green is the
age restriction for this film
as it is licensed as an 18.
This is important for the
audience because they
need to know whether its
suitable for them. The
logo is used effectively
because its situated in the
bottom right corner of the
cover which is generically
where the age restriction
is making it easier for the
target audience to see it.
It is also here because its
not the most important an
satisfying thing on the
cover so its out of the way
of the main title and
image. It is displayed in
red which is an eye-
catching color compared
to the rest of the cover
which is eye catching to
the audience making it so
they don’t have to search
for age restriction
Highlighted in purple is
the general
background and
location of the cover.
Its set in a very eerie
and dark place which
sets the tone and style
for the target audience
of what the film series
might be about. Having
these dark lighting,
corners and areas of
the cover brings the
main image and title
out more which is
engaging for the target
audience .

Gameplay footage
The Opening screen of the game ‘THIS WAR OF MINE’ is what the audience first sees when they load up the game.
The house colors for the game are Black, white and grey so this is consistent throughout the menus and game as
displayed. The use of these colors give connotation of darkness and evil which instantly gives the target audience an idea
of the style and tone of the game. The use of black can specifically give connotation of mystery and the unknown which
makes it so that the target audience will be questioning for example, the two people in the image. The game title is
situated at the top right of the menu in bold white text. This is very noticeable as it conflicts the rest of the colors in the
menu being black making it easier to read spot for the target audience. In smaller text than the title is the word ‘Survive’
with an arrow. The use of the word ‘survive’ is effective because instead of them doing the usual ‘start’ or ‘play’ they
have used a term which makes more of a correlation to the game and post-apocalyptic genre’. When playing the game
you can see in the screenshot the look of the game continues to be dark and eerie which is good as consistency in house
colors can make a player want to play the game. The game is a 2D interaction game, this is shown in all the interactive
icons displayed all over the screen. All of the icons correlate to the action that the player would want to do. This is quite a
unique type of game which can be very appealing to the target audience. It also can be appealing to a player who isn't
the best at gaming in third or first person adventure game. Using displays at the top of your screen like shown can help
give information to the player on the game. Giving them the word ‘Day(number of days survived)’ can indicate to the
player how long they have been playing and can make them want to increase that number, setting milestones to make
them play more. While the player is playing the game the sound is just as important to set the tone and setting as the
visuals. The game consists of very eerie and slow paced music which adds and aspect of horror to the game. This can
make a player feel on edge while they are playing.

Highlighted in red is the
master head of the
magazine which is
situated in the top of the
poster. It is large and in a
contrasting front from its
background so that it is
noticeable the target
audience . Having the
word 'Vampires' so large
will also inform the
target audience what the
magazine is about from
distance. Apart from the
main image, the master
head of the magazine is
the most important
subject on the page. This
is shown by its size being
the second largest on
the page which is
effective as a magazine
always requires
hierarchy.
Highlighted in yellow is the
title of the main topic of
the magazine. It is situated
just below the main image
which is effective because
once the audience has
seen the main image, they
can easily spot the title of
what they have seen. The
font of the title has sharp
edges and such which has
connotations of vampire
teeth which gives the
target audience an idea of
what the topic of the
magazine is about. The
word 'Blood' is in red
which gives connotations
of blood and general evil.
The rest of the title is whit
which is also effective as it
contrasts from its
background making it
stand out more to the
target audience.
Highlighted in blue are the
titles of some of the
content which is inside the
magazine. These are
situated on the side of the
magazine because they
aren't the most important
thing on the magazine.
They are also effective
because without them
there would be lots of
white space on the
magazine. They are also
effective because it has
information on other topics
and vampire related things.
This means that the
audience may want to buy
the magazine as they are
interested in one of the
vampire topics which are
displayed.
Highlighted in green is the
main image of the
magazine which is situated
in the centre of the
magazine. As the main
image is what usually
attracts the target
audience. This is also the
largest thing on the
magazine as it is probably
the most important thing
for the audience to see.

I could use this colour scheme because overall it
gives of an evil atmosphere. Yellow gives off
connitations of deceit, Red gives of connitation of
blood and danger and Black and grey gives off
connitations of secrecy and darkness. I could use
these colours throughout my products to
maintain consistensy and portray the idea of a
scary vampire story.

When making a poster for the film I would present it in a way my target audience can be attracted to the idea of the
film and will want to find out more and watch the film. One way I could do this is by using a good font and style in my
title. As shown in the example above the title is large and would be bold as it will be noticeable for my target
audience. Adding a ridged font putting blood on letters can be effective as it will give my audience the idea of
apocalypse and danger which implies the genre of the film. In the example the main image is the largest asset as it’s
the thing which is supposed to attract the audience the most. Here I could put an image of the main character or a
vampire which will tell the story just by looking at it. This is effective as the audience will already know the genre of
the film which someone who like vampire films would like. The tagline could be situated just underneath the main
image however not as big as the title. Once the audience read the tagline, they will ask questions to themselves on
what it means which is engaging them and will make them want to watch the film. The credits and mentions at the
bottom of the poster aren't as attractive as the title and main image however its important they are on the poster
as if the target audience have watched a film by the same company or like a particular actor in the film it can make
them want to watch the film weather, they like the genre or not

20. Video Game layouts

my pixel game, I would like the product

all audiences as things such as
