The trailer ends with the film title and release date to fully hook viewers and provide ways for them to learn more online.
Representational Response For Underhand: Genderatkia011
This document discusses representations of gender in neo-noir films and media. It notes that in most genres, women are portrayed as weak and domestic, while men are powerful. However, in neo-noir, women are often depicted as "femme fatales" who manipulate men and use their sexuality to get what they want, while men are shown as mysterious and lust-driven. The document then analyzes how the film trailer, poster, and cover for a student project represent and conform to these neo-noir gender stereotypes through costumes, lighting, framing, and other elements.
This document analyzes film posters for classical noir and neo noir films. For the classical noir poster of "Killers", it summarizes that the poster uses symbolism like the male cradling the femme fatale to show her manipulation of him, and two men carrying guns and casting shadows to represent violence and the protagonists hiding from their crimes. For the neo noir poster of "The Dark Knight", it summarizes that the dark color scheme represents violence and doom, while modern elements like the billing box update the classic noir style for modern audiences. The analysis provides insight into features to include in a noir film poster.
The document summarizes the improvements made to the student's hardware, software, and filming skills between their foundation and advanced media portfolios. For their advanced portfolio, the student used more advanced editing techniques in Premiere Pro, adjusted the aperture, ISO, and f-stop on the DSLR camera to control lighting in night shots, used the tripod for different camera angles and movements, recorded higher quality audio using Garageband, and administered online surveys through Survey Monkey to collect audience feedback.
1) The document discusses the author's skills using DSLR cameras, including two models used - the Canon 750D and 1200D - for their high video resolution.
2) When taking photos for ancillary texts and film posters, the author used the 750D due to its larger ISO range and faster shooting speed. Manual settings like aperture, shutter speed, and ISO were adjusted to control image blur and limit noise.
3) The author has competence in both photography and videography with a DSLR, and their technical knowledge allowed them to capture important shots for assigned tasks.
This document discusses the conventions of neo-noir that were used and developed in a trailer for a production company called Black City Productions. It describes including elements like tracking shots of characters, close-ups of objects to represent codes and mystery, shots showing a protagonist's worried expression to represent world-weariness, and high saturation/blue tones to create a sense of dystopia. These conventions were inspired by neo-noir films like Brick, True Detective, Sin City, and were intended to establish the serious tone of films the company would produce, focusing on themes of drugs, romance, and crime.
We chose Pathe as our distributor because it is a mini major film company appropriate for our mid-sized budget film. Pathe has distributed successful films like Slumdog Millionaire and Selma. They also have actors like Idris Elba and Naomie Harris that could star in our film. We aim to do synergistic promotions through a musical artist like Adele who did the soundtrack for Skyfall, as Naomie Harris has worked with both Pathe and on Skyfall. Keeping our production and distribution companies the same (Pathe) will reduce costs compared to using separate companies, although larger studios could generate more profits. We will release the film in cinemas, then TV channels like the BBC
1) The document discusses how effective the combination of a film trailer and its ancillary tasks of a poster and magazine cover were.
2) Key elements like the main prop of a knife, costumes implying mystery/death, and the colors black, red, and white representing violence, blood, and purity were consistently featured across the trailer, poster, and magazine to link them together.
3) Distorted fonts on the poster and dripping blood font on the magazine also connected to elements in the psychological horror trailer to subtly link the pieces as part of a marketing campaign.
This document discusses gender representation in the noir genre and how it was applied to the creator's media package, which included a neo-noir trailer ("Azrael"), poster, and magazine cover. In noir films, gender representations are typically reversed, with females portrayed as powerful, controlling, and manipulative while males are weak, dominated, and victims of lust. The creator's works conformed to these representations by depicting the female lead as a femme fatale who uses red lipstick, smoking, and dominance over the male character. However, some elements also subverted expectations, such as having a female detective character. Overall, the document examines how the creator both conformed to and challenged typical gender stereotypes within the
The document discusses how the media product represents particular social groups through its use of mise en scene, camerawork, and editing. It shows the main female character as a stereotypical teenage girl through her bedroom décor and clothing. The antagonist is portrayed as the stereotypical villain by wearing black and hiding in the shadows. While the characters' ages differ from typical psychological thrillers, other conventions like these are followed to represent the genre.
