How we made our cd pane
For the CD design, the team found a template to guide the overall design. They erased background elements in Photoshop and added a black backing color to represent depression and conflict throughout the CD. The main text "Mad World" was chosen as a symbolic reference to the song's meaning of life being crazy and mad. An image of a protagonist covering his face was added to portray emotional conflict and grief. The black and white color scheme represents good and bad, with white symbolizing hope and black symbolizing darkness.

Making my final film poster
The document provides feedback on a film poster draft and details changes made for the final poster draft. The feedback suggested diminishing the star ratings and emphasizing the reviewer words and names to enhance credibility. It also recommended removing one distributor logo and adding the film's release date. The final poster draft makes these changes, decreasing the star size, adding an 's' to director, using "coming soon" instead of a specific date, and keeping only one distributor logo.

The document discusses the use of conventions in the production of a student media product. It describes 9 frames from the opening of the film. The first frame uses the Columbia Pictures logo to establish familiarity. The second introduces the fictional production company Caprican Productions. The third uses soundtrack synchronization. Subsequent frames show an establishing shot, a tension-building hand on the banister, a pre-death scene, the killing, and an ending shot of the main character walking away from the crime. The document also discusses the target audience, low budget, and YouTube promotion of the film.
Filmposter drafting
The document summarizes the steps taken to design a movie poster in Photoshop. It describes converting the photo to greyscale, cropping it, and experimenting with fonts and layouts to feature the character and film title prominently against a dark grey background. Additional design elements were added subtly, such as iconography and text related to the film's genre and themes, to provide hints to the audience while keeping the focus on the central character portrait.
Evaluation question 2
The ancillary texts like posters and radio trailers were important to promote the film production. The group had difficulties creating the initial posters but eventually decided on a final poster. They researched posters in similar genres for inspiration, particularly drawing from the pink and white color scheme and character displays of the Pretty Woman poster. Their final poster used these conventions with a love triangle storyline hinted through character placements and interactions. It also included film details like the title, certificate, actors' names, and reviews. Their radio trailer consisted of a voiceover advertising the film and dialogue excerpts to entice listeners without revealing plot details. In conclusion, the poster and radio trailer complemented each other when released together, showing creative synergy within the group

The teaser trailer was 1.13 minutes long to match typical trailer lengths. Editing techniques like cut to black and gradual speeding were used to build tension. Dark tones and ominous sounds created an unsettling mood. Minimal plot details aligned with conventions to pique interest. The title was placed at the end to linger in viewers' minds. Research informed the trailer's style and color scheme.

Question 2
Throughout their media project, the creator aimed to maintain consistency in genre, style, and target audience. Specifically, they conveyed the crime/thriller genre through dark lighting, costumes, and a mysterious tone in the teaser trailer, poster, and magazine. While the products used common characters, images, and fonts to link them, the creator feels the combination and branding could have been stronger, such as keeping title colors consistent across items or applying the same styles uniformly. Overall, the products coordinated well but some minor inconsistencies were noted.

The document discusses how a group has effectively combined the main elements of their film product with ancillary texts to promote it. Specifically:
1) They used consistent pink and blue color schemes across all materials to represent the two main characters and attract their target adolescent audience.
2) Imagery of the protagonists was featured in all ancillary texts to establish characters and convey their personalities through style and poses.
3) Fonts were carefully chosen for each product to look professional and allow recognition between materials in promoting the film.Jonathan Glazer - Auter
Jonathan Glazer is a renowned music video and film director known for his innovative use of techniques like color, lighting, and speed to convey emotion. He first found fame directing music videos for songs like Radiohead's "Street Spirit," and has since directed films and commercials. Glazer often drains color from videos to create an unhappy atmosphere and uses lighting to focus on characters' facial expressions and convey their feelings. He also manipulates color and speed through techniques like slow motion to immerse viewers in the mood of songs and highlight hidden messages. The biggest theme across Glazer's work is using technical elements to heighten the emotional tension already present in the music and lyrics.
Textual research two
This document provides an analysis of the trailer and poster for a horror film called "Identity." The trailer uses quick cuts between disturbing shots of accidents and blood to set an unsettling mood. It then introduces the characters while displaying scary title cards that leave open questions. The pacing of cuts and loud sounds increases dramatically before revealing the film's title. The final shot continues to show falling rain, representing how the problem remains at the end. The poster features the silhouettes of the five main characters against a background that hints at the film's twist, with the title and slogans standing out in red to attract viewers.
Editing process
The document discusses the various editing techniques used in Adobe Premiere Pro to create a music video. Audio tracks were used for the song and talking segments. Video clips were filtered with black and white and tints, split into four sections on the screen using key frames, and transitioned from corners to the center. Key frames were also used to fade clips from black and white to color. Speed adjustments changed the pace of some clips. Overlapping shapes and double exposure effects were added to clips.
Semiology
This document discusses types of signs used in film posters and their meanings. It provides examples of iconic, symbolic, and indexical signs. Film posters use signs like costumes, lighting, colors, and body language to convey messages and hint at the genre and plot. Effective posters deconstructed in the document use faint facial images and placement in the sky to indicate a spirit or death, and establish settings and postures and scales to imply searching and difficulty in finding someone. Color balancing and bold titles also help audiences quickly understand the genre and title.

