The document summarizes efforts to reshoot promotional materials for a film project. The original shoot during filming only captured basic pictures with poor lighting. To improve quality, the crew set up three-point lighting and used a DSLR camera on a tripod. They took a variety of shots, such as full body, laughing, and low angles. The reshoot was successful in providing higher quality, more professional-looking photos with better variety to distinguish the magazine cover from film poster. The new photos will enhance the persuasiveness of the marketing campaign.
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.

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary tasks
The combination of the main product (trailer) and ancillary tasks (magazine and poster) were very effective due to the continuity across all three. Similar dark colors like black and red were used to represent the horror genre. Font, images, and other elements like the four-star rating and tagline "The secret is out" were also consistent. This continuity helped link the products together and make them appealing and professional for the intended audience. Minor differences like the color of the tagline and release dates were acceptable to add some variety. Overall, the parallel design and shared elements of the trailer, magazine, and poster made for an engaging horror-themed experience.
Question one
The document discusses how the media product, including a poster, magazine, and trailer, uses and develops conventions of real media products. The poster includes elements like the main image filling most of the page, a large central masthead to attract attention, and credits and details along the bottom. The magazine similarly centers the main image and places the large masthead and title alongside it. The trailer uses common title elements like "based on true events" and credits to signal it is a trailer. Locations in the trailer also follow horror film conventions, shifting from a normal to creepier setting.
Pie charts
Our audience research found that most viewers are interested in comedies and dramas between 30-60 minutes in length. Action and sci-fi shows are also popular but tend to attract slightly younger male audiences. Overall, lighthearted content that can be enjoyed by the whole family during primetime continues to be in high demand.
Magazine cover designs
The document discusses magazine cover designs created by Lilly and the author to gain insight into what they wanted their magazine covers to look like. They took inspiration from other film magazines but ultimately strayed from that idea, creating something different by placing the masthead horizontally at the top of the page rather than vertically on their final cover. They also included many buzz words to attract readers whereas their initial plans called for a plain cover with little text. Overall, they were pleased with the final outcome despite not sticking to their original plans.
Character profiles
The document discusses costume choices for characters in a trailer. Joseph will wear all black clothes including jeans, trainers, and a coat to appear casual but smart while also reflecting the color's mysterious qualities. Mary will wear a white dress to signify purity and a potential marriage infatuation with Joseph, while also allowing her to have a possessive or controlling demeanor through a death stare. The characters' costumes help establish their personalities within the context of the trailer.
Shots
This document defines and describes various camera shot types including close-ups, extreme close-ups, cut-ins, cut-aways, two-shots, over the shoulder shots, noddy shots, point of view shots, and weather shots. It also explains the concept of "crossing the line" or using reverse cuts, where consecutive shots are taken from opposite sides of an imaginary line dividing the scene, which can be confusing due to the sudden reversal of viewpoint and action.
Font choices
Ancient Moon Productions chose the font "Trajan Pro" for its horror film poster because it fit the horror theme. The text was found online and is more conventional than original text. The same font was used throughout to maintain continuity and consistency in the poster design, making "Our Little Secret" look professional and achieve the aimed for horror look.
Anaylisis on my poster
The poster came out how the creator wanted, with the main character Mary as the background filling most of the page to draw attention. Text was added in separate layers, including the film title in a horror-style font with a mirror effect, and credits, release date, and age rating to provide important audience information. The creator was pleased with removing the original background and making Mary the clear focus as the main character creeping from a crack.
Analysing movie posters
This document analyzes several movie posters and their conventions. It discusses the typical elements found on teaser, main theatrical, and character posters such as the main image, film title, tagline, credits, and release date. Specific posters analyzed include The Conjuring, Saw VI, and The Silence of the Lambs. Key details examined are the images, text, colors, and how they are designed to intrigue audiences and provide just enough information without revealing too much about the plot.
Progression powerpoint
