How effective is the
combination of your main
product and ancillary texts?
For my main product I chose to produce a film trailer and for my
two ancillary tasks I have completed a film poster and
magazine cover featuring my film. Synergy is seen between all
of my texts in order to appeal to a wide audience and make my
productions authentic and unique.
True Story/Inspirational Aspect
• One thing I attempted to make clear was that the production
was ‘based on a true story’. This quote is seen under the title
of my film poster as well as a ‘Man behind the story’ feature
on the magazine cover. The audience will have a genuine
interest if it’s about a true story and create more hype and
buzz around the film.
• My film trailer also features a voiceover at the beginning
which consists of general inspirational words, appealing not
only to Rugby fans but general sporting fans and athletes. My
film poster features the words of ‘Live, Dream, Achieve’ as a
central part of it and this develops the inspirational
connotations I am trying display to the audience.
Colour
Palette/Font/Costu
mes
• The perceived mood and colour palette is fairly dark between
my film trailer and film poster. I wanted to cause empathy
among the audience and make them understand the gruelling
journey some people go down to achieve their dreams.
• As seen in the film trailer for Rocky Balboa the costumes are
dull and bland to emphasise the dark mood. Rocky wears a
grey beanie whilst he is training out in the cold and the main
protagonist in my film trailer wears a black beanie hat to
emphasise the dark tone of the product. All of the costumes
worn by the main protagonist during the disequilibrium stage
of my trailer are white or black in order to follow the tone of
the production and the story.
• The fonts seen on both my film poster and film magazine are
bold and very conventional of a sporting inspirational film.
Like in the film posters for Rocky Balboa and Raging Bull
(seen below) their fonts display strong and bold connotations.
Magazine Style
• Research of various film posters and magazine covers
showed me that generally film posters have a more
mysterious and dark tone to them whilst a magazine often
offers a behind the scenes element, therefore focusing on
the main star.
• Magazine covers were cleaner, crisper images and I
attempted to find a polished image in my production to use
on my magazine cover in order to make my piece look as
professional as possible.
• Despite it being a completely different genre I noticed that
for the movie Prometheus, Empire magazine covered the
movie in a less enigmatic and un-settling way in contrast to
the film poster, visually speaking that is. The images were
ver different and can be seen on the next slide..
• I wanted to emulate this convention in order to appeal to
as many different audiences as possible. This was
through the use of a lighter background as is seen in the
Rugby World cover. The rugby player featured is Danny
Care and it could be argued that he was in a period of
redemption when the magazine came out following his off
the pitch antics. This light blue background adds positivity
to the cover and offers an exclusive interview with him.
• I thought of doing a magazine cover that was just as
mysterious as my film poster but after some thought
and research, I felt I wanted to show the audience
another angle/layer to my film.
• The light background in the film magazine cover links
to the idea of “light at the end of a tunnel” situation that
occurs in my production. I have previously found out
through research that most viewers want to see
someone defying the odds and I believe I had to show
or hint at this among my three texts.
