Editing images
This document summarizes the steps taken to edit two images in Photoshop. For the landscape image, the editor added text in a dark green font, inserted and adjusted the charity logo and slogan by changing colors and positioning. The final image has the slogan in the bottom left. For the portrait, the editor removed logos from the subject's clothes, smoothed out jeans and an earphone wire. A pink slogan was added to the top left and a transparent red logo to the bottom left. The final edit decreased the logo's opacity.
Process (2)
1) The document describes edits made to a magazine front cover and contents page in Photoshop. For the front cover, the background was changed to grey, text was moved, the barcode was adjusted, and cover lines were changed to yellow.
2) For the contents page, subheadings stayed the same but info was added, images were moved to the top and grouped closer together, and a social media box was added. A yellow border was used to call out the main article and match the front cover color scheme. The background was changed to grey and additional elements like a website, page numbers, and quotes were included.
Front cover editing progress
I began creating the front cover of my extended project by placing an image of Kay on a white background. I then added books behind Kay as the background but kept a white border around the photo. Using a font website, I chose black text and added a white swirl, placing the title and tagline on Kay's image with a glow effect to make it stand out on the background.
Steps for front page
This document describes the process the author took to come up with the final front cover design. They took their favorite draft design and made slight alterations. Pictures were added behind some text to grab interest, and the images were resized and cropped slightly. One title was removed to create a neater final image with the main focus on the side.
Poster technical skills
We created a poster in Photoshop to promote an exhibition called "Playing With Pigments". We found a simple image of paint splatters online and adjusted the brightness, hue, and saturation to match the theme's colors. We then added the exhibition title, location, date, and contact information using fonts that matched the client's branding and were easy to read against the background. The final poster had bright, eye-catching colors and clearly visible text information.
Photoshop printscreens
The document describes the steps taken to design a digipak album cover in Photoshop. The designer first imported an image of Ella and increased the contrast to make her lips brighter red. They cropped the image and added it to the digipak template at 37% opacity. The image was also duplicated and added to the other inside cover. Text was added including the artist's name from an online font site. Additional elements were included like the album title, song list, and barcode. Lyrics from one of the songs were also added to the inside fold.
Music Video- Good photos
This document discusses photos that were considered for use on a digipak for a music project. It provides analysis of several photos, discussing aspects like lighting, composition, focus, and whether they fit the intended purpose and style. One photo was selected for the digipak because it uses leading lines to draw the eye to the characters, has a nice focused shot, and works well for the planned panoramic effect.
Poster Making
The document describes the iterative design process for a movie poster. It started with the original poster idea, which was then modified over several drafts by changing elements like the tagline, background colors, and adding effects. Key changes included splitting the photo into two sides, one in black and white, adding blurred lines and social media links. Design decisions were influenced by other posters examined for things like close-ups, color schemes, and facial expressions.

Nickies images for media
The document provides details about photos taken and edited for use in a magazine. It describes taking close-up shots of faces to familiarize readers with subjects and using bright, clear images as main cover photos. Photos were edited to emphasize lipstick color, add glow effects, and lighten hair and faces. Mid-shots were taken to show body language and a smiling pose aims to portray women positively. Photos were cropped, darkened, lightened, and given sepia or black-and-white effects to attract readers' attention and portray subjects in different ways for various sections of the magazine.
Asian Paints - Colour Ki Lari
This document proposes a Facebook application called "Diwali Lari" to promote Asian Paints' home makeover services to younger audiences during Diwali. The application would allow users to create a "virtual lari" (firecracker chain) by customizing digital firecrackers with their name and color and tagging friends. Participants would be entered to win weekly and grand prizes. The goal is to create an engaging, viral experience that spreads Asian Paints' message without being too direct or sales-focused.
Film magazine experiments
The document describes experiments conducted to design a magazine cover that fits the style of Little White Lies magazine. Several approaches were tried, including blacking out a model's eyes, applying filters to create different effects, and editing the image to look like an illustration. None of these were fully successful. A later experiment involved giving the image a blue tint and partially blacking out one eye to represent two characters from the featured film. While closer, this design still needed more elements reflecting the magazine's brand identity. Further experiments are planned to develop a cover that successfully captures Little White Lies' subtle, stylized aesthetic.
Editing updates
The document describes the process of designing a digipak and magazine advertisement for a music album. Key steps included:
1. Editing images in PowerPoint and applying a "Pencil Grayscale" artistic effect to give images a sketch-like appearance.
2. Formatting images and adjusting effects like pencil size so images remained recognizable.
3. Laying out and adding text elements like the album title and track listing in selected fonts.
4. Assembling design elements in Photoshop to see how they fit together in the final digipak template.
5. Creating a magazine advertisement using a similar process with an image, text, and details to promote the album release
Steps for front page
This document describes how the author came up with the final design for a front cover piece. They took their favorite draft design and altered it slightly, then added pictures behind some text and moved elements around. After realizing the photo was being covered, the author resized and cropped the photo to shift the focus to the side and removed a title to create a neater final image.
Digipak and poster
The document summarizes the poster and digipak design process for a magazine. For the poster, the writer zoomed in more on the artist's face and used a similar background as the digipak for continuity. Social media logos were found online and only brightness was adjusted to the photo. Red and grey typography was used to contrast the green and black background. For the digipak, the color scheme and images closely followed the plan, though some photos were more zoomed in. A picture of just leaves was replaced with a simple photo of the artist.
media
This document discusses the central image used on a digipak cover and in advertisements. The actress is shown wearing simple black clothes to stand out against the colorful background, taking inspiration from Ariana Grande album covers that also feature the "triangle effect" of a central figure. While the background is colorful rather than plain, the photo was taken with an iPhone 7 to achieve high quality similar to a camera.