The document summarizes the steps taken to edit a photo in Photoshop to create an album cover for an EDM artist. It describes starting with a gray background and placing the photo on top. Settings were adjusted to lower brightness, increase saturation and change hue to fit the EDM genre. Text was added using the artist's standard font. Effects were used to gradually fade the image into the background to imply deterioration from the negative effects of EDM culture. The album title was centered across the artist's eyes following conventions. Feedback was gathered on font options before finalizing the cover design.
Question 2
Our main product was a 5-minute horror film called "Casecosis" filmed in a forest setting. We produced a film poster and review as ancillary texts. The poster features the main actors and forest backdrop to advertise the film. The review provides a summary and rating to help audiences decide if they want to watch. Both ancillary texts effectively feature the main actors and use similar black and white aesthetic and font as the film to clearly link them together. The combination of the film, poster, and review promotes synergy and creates promotion greater than any one product alone through their interconnection.

1) The digipak and magazine advert effectively promote the music video through consistent visual references to the video's locations, colors, and themes. Drawings and stills from the video are featured throughout the digipak in different color variations, and the magazine advert also includes a drawing from the video.
2) These visual connections create a coherent promotional package that allows the audience to easily recognize motifs from the video. The drawings aim to reflect the video's narrative of a female protagonist's personal journey of self-discovery.
3) Cultural references to folk albums and artists further enhance the promotion by connecting it to the genre and adding layers of meaning relating to themes of finding identity and inspiration.
Evaluation q2
The combination of the main product (music video) and ancillary texts (digipak and magazine ad) is highly effective in creating a coherent promotional package that references various elements of the music video.
The digipak panels use drawings, locations, and color schemes that directly reflect and reference scenes from the music video, telling the narrative and journey of the protagonist through the changing colors. The magazine ad also features the protagonist in a hand-drawn image of a scene from the video shot, tying it back to the overall package. While breaking some conventions, the promotional materials as a whole successfully engage the target audience by reflecting themes of finding identity and independence.

The document discusses how a media product uses conventions of real trailers to target a teenage audience. It describes choosing to create a romantic drama trailer genre to build suspense. Simple fonts and a black background were used for titles and credits to give a teenage look. Locations like a canal gave a romantic atmosphere beyond typical school settings. The trailer used calm intro music that intensified during conflict before calming again. Voice over was also included to aid the audience and prevent boredom from the repetitive music.

Top 10 advert analysis
The Cadburys gorilla advert uses a single static camera shot that slowly zooms out from a close up of the gorilla drumming to reveal the full scene. It has a linear structure that builds tension through a slow start and matching of the Phil Collins song. The use of purple backdrop and animated logo are meant to associate the brand and promote their new logo. The basic shots and emotional music response are used to keep the audience focused on the entertaining gorilla.
The Skittles advert uses alternating close ups between characters to focus on whoever is speaking. It has a linear story at a steady pace without music, using slow dialogue for the sad main character and fast for the happy extras for comedic effect. Icon

Here are some key observations and insights from the survey results so far:
- The audience is mostly younger (16-19), so the trailer should appeal to that demographic. Trends in their answers may reflect generational preferences.
- Most don't watch trailers very often, only when exposed through ads or at the cinema. The trailer needs to stand out and compel viewers who aren't actively seeking them out.