The document discusses the importance of brand identity for promoting a film through various marketing materials like posters, trailers, magazines, and billboards. It then describes how the author developed a brand identity for their film "Depth" through consistent visual elements like a bold, bright font in the title across the teaser trailer and film poster. These materials effectively portrayed the thriller genre through motifs like a dark background, a vulnerable female character, and a mysterious masked kidnapper. The products also appealed to the same target audience of 15-34 year olds of both genders who enjoy thriller films. Synergy between the poster, trailer, and other products helped promote the film and generate a combined marketing effect.
The document provides an evaluation of a media product titled "Stolen" created by Danielle Gallagher. It summarizes how the product used and developed conventions of the psychological crime thriller genre. It analyzed elements like camera work, titles, lighting, costumes, and characters to represent stereotypes and attract its target middle-class audience of 15+ year old males and females. The evaluator believes the product could be distributed by film companies like New Line Cinema or Film4 and garner interest from those who enjoy thrillers with similar conventions like Misery. Feedback on an early cut praised the music, titles, and ability to engage and intrigue the audience about what would happen next.
Media powerpoint evaluation Jodie-Mae HowardJodie-Mae
The document discusses the filmmaker's social drama trailer and how it challenges conventions of the genre. Some key points:
- The trailer uses slow pacing and emotion at the beginning instead of fast pacing and humor like Trainspotting.
- It shows the dangers of drugs and society pressuring youth rather than hiding problems.
- Lighting is darker to highlight the seriousness rather than a relaxed feel.
- The movie poster and magazine use mystery with a close-up of an arm holding a belt rather than showing characters. This challenges conventions of revealing the story.
- Both the film and ancillary materials use similar dark colors, lighting, and references to drugs to portray the darkness of the topic
This document analyzes conventions in 8 supernatural horror movie posters to inform the design of the author's own poster. Key conventions discussed include:
- Using a simplistic white title at the bottom third
- Partially hiding the main threat to intrigue viewers
- Incorporating common horror elements like haunted children
- Relating the color scheme and imagery to the film's narrative
- Crafting taglines that expand on viewers' expectations
- Following the rule of thirds composition
The author concludes they will apply lessons from the posters analyzed, like using minimal props and a single stark figure, to create an effective supernatural horror poster of their own.
This vintage advert from the 1960s portrays stereotypical gender roles and objectification of women. It shows a muscular male posing on the beach to attract the gaze of three women posing for attention. This objectifies the women and promotes unhealthy body image standards for both men and women. When a "geek" is bullied, the women turn their attention to a man smoking a cigar, portrayed as more masculine and cool. The advert promotes the idea that smoking Castella cigars will make men appear fashionable and attract female attention, using gender stereotypes to sell the product.
The document provides an evaluation of a media product created by Rahim Rahat. It summarizes the ways the product uses and challenges conventions of real media in its costume, location, narrative, and camerawork/editing. Regarding representation of social groups, it notes the product's focus on dominant male characters and marginalization of youth. It suggests potential distributors like Fox, NBC/Universal, and HBO based on their productions with similar dark, mysterious, and suspenseful tones. The intended audience is identified as mainly male, between late teens to 35, from middle-class backgrounds.
The promotional materials for "The Devil's Notebook" effectively maintain consistency through repeated use of the female protagonist, supernatural visual elements like scars and a cracked face, a dark color palette, and identical typography and positioning of the film title. This consistency across the poster, magazine cover, and trailer strengthens the horror film's brand identity and creates a symbiotic relationship that will more powerfully communicate the narrative and appeal to the target supernatural horror film audience.
The document discusses promotional materials created for a psychological horror film. A trailer, poster, and magazine cover were created to promote the film and form a cohesive promotional package. Feedback was obtained from the target audience through interviews and social media to evaluate the effectiveness of the materials. The target audience responded positively and found the materials to be professionally done while capturing the psychological horror genre. Minor adjustments were made based on the feedback, such as changing the magazine cover's color scheme to better match the poster.

This document discusses genre conventions in horror film promotion. It analyzes how the group's promotional materials for their film "The Chosen One" effectively used conventions like slow pacing, ominous colors, and stock family home locations. Examples from films like "Insidious," "The Conjuring," "Mama," and "The Orphan" informed their trailer, poster, and magazine cover design to appeal to audiences familiar with possession horror conventions. Key conventions included demonic children antagonists, disruption of domestic normalcy, and a symbiotic linking of visual elements across promotional pieces.
