1. Uses
Web Banner
Web Banners can be found in various places across the internet. They
are often found above, at the side and at the bottom of a web page. There are
also various types of web banners such as interactive and video based. The
video web banner often contains the URL of a video which is played on a loop
or can be stopped with a pause or volume option. Interactive web banners will
send you to the featured website when clicked on.
Web Banners can come in all different sizes depending on the use the
position or the size of the web page. Pop under Banners can be found at a top
of a web page so that when a mouse hovers over the top the banner increases
in size and almost covers the whole screen. Large rectangle web banners often
contain mini games such as Deal or no Deal where you click on the box and you
have a chance of winning a prize. Sometimes corrupt banners can give your
computer viruses, so not all banners are reliable in that sense.
DVD Menu
DVD menus are menus that link the audience to the different parts of
the DVD. There many different options on a DVD menu such as Scene Select,
Special Features and playing the actual film. Often the DVD when menu will
have music from the film and even sometime monologue. The background of a
DVD menu can be anything from still image to video clips from the film.

2. Credits
Credits are found at the end of the film. They are used to tell the
audience who made the film and who was in. The text goes down or up the
screen often on top of a black background. In other cases the credits are
shown on top of video or still images. Sometimes the credits are shown next to
deleted scenes so that the audience keeps watching.

channel or production company. Stings are found between programmes and
