4. My magazine layout has been used
from magazines such as empire where
the characters will be stood so they
look empowering. Sort of standing over
people and looking down on them. This
is to give the image effect, to make it
stand out more than other magazines
that would be competing.
Things such as add-ons and extras that
are in the magazine were also displayed
in very empire type of way using shapes
and a variation of colours to make them
stand out more than the rest.
I tried challenging myself by adding
something that no one else would
have, I combined two upcoming events
in an image using Photoshop and
added them to my magazine so that it
gave it more originality compared to
others.
5. I developed my uses and layout of
headings through magazines such as
‘Total Film’ to be specific it was a Sherlock
Holmes issue from around 2011. I then
developed this and made it much simpler
o fit in with the style of my film, which
was very social realist. I also flipped the
way it was viewed by making the header
and name of the film at the top instead of
the bottom.
6. The layout of my poster making it so that
each side is as though it is owned by one of
the characters is an idea that I thought of
myself, by doing this it helps to stand out on
its own and look different from the rest. It
gives it a type of structured layout that
works very well with the images chosen.
The layout of images with use of colour was a
combination of things I seen on a Django poster and
a Bullet Boy. I then developed this into my own
unique style.
From the django poster I got the idea of combining
a black and white image with a coloured and white
background to make the image look as though it is
further into the foreground.
With Bullet Body I developed the idea of
having a profile view of the head and made it
so that the two profile heads were together
almost making them one, but not actually
joining them together so they were one
person, getting the idea across that people
still think for themselves.

8. The first noticeable thing used on my trailer would be the opening credits. I have used an
official preview sign that is on the start of my trailer. This was done to add a real aspect to
my work so that it looks slightly more professional than something that would have just my
production logo on.
Things such as my production logo
were added to give it a realist
feel, this was changed to make the
logo on a stand alone page so that
it was more recognizable than
anything else.
9. USE
Here I 'am showing that I have used an over the
shoulder shot, to add more of a cinematic feel.
It helps to give each scene more depth.
This technique is used in many films to add the
effect. It is also mainly used when two people
Are having a discussion. This is usually followed
by an establishing shot which helps to put the
audience in their place.
10. DEVELOP
I developed my sound effects to give a more realistic feel, the sound effects that were
added, are things that we found very hard to imitate in real life. For example we added the
sound effects of dogs barking to make more realistic and on edge.
We also developed how the transitions work to make them look very smooth, it fades into the
transition instead of cutting to it.
11. CHALLENGE
I challenged the fact that the age of my
characters were much younger than any of
the other films out at the moment. By doing
this it makes the film a little bit more edgy and
realistic.
We also challenged the fact that we were
filming in Greater Manchester, because most
films will stereotypically be filmed in London.