The document provides an evaluation of a film poster the author created. It analyzes various design elements of the poster including the central image, colors, symmetry, and use of reviews. It then compares the poster to an existing one called "Wicked Little Things," noting similarities like the use of a young girl protagonist and isolationist setting, as well as differences like camera angles and emphasis on elements. The author concludes their poster effectively uses conventions from other media while further developing elements like reviews.
This poster analyzes the poster for the psychological horror film "The Silence of the Lambs". It summarizes that the poster depicts Jodie Foster's character Clarice with a moth covering her mouth, suggesting she has a secret. Through the use of colors like red and black, as well as lighting and Clarice's eyes, the poster conveys a creepy and mysterious atmosphere. It also effectively draws in audiences by hinting at the deeper narrative without revealing too much, making viewers want to learn more by watching the film.
1) The poster promotes the horror film "The Devil Inside" about a woman who is possessed by an evil spirit.
2) It uses an image of a possessed nun with unnatural white eyes and a sinister smile to represent the film's theme of possession.
3) The black and red colors symbolize evil and death and help the image stand out, drawing the audience's attention to convey the battle between good and evil in the film's narrative.
This document outlines a film idea combining the romance and thriller genres. It follows a female protagonist who witnesses a murder committed by the male antagonist in the woods. They later meet in school and fall in love. The antagonist later confesses to the murder, creating conflict. The trailer will feature the woods scene, their growing romance, and the confession to build intrigue. It discusses marketing the film through reviews, posters, and targeting both romance and thriller audiences aged 15-24 with a focus on the color red throughout.
The combination of the author's three media products are effective as they use consistent typography, color palette, characters, costumes, props, and shots to clearly connect the products. Specifically, the poster, trailer, and magazine cover for the soap opera "Memory Lane" all feature the same purple color scheme, font, and main character Jamie portrayed consistently to allow audiences to easily recognize the interrelated narrative across the different products. Some improvements mentioned are adding titles to strengthen arguments and including more props or costumes on the magazine cover for stronger cohesion.
1) The poster promotes the horror film "The Devil Inside" about demonic possession. It depicts a nun with unnaturally white eyes and a sinister smile to suggest she has been possessed.
2) Conventions of the poster include a dominant central image providing clues to the narrative, along with the film title, tagline "No Soul is Safe", and production information in a worn font.
3) Symbolism in the poster hints at the battle between good and evil, with the nun's religious imagery contrasted against the title referring to the devil. The white eyes and blank expression imply her soul has been taken.
The document discusses how social groups are represented in horror and thriller films. It notes that teenagers are often portrayed as naive victims and there is usually an antagonist and protagonist. Males are conventionally shown as antagonists to portray dominance, while females are typically presented as vulnerable victims. However, the film discussed in the document challenges some of these stereotypes by having a female protagonist and not overly sexualizing the female characters. The document also examines how the film represents class, age, and uses lighting to further characterize the social groups.
The document discusses a promotional package created for a psychological horror film. It includes a trailer, poster, and magazine front cover that work together to promote the film. Feedback was obtained from the target audience, female ages 18-35, who responded positively and felt the pieces were professionally done. They particularly liked the focus on psychological horror rather than supernatural themes. The filmmaker learned they successfully appealed to and satisfied their target demographic.

COMBINATION OF YOUR MAIN
PRODUCT AND ANCILLARY
TEXTS?
How do the three texts relate to each other
2. WHAT ROLE DOES EACH
PRODUCT HAVE IN THE
INDUSTRY?
POSTER (PRINT BASED): The poster
was created by the distribution
company, Open Road Films. The
poster acts as a marketing aid
alongside the trailer. It is a popular
choice of promotion as posters can be
displayed in numerous locations and
therefore are viewed by a varied and
large audience. Open Road Films will
create a symbiotic partnership with
cinemas in order for the poster to be
displayed in the cinema building and
on their own forms of promotion
(leaflets, tickets, food boxes, drinks).
3. WHAT ROLE DOES EACH
PRODUCT HAVE IN THE
INDUSTRY?