This document summarizes the progression of designs for a film poster over five iterations. The final design was chosen as it featured a transparent main image of the character emerging from a crack, credits for the actors and directors, a 4-star rating from The Guardian, and the release date of November 2015. Text and visual elements were chosen and arranged to create intrigue around the horror film's secret while linking stylistically to the production company logo through use of moon imagery and light purple colors. Minor adjustments were made at each stage to refine the composition and increase the creepy atmosphere in line with the film's genre.
makeup tutorial analysis
This tutorial document outlines how to create makeup for the character "Mary" for a video. It details the materials needed, including glue, foundation, lipstick, eyeshadows and blusher. The first attempt used eyebrow pencil to extend the mouth and add red lipstick on top to make the lips look bigger. The chosen final look added bruises all over the face using the listed materials to create a creepier appearance, with a bloody mouth suggesting a horror theme to depict Mary keeping Joseph's secret of accidentally killing her.
Analysing film trailers
The Transporter Refueled trailer focuses on Jason Statham's character Frank Martin, a professional driver for hire. His father has been kidnapped, forcing him into personal revenge missions. Key moments include fight scenes and car chases. The title appears late in the trailer to help audiences remember it.
Dope focuses on stereotyped teenagers, including the protagonist Malcolm. It features quirky, youthful music and mentions actors Forest Whitaker and Pharrell Williams.
Fantastic Four's trailer ends with its title and credits to help recall the film. It references the importance of X-Men and uses typical suspenseful music to engage audiences.
Film magazines
Film magazines typically feature a main image of a character from an upcoming film, with the film title placed above or behind the image. They also include a main feature article, direct addresses to readers, identifying information like the title, date and issue number, and promotional elements such as pull quotes, buzz words, and coverlines to attract audiences. Additional elements are a barcode, a strip listing the magazine's contents, the website URL, and consistent typography.
Shooting risk assessment
This risk assessment identifies potential hazards for a film shoot at two locations - a media room and Babb's Mill park. At the media room, risks include tripping up the stairs, being hit by an opening door, and equipment being stolen. At the park, risks are transporting equipment by walking such as tripping or getting run over, minor injuries from walking around, students getting lost, lack of supervision leading to poor behavior, and medical issues among students. The document rates each risk by likelihood and impact to determine an overall risk level from 1 to 4.
Shot list....
This document contains a shot list for a film titled "Our Little Secret" produced by Ancient Moon Productions in 2015. It lists 54 shots ranging from establishing shots, close-ups, flashbacks, and more to tell the story of Joseph who becomes separated from his friends in the park and wakes up in a dark room with no memory of what happened. The shots include dialogue, music, and location details to depict Joseph having flashbacks and dreaming, eventually waking to find Mary above him.
Conformation for drama room for filming
We have emailed Ms. Pountney to confirm filming in the Drama room on Thursday from 8:40 until 9:40 and provided backup times if that slot was unavailable.
Storyboard
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Pitch
This document provides information about a group project to create a horror film trailer. The group originally had 4 members but split into two groups of 2 because they had too many ideas. They decided on a production name of "Ancient Moon Productions" and the film title "Our Little Secret." The plot involves a boy named Joseph who is taken over by a spirit and experiences flashbacks to his dark past. The document also includes descriptions of the main characters Joseph and Mary and plans for filming locations.
Half term reflection
I have made progress this half term by creating a pitch for my project that included an embedded video clip explaining the plot and synopsis. I learned how to create and embed the video clip into a PowerPoint pitch. When presenting the pitch, the volume was too low for the synopsis and plot to be heard clearly. In the future, I will need to check for technical difficulties. I also created character profiles with 3D models and costumes, and analyzed the characters. Additionally, I created risk assessments for filming locations to ensure the safety of myself and peers.

The shots include dialogue, music, and location details to depict Joseph having flashbacks and dreaming, trying to piece together what occurred. The film uses various camera angles and editing techniques to reveal more of the mystery surrounding how Joseph ended up in the dark room.

We decided to go for the design of the main theatrical poster so we could make Mary the main focus, were including the title of the film, star names, tagline, credits and distributor as well as the release date. We chose to use this design as it was most relevant to our trailer, it looked more professional and it included all the conventions of a movie poster. The other deigns were good however it was not what we were particularly looking for as we had a set plan for the poster.
