It discusses identifiable titles that hint at the film's genre or plot, the inclusion of company logos and production credits, strategies for generating social media buzz, and how music and sound are used to set tone and emphasize actions. Release dates are also targeted to maximize viewership among key demographics like children on school breaks or adults on holidays like Valentine's Day. Specific trailers are analyzed that exemplify conventions like titles relating to the film's antagonist or broken/jagged text reflecting the plot.
Film trailer analysis
The document analyzes and compares three film trailers:
1) Goodfellas highlights Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro to attract audiences familiar with the gangster genre. It uses upbeat music contrasting violence to create an eerie feeling.
2) Notorious focuses on Biggie Smalls' life and music career rather than actors. It shows his involvement in crime and relationships to depict a multi-dimensional biopic.
3) Rock 'n' Roller establishes itself as a typical Guy Ritchie gangster film through its setting and conventions like multiple competing groups. It aims to attract fans of Ritchie's previous successful British crime films.
Codes & Conventions in Trailers - General
1) Film trailers typically include certain codes and conventions such as showing the title of the film towards the end to help viewers remember it.
2) They also usually display the release date/information towards the end to generate interest and encourage viewers to watch the film.
3) Production logos are often the first thing viewers see in a trailer and can provide clues about the genre and quality of the film based on the production company's reputation.
promotional package!
The marketing campaign for the 2011 psychological horror film Insidious utilized low-budget promotion strategies that proved effective. An initial promotional clip and poster were released to generate early interest. Then a teaser trailer was launched to build hype among the target teenage audience before the full theatrical trailer. Both trailers focused on scary scenes, unsettling sounds, and minimal plot details to intrigue viewers. Promotion also included festival screenings, social media pages to engage fans, tie-ins on other shows, and competitions to broaden the audience internationally. This low-cost approach helped Insidious become highly profitable.
Social Realism Film Posters Analysis
The document analyzes several movie posters for social realism films. It discusses various design elements used in the posters and how they aim to attract audiences. Common elements included are: plain backgrounds to make text/images stand out; main actors/characters in large font to create recognition; taglines to hint at narratives; reviews/awards to establish credibility; and images that provide clues to the film's storylines or targeted demographics. Overall, the posters analyzed use graphic and textual elements strategically to intrigue audiences and encourage viewership.
Dark knight trailer
The trailer uses various techniques to attract audiences to the new Batman film. It shows intense action shots and explosions to convey the film's genre as an action thriller. Famous actors Christian Bale and the late Heath Ledger are featured prominently as the hero and villain. The trailer cuts between short clips at a rapid pace to generate excitement without revealing too much of the plot. Intense music and sound effects heighten the tension. Through these techniques, the trailer effectively promotes the film and generates interest in its target audience.
Taybah's Evaluation - Question 1
The document discusses how the magazine cover and film poster were designed based on conventions from existing magazines and posters, particularly Empire magazine and a poster called "Static". Key elements like the large title, central image, and credits are placed similarly. The trailer was also designed based on conventions from analyzed horror trailers, including building tension and including quick cuts during intense scenes. It challenges some conventions by being set during daytime and having a female lead character. The goal was to create intrigue and mystery for the audience.
Ellens Real media-research
The document analyzes several movie trailers and identifies conventions used within each trailer. For the Carrie trailer, conventions discussed include using written words for narration, disturbing music to set tone, introducing the supernatural storyline midway through, including religious elements, and using sound bridges. For The Wolf of Wall Street, conventions examined are using music to set a fast-paced tone, introducing the biographical element and main character early, highlighting the famous lead actor, employing fast editing, and mentioning actor awards. For Safe Haven, conventions analyzed are showing the protagonist in danger, using seagull sounds to represent tranquility, including a title describing the genre, and introducing the love interest. For Into the Storm, conventions identified are using
Evaluation Question 1 -
The teaser trailer uses conventions of the genre in several ways. It employs a consistent color scheme of pinks, blues and whites across all products to link them and suggest the film involves a boy and girl. The introduction of the main characters, Lily and Aiden, dressed in stereotypical gendered styles establishes the genre as a teen drama. Standard bubbly fonts are also used consistently to connect the products and imply a younger audience. While influenced by films like "It's a Boy Girl Thing", the teaser trailer also challenges some conventions by introducing characters in the foreground and having a moving background with static text.

la voix de julie - characters
This document provides character descriptions for Juliet De Vaux and Sebastian Myers, the main characters in a story. Juliet is in her mid-20s, trendy and confident yet often falls for the wrong guy. Sebastian is in his late 20s, handsome and successful in his career, but remains modest and polite.
La Voix De Julie
Juliette is a 26-year-old socialite who realizes it is time to stop her frivolous lifestyle and chasing the wrong men, and find a gentleman to fall for. However, she must decide whether to settle for second best or find the right guy. The film takes inspiration from classic romance and film noir genres but with a modern twist. It aims to appeal to both younger and older audiences with its blend of conventional and unconventional elements.
D:\Media Studies\Mr Lau\Music Magazine\Dps Analysis 2
The document analyzes a double page spread (DPS) in a magazine about a French synth pop band called The Teenagers. It notes the band is known for explicit and arguably misogynistic lyrics. The DPS uses a blue color scheme instead of the usual red, white and black. Images take up more space than text, reflecting the audience's preference for visuals over reading. The style of the DPS matches the front cover with a consistent black and white color theme and similar fonts. No prior knowledge of the band is required as the "Radar" section introduces new artists.
Overall Concept Of My Magazine
The overall concept of the magazine is minimalism, taking inspiration from magazines like ID, Vice and Pop that have simple, minimal covers focusing on high quality images and text over cramming elements. The magazine's front cover layout was carefully designed, with clean, stylized photography and limited text to keep the design clean cut and stylish, gaining recognition for the magazine's overall minimalist style.
Nme Front Cover Analysis
The document summarizes the key elements and design choices of the front cover of a special 10th anniversary issue of the magazine NME. The masthead is placed in the top left corner in red font outlined in white. The main cover image is a black and white collage of influential artists over the decade. The cover lines in the middle are laid out like a poem without explicitly stating the magazine contents. The layout guides the eye from the masthead down to the cover lines. The monochrome color scheme with splashes of red and simple language make the cover clean and celebrate the decade of music.

The masthead is placed in the top left corner in red font outlined in white. The main cover image is a black and white montage of influential artists over the decade. The cover lines in the middle are laid out like a poem without explicitly stating the magazine contents. The layout guides the eye from the masthead down to the cover lines.

Nme Front Cover Analysis
The masthead is placed in the top left corner which is NME's trademark. The cover features a black and white montage of influential artists over the past decade. The cover lines are laid out like a poem in the middle and include the main line "10 YEARS IN MUSIC" where the 10 is shiny to catch the eye. The selling line is placed above the masthead rather than below and promotes it as "the story of the decade". The color scheme is mainly monochrome with splashes of red in some fonts to add a sense of Britishness.
