1. How effective is the
combination of your main
products and ancillary
texts?

2. When devising my horror trailer, magazine front cover and poster I wanted to
create a clear link between these media products that the audience will be able to
pick up on. The main link between these media products is the colour scheme and
the font of my typography that I used throughout my media products. For the my
title’s I decided to keep the same Times new roman font and colour in order to
keep my media products consistent. I wanted to ensure that the colour red was
an integral part of my colour scheme because of the red within my can be seen in
the form of blood within my trailer.

3. I also made sure that I incorporated my tagline throughout my products.
My main tagline I came
up with is “Jack is back”. Therefore, I made sure this tagline came up in
my film poster and horror trailer. I wanted to ensure that my target
audience didn’t miss the tagline I first got two characters to quote the
tagline. Then I got put the tagline at the end of my trailer.

4. Low key lighting is another technique that I made sure that I
kept consistent throughout all my media products in order the
add the effect of darkness towards my media products. So,
that the it disorientates the audience and increases their fear
as they are unable to see everything within shot and therefore
faced by the unknown

5. I attempted to keep the typography the same font throughout all my media
products. The reason why I chose a Times New Roman font is because from my
research in horror productions, especially into slasher horror this font is used for
the typography. Therefore, in order to help make my media products look like
genuine horror productions.
