The document discusses how synergy was created between the products created for an A2 evaluation through consistent use of the title, presenter, images, color scheme, text size and dialogue. The same presenter was featured in both the documentary and double page spread to clearly link the two. Quotes from the documentary were also used in the radio advert to show they were related. Overall, the evaluator felt the products were easily identified as being connected through these linking elements.

2. INTRODUCTION
• Throughout our A2 production I do feel as though we were able to
create synergy. We were able to do this through each of our products
through the speech, color scheme, presenters, text size, images and
mostly the title. Therefore this made is easier for our target audience to
see that all of our products were related through the above.

3. IMAGES
• Synergy was clear within our DPS, this is because the presenter was on
the double page spread as the large imagine. The reason for this is that
the audience is then able to see a connection from the documentary to
the DPS. This was done so that the audience was able to see the
similarities and know that the DPS we have created is about/on the
documentary.

4. TITLE
• Our documentary ‘Does gaming affect education?’ was referred to in all
3 of our A2 products. The reason being so that it was known throughout
all products what the topic was on/about. It was known in our
documentary at the start with the title screen. Further followed in the
DPS at the top left in clear bold writing to ensure the audience knew
that the DPS was related to the documentary. Lastly it was known within
our radio advert when our presenter said “Tune in to watch ‘Does
gaming affect education?’. Therefore in all of our 3 products, it is clear
and evident what the product is about or relating to.

5. DIALOGUE/QUOTES
• Throughout the creation of all A2 products, we tried to use certain lines
which were from the documentary so that all products related directly to
each other. This was first evident in our radio advert when we used
dialogue from the documentary (vox pop). The reason being that its
clear to listeners that its directly from the documentary and that the
radio advert is clearly related to the documentary. We also did this in
our DPS by using a pull quote specifically from the documentary so that
our DPS was coherent.

6. THE PRESENTER
• In our productions we made sure we used the same presenter
throughout. The reason being that it meant that all products were clear
as the presenter was able to push his opinion out on each product.
Therefore by doing this the documentary kept a coherent message as it
was the same presenter speaking to the audience. This is a good thing
as the connection between the audience and documentary remained
there. By using images of the presenter on the DPS it meant that the
audience could easily recognize the documentary through the DPS as
the presenter is recognizable from the continuation of the same
presenter in the documentary.

7. DID THESE WORK WELL?
• In all of our created A2 products, I feel as though we were able to ensure
that they were easily identified as being related. This was mostly evident
in our DPS by using the presenter as the main image from the
documentary taking up half of the page so that our audience are able to
recognize the DPS due to the presenter being clear from the
documentary. However there were still links for example in our radio
advert by using quotes/dialogue from our documentary as the audience
would be able to identify the documentary vox pop from the radio
advert.