• TRAILER (AUDIO/VISUAL): The trailer was also
created by the distribution company. Likewise to
the poster, it is part of the promotion package that
will draw in a variety of audiences. Trailer’s have
been a convention of marketing for a long time as
they are a interesting, captivating and efficient
way of communicating to an audience exactly
what the narrative is, the theme, genre and
character type/relationships. Open Road Films
will furthermore create a symbiotic partnership
with cinemas, not only for the poster but to also
allow the trailer to be shown before films of a
similar target audience (age/genre). In return
Open Road Films will promote their cinema. We
were considering distributing the poster and
trailer to independent cinemas, such as Picture
House. As they will have audiences that are
interested in niche films. However as there are
elements of an action and thriller genre, they may
also set up a partnership with chain cinemas,
such as the Odeon to draw in a larger audience.
4. WHAT ROLE DOES EACH
PRODUCT HAVE IN THE
INDUSTRY?
• FILM MAGAZINE COVER (PRINT
BASED): The magazine cover and
article was not part of the
promotion package by the
distribution company but was
produced by the BFI. BFI chose
Sight and Sound as the magazine
to feature the film as they wish to
appeal to niche audiences that
are passionate film fans. Thus
they chose Underhand to appear
on their front cover as it is a film
that seeks a niche and particular
audience.
5. NARRATIVE
A clear connection between our
film poster and trailer is how they
both depict the crime and violence
involved in the narrative. From the
use of the gun in the poster this
links with the bottom two
screenshots from the trailer.
However one contrast is how in the
trailer we have reversed the role by
not just giving the male the gun but
also depicting the femme fetale
with the gun thus implying the act
of betrayal which is a further
convention of noir, as well as crime
and violence. Moreover crime is
suggested in the poster with the
gun and the smoke however it is
further emphasized in the trailer
(shown by the top two
screenshots) where we detail how
there is a drug group.
6. NARRATIVE
The trailer and poster are connected by how
they both depict the family relationship
between the father and son. This over the
shoulder shot portrays how the father and
son are happy being in each others company
and the closeness of their relationship. The
poster similarly depicts the father and son
relationship by having James looking at his
Father. However this is slightly different to the
trailer, where it is clear that the equilibrium
has been broken by the depiction of violence.
This gives more insight into the Neo Noir
genre, with the suggestion of personal code
and violence.
7. NARRATIVE
All three texts are linked by the
way they communicate
narrative and one key link is
how they depict the Neo Noir
genre. The poster and
magazine are clearly similar in
their use of colour. We decided
to use the contrast of black
and white in both products as
this will highlight straight away
to the audience that it is a Neo
Noir film as this is a typical
conventions. The trailer is also
connected by how we have
used low key and chiaroscuro
lighting.
8. NARRATIVE
Trailer and poster – femme fetale –
communicated more strongly in the poster
as manipulating and controlling but similarly
the smoke hiding her face communicates
how she is hiding something (deceitful
nature)
The trailer and poster are connected by how
they communicate language in terms of the
characterisation of the Femme Fetale. She
is communicated to be more manipulating
and controlling in the poster by her being
the larger more prominent image and how
she is positioned with her hand over the two
other character. However a clear link
between the two texts is how the smoke is
hiding her face, thus depicting her deceitful
nature – in the trailer the mid shot reveals
the mise-en-scene of the cigarette thus
allowing for the link of the smoke covering
her face.
9. NARRATIVE
Similar to my previous point,
another connection in terms of
narrative is how all three texts
depict the noir convention of
smoking. This conveys the
narrative of a youth, drug group.
The mise-en-scene of smoking also
aids the narrative of deception
which is further emphasized in the
tagline “Can deception be the way
to truth” which is depicted in the
poster. This is by the smoke
masking their faces thus
symbolizsg deception.
10. GENDER REPRESENTATION
• When creating a media text it is essential to encode representations so that it
makes it clear and efficient for audiences to understand and decode. The encoded
representations have to work within the story and this is the job of the director to
convey.
• This is especially key with Neo Noir, as representations are often atypical in this
particular genre.
• Generally women are presented to have lower status than men, however Noir
rejects this stereotype by presenting the women (symbolised by the Femme Fetale)
to hold the power.
