2. PRODUCTION


In real industry, the same production team would
produce both my print products, but a different
production company would produce the documentary. A
marketing team at the film company would source
material from the film to produce the poster and send
out publicity „packs‟ to magazines so that they can
complete their reviews. However some companies
review the film separately once the film has been shown
in cinemas. The review may appear on news websites
or on separate, independent review sites.
The poster has to correctly represent the film, as my
documentary has a professional feel to it I would need to
also connote this in my print products. This would
include keeping the colours consistent and not having
too many different bright colours as it may look childlike,
which is not what I aim for my print products.

3. “THE LOOK”

My ancillary tasks would have the same feel as the
documentary, which means that a professional look
would need to be established. As I aim for a
professional documentary, it is likely it will be serious
and not have humorous features. The logo which is
shown top right, of this page is what was shown in both
the review and poster, this is to show that the same
production team made both the review and the poster.

4. POSTER



My final poster has a professional feel to it,
the colours are consistent throughout, blue
is the colour I used the most as it
represents social networking. (Facebook
and Twitter)
I used two of the interviewees that were in
my documentary this was a good idea as
the audience could have a connection with
the documentary simply from looking at the
poster. Their facial expressions gives a
good vibe, as they are smiling it doesn‟t
necessarily show a serious documentary,
but it does however give an example of the
type of people which are going to be
involved in the documentary.
There position suggest that they are going
to be interviewed together, they are also
looking at one another which could also
suggest that the documentary isn‟t simply a
question and answer documentary but
instead it‟s a discussion to hopefully find a
conclusion.

5. POSTER

The idea of having social networking
logos coming out of the heads, came
to mind when I was looking at social
networking sites online. I thought this
represented that they feel an overload
of social networking sites and they are
constantly thinking about them.
The poster also suggest that its mostly
about young females which could be a
disadvantage as the proportion
between males and females were very
much, equal.
The social groups weren't essentially
represented well in my poster, but it did
however represent „everyday‟ people
were in the documentary, not only
experts.

6. DOCUMENTARY



From my research I found that most documentaries interview a
„expert‟ for mine I interviewed to different teachers, the location
and outfit of what the expert was wearing had to represent a
professional look, which I think I achieved. The image shown
on this page, is an example of one of my experts being
interviewed, I asked Miss Smith who is a Media teacher to
discuss her ideas on social networking, she dressed in a smart
shirt and cardigan, and we videoed her in her office which
made it look professional.
We also cleared any things that were on the desk to make sure
that their was no distractions and the focus was specifically on
the expert.
She spoke correctly, and slowly and kept her facial expressions
subtle which was what I needed to make sure that it was
serious and professional looking.

7. DOCUMENTARY



I also interviewed people within school and out in
Manchester to get a general public view, these were
dressed in casual clothes and the locations represented
the public, for example some of the interviews were
filmed outside. I filmed one in a book store after seeing
two girls who suited the conventions I was trying to
achieve.
The two girls which I interviewed were appropriately
dressed, and were well spoken so when the discussion
was well developed and in detail.
Filming in a book store was a good location as it was
quiet so the interviewees were heard, and it also meant
that I could film the shot so that the magazines/books
were behind them showing straight away that I filmed it
somewhere else other than in school.

8. DOCUMENTARY
I also used snippets of news reports which added to
the seriousness of my documentary, the way in
which they presented themselves and spoke gave
across a serious feel I changed the colour of the
news report to black and white to add to this.
 The news reports were sat a distance away from
another and spoke to one another still both in shot
of the camera. They both wore suits which
represented them being professional.

9. REVIEW


As well as my poster I also had to
write a review for my documentary.
I also kept the colour consistent
throughout, blue was the main
colour which I used. I also used a
image of two of the girls I
interviewed which is also shown on
my poster, this links all three
together.
I looked at other reviews online, so
that I knew I was laying it out
correctly, I handed a few drafts into
my teachers and after getting
feedback I changed some things on
my review like grammatical errors
but more importantly the colours as
it was quite plain in my first couple
of drafts.

10. OVERALL


Both my print products and my documentary, all tied into
one another. They follow the conventions of what I
aimed for, for example I wanted the colour blue to be
consistent throughout, this was shown on both my print
products on the borders and in some of the text and also
in my documentary when the statistics were shown.
They all had a professional feel, as my poster and
review were well structured and the interviewees I used
in all three were appropriately dressed.