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conv...
My media product uses and challenges conventions of real horror trailers and films. By analyzing many horror trailers, I incorporated common conventions like costume design, music, and locations. However, I broke conventions by making the killer a woman rather than a man. I also used normal teenage costumes rather than dark costumes typically seen in horror. While some conventions like codes around genre representation are followed, theories on narrative structure and character types are challenged as my story includes atypical elements.

Landscape Horror Poster Analysis
The landscape horror movie poster depicts an innocent-looking boy standing next to a girl with blood coming from her mouth and yellow eyes, representing a juxtaposition of good and evil. Its landscape orientation and use of dark and red colors to symbolize death and blood diverges from traditional portrait horror posters. The repetitive slogan is meant to become embedded in people's minds to promote the film.
Production of Horror Poster
The document summarizes the steps taken to design a movie poster for a horror film. The designer darkened the image, added an intense close-up of the character's face. Text was added at the bottom with the director and producers' names. Slogans and release date were included to highlight the horror genre. Age ratings and studio logos were also incorporated, with the film title standing out in red to connote blood. Reviews and a magazine cover were added last to make the poster and magazine more realistic.
Dimension Production Company
Dimension Films will produce and distribute the horror trailer. While not the largest production company, Dimension Films has found success with horror franchises such as Halloween, Scream, and Piranha 3D. Dimension Films was founded in 1992 by Bob Weinstein and has experience producing popular horror and comedy films.
Photo Analysis
The photograph is effective for a horror film poster because it only shows the killer's lit up face without revealing anything else about the plot, maintaining simplicity. The black background represents the darkness and horror genre which typically uses this color scheme. The mask looks vaguely scary to audiences, indicating it is for a horror film.
Horror Photograph Analysis
This photograph makes a good horror movie poster as it only shows the killer's face lit up on a black background, giving away nothing else about the film while keeping it simple. The black background represents the horror genre and darkness, which is a typical convention for horror posters. From the poster, the audience can tell it is for a horror film as the mask looks vaguely scary.
Professional Photograph Analysis
This document analyzes and discusses the effectiveness of three horror movie posters. It notes that the first poster only shows the killer's face lit up against a black background, keeping the image simple while conveying the horror genre. It then analyzes a second poster showing a creepy character holding a phone to relate to the film's title of "One Missed Call." Finally, it discusses a third poster showing both the larger killer towering over the smaller victim at the bottom to demonstrate power dynamics and suggest vulnerability, while also depicting the film's setting and the killer's red eyes.
What makes a good photograph?
The document discusses a horror film poster photograph. It notes that the poster only shows the face of the killer, keeping the film details simple and not giving anything away. The black background signifies the horror genre and darkness. Only the killer's face is lit up, using lighting intentionally. Within the killer's eyes, another character can be seen screaming, another horror film convention.
Magazine Cover Analysis' - RESEARCH & PLANNING
The document analyzes a magazine cover promoting a horror film. It notes that the dark colors and clothing on the cover help set the horror genre. The character's blood-stained hand also conveys the genre. Small text is scattered around the cover to promote other magazine content and increase interest. Typical magazine cover conventions like large film titles are replaced with more realism, like barcodes and prices. This makes the cover look more like a real magazine.
Audience Questionnarie - Horror Trailer. RESEARCH & PLANNING
The document is an audience questionnaire about horror movie preferences. It asks respondents about their cinema attendance habits and preferred genres. It also asks about favorite locations and characters for horror films, whether the killer should be male or female, and preferences for horror trailers, including what makes an effective trailer and the order of shots. Respondents are also asked to provide potential names for horror movies.
Final Destination 5 - Textual Analysis
The trailer for Final Destination 5 uses several horror film conventions to build tension and suggest impending doom. It begins with an establishing shot of the object that kills a character. Intercut with this are shots of a woman preparing for laser eye surgery who voices concern that "a lot is going on" in her life. As the surgery begins, monitors show increasing danger from the machine. The woman screams for help as the machine malfunctions, highlighting her vulnerability. Voiceovers explain the film's premise of characters cheating death but being killed later in strange accidents. The trailer cuts between past and present scenes and uses faster edits and music to create excitement and suggest the gruesome fates that await the characters.
Textual Analysis - Sorority row
The trailer begins by establishing the fun, party atmosphere of a university sorority house. However, it soon takes a dark turn when a prank goes wrong and a girl is accidentally killed.
