Comparisons were made to successful real examples to guide the design of the ancillary texts. Audience feedback also confirmed popularity for the chosen genre, aiding promotion of the film to the target demographic. Overall, the research and matching of themes across products created a cohesive advertising platform.
Media Evaluation Question 3 Presentation

Week 12 pro-forma audiences & products (1)
This document discusses various theories related to audiences and media consumption. It defines passive consumption as audiences simply accepting media messages without response. The hypodermic needle model suggests audiences will immediately believe anything in media. Active consumption is when audiences interact with and influence media.

Reception theory looks at how audiences interpret encoded media messages based on their own experiences and decoding. Spectatorship theory examines how audiences make meaning based on their social, cultural, private, and desiring selves. Different frameworks can lead to varied interpretations of the same media. The document uses these theories to analyze audiences' interactions with the Alien film franchise.

Features can afford famous actors and locations, helping films like Get Out gross over $255 million. Meanwhile, short films tell relatable stories on modest budgets, with examples like The Silent Child winning awards. Overall, features are considered better due to their larger budgets and commercial success, though short films find acclaim at festivals for creative storytelling.

Titles and credits in film trailers serve important purposes. Titles give audiences information about the storyline or characters and are usually shown at the beginning or end of trailers. Credits at the end of trailers acknowledge those involved in making the film, like producers, actors, and directors. Placement of titles and credits depends on genre and editing pace, but production companies are often featured at the beginning while the film title is usually at the end to be remembered. Titles and credits fit genres through style elements - thriller titles are plain with mystery, while horror uses colors like red and bold titles to create fear.

Trailer title and credit conventions
Titles and credits in film trailers serve important purposes. Titles are usually shown at the beginning and provide information about the film's title, production company, and other key details. They aim to intrigue audiences and give them insight into the story. Credits at the end acknowledge those involved in making the film. Placement, style, and content of titles and credits vary depending on genre conventions - for example, thriller titles are often plain and mysterious while horror uses frightening colors and bold styles. Overall, titles and credits are essential elements that introduce and conclude trailers while following genre-specific presentation norms.

Key conventions of movie trailers include showing key moments out of chronological order to avoid revealing the plot, displaying the title at the end, and showing popular stars and directors to attract audiences.