• The Femme Fetale is presented to be able to manipulate men and control them to
aid their own malicious will.
11. GENDER REPRESENTATION -
TRAILERThe Femme Fetale bears remarks to
classic noir by conforming to the
convention of smoking (seen in Double
Indemnity). This also represents the
female with masculine qualities as a
cigarette is deemed with phallic
connotations.
As the director, I decided to have the smoke hide her
face to symbolise her hidden deceptive quality that she
masks through out the film in order to get what she wants
from the male protagonist, Ross. This represents the
female character as manipulating, controlling and cold.
(Thus rejecting stereotypes of women being motherly and
warm hearted.
During this shot Lilah’s line ‘No he hasn’t’ in response to Max’s interrogative to Ross
‘Have you met my sister yet’ connotes her power over Ross by disconnecting him by
using the pronoun ‘he’ rather than his name. This represents how the female
manipulates him from the outset. It also represent how the male gender is submissive
to a powerful, provocative women.
We also represented the femme fetale in a sexualised way.
Thus conforming to the idea of ‘the male gaze’. We applied
dark red lipstick to suggest passion and lust but also
symbolise danger. We also used the costume of a laced
black dress to make her appear attractive and pleasing to
the male audiences. This represents how this character use
her sexuality as her source of power.
12. GENDER REPRESENTATIONS -
POSTER
When we were taking the actual
photo of Lila(femme fetale) we used
manual focus in order to create a
shallow focus by picking up the hand
& cigarette but leaving her face fairly
blurred. This was a link between our
trailer and poster by foreshadowing
her underlying deceptive and
vengeful nature.
The idea that her true nature is
hidden behind her involvement in the
drug group is represented through the
smoke hiding half her face. This
possibly juxtaposes the previous idea
as it represents that women fall into
the background when in a dominant
male group – however the portrayal
of her malicious nature possibly
suggests that this is something she
wants.
The femme fetale is depicted
physically large and positioned
above the male protagonist and
his son. This is to represent how
she is in control of the
protagonist and his life –
symbolised by her puppeteer like
stance.
We decided to incorporate a gun into the image of the male protagonist to
represent the idea that men are violent and aggressive. However by having
him as the character that is directly under her hand this firstly represents how
she is possibly the source of his violence but also the idea that his physical
control is no match for her emotional control & manipulation.
On first glance the incorporation of a young child possibly
represents the stereotype of a female having a motherly
nature. However by positioning him to be looking directly at
the protagonist this subverts the stereotype by the male
being represented with parental responsibility. Then, with
Lila’s hand also over him, this represents that the female
manipulates and dictates the life of the son.
A link between the poster and trailer is how she is
seen to be wearing a dark lipstick in both. This is to
represent how she uses her sexuality to manipulate
and control others. It also conforms to the theory of
the male gaze and therefore the female is
presented is a provocative and objectifying light in
order to trick the male audience into trusting her.
13. GENDER REPRESENTATIONS –
MAGAZINE COVER
Half his face is cast in shadow,
implying a secretive and
mysterious aspect to the image. It
also represents how men can be
shady and that they can mask
who they truly are.
Again, we linked the three texts with the
noir convention of smoking in order to
connect the three texts to the same film.
But we also link the representation of how
both the male and female gender are
hiding their true selves by getting involved
in the drug group and taking drugs to
ignore who they really need to be.
Eyes are key to be able to determine a character. If you are
unable to see the eyes it forebodes that the character is
hiding something; therefore although this image is of the
director and not a character, it still represents how the male
character in the film is masking his true identity. Firstly, he
does this by going undercover but then it seems to deepen
when he deceives himself by getting too involved in the drug
group and forgetting that his true loyalties lie with his family.
This is a typical representation in Noir as the protagonist
usually hides from the world in order to forget what evil is
happening or what bad deed they have committed.
Through his costume, the male in this image is
represented in a juxtaposed way to the female. The
man in this image (George Falls – the director) is
depicted to be in a shirt and tie which conforms to the
ideology that men are perceived as successful, formal
business men. However by him having a loosened tie
and smoking, this represents how this director has
chosen to reject those gender stereotypes – thus this
is greater depicted by the director giving the female
the control and power whilst the male protagonist is
seen to be submissive to her manipulation.
