1. HOW EFFECTIVE IS THE COMBINATION
OF YOUR MAIN PRODUCT AND
ANCILLARY TEXTS?

2. THE ANCILLARY TASKS AND THE TEASER
TRAILER
 The main thing I tried to keep across all the media
platforms was the emphasis on colour which helps
to generate synergy across them. I did this as I felt
the role of colour was vital, in particular of the strips
which identifies which team the character and in
turn whether the character is friend or foe to the
main character.

3. Here you can see
how the Red and
white colours are
shown in all media
platforms in turn
showing the audience
the “good” characters.

4. THE ANCILLARY TASKS AND THE TEASER
TRAILER
 I also tried to maintain the Urban, social realism feel
across all media platforms, by using the same
graffiti style font for the title and setting both the
photos and the film in an urban environment in as
this again helped to put forward the theme of the
film ,to make the texts more believable and help to
create synergy across all the media platforms.

5. THE FRONT COVER AND THE TEASER
TRAILER
 For my poster I chose to just use
the main actor from my trailer as
from my research in to magazine
front I found that this is typical of
film magazines. He is also the
actor most featured in the trailer
so would be easily recognised by
anyone who had seen the trailer
before. The actors facial
expression is both moody and
angry which is again shown
across all three media texts as it
helps to convey to the audience
the genre and mood of the film.
Although the character is not
wearing the same clothes he wore
in the trailer he is however still
wearing the scarf which still
means there is the colour synergy
but allows audiences to instantly
tell whether the character is good
or bad in relation to the storyline
of the film.

6. THE POSTER AND THE TEASER TRAILER
 From my research in to film
posters of the genre similar to
my own I found that it was
typical to have the majority of
the main cast included on the
poster. I again tried to create
synergy between the trailer
and my Film Poster. The actors
used in the trailer all appear in
the film poster again making
them recognisable to
audiences that have already
seen the trailer. The
importance of the characters
seen in the trailer is also seen
through the poster with the
main character positioned to
the middle of the poster then
the two “sidekick” characters
positioned either side of him.

7.  Overall I feel my Magazine front cover, poster and
teaser trailer succeed in both engaging the
audience and promoting the film which is the main
purpose of the task. I also feel I successfully
created synergy across both my ancillary tasks
which I feel is vital when trying to make a product
successful
