How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
Our three elements of work consiting of magazine cover, film poster and our film trailer have all worked well together. Within the three elements we have combined the main feautres of our film trailer in each of our three pieces of work, for the magazine and film poster we used two different images in which represent two different things, the film magazine is just of Chloe who plays the "Psyco Girl", this helps the audience recognise who she is in real life but also the difference between her and her character,the film poster is of both the new and popular girl in which they are on different levels on a staircase with the "Psyco Girl" expressing evil and how she is weird. I feel by creating each of these three elements we would be able to create promotional packages to a mass audience in which would bring in extra audience viewers, this is from the magazine being published and read worldwide but also placing the film poster on billboards along main towns but also promote on the side buses, by promoting these two work elements it helps people to notice a new film but also feel interested as the writing is eye catching and bold. I feel that the editing elements in our trailer at both the start and end are very stong in which show the variety of camera techniques we have used, it was hard at first to link in certain clips together as the speaking had to be in specific places but after a few fustrating attempts i was finally able to do it. I feel we have also used a great use of different fonts and sizes which also fit in with the thriller genre of our film! The titles we have used work well with the film footage filmed, they also help to make the audience think what this film could be about but also shall hopefully make them want to watch the whole film when in cinema. I feel that within our film poster we was able to capture a great image which represents how one of the girls is weird and this is shown threw the two different levels that the models are placed on but also the difference within colour, the popular girl at the bottom of the stairs is shown in a bright light and coloured clothing whereas the psycho girl placed at the top of the stairs is wearing a dark coat and the light around her is very dull in which shows a great contrast. The titles used within the poster are also positioned at the bottom of the poster which helps for the audience to see the image much clearer but also the colouring of the film titles contrast well with the image and the white writting in which is used for the bill board which when all linked in and placed together helps to show the thriller film genre. The film magazine contains a great variety of headlines and titles which represent our film "Fatal Twist" but also it looks more realistic as it contain other smaller titles in which give information of what is inside of the magazine but also the latest news and upcoming films. I feel that we have overcome a various difficulties when using final cut express to edit the film to make sure each sequence makes sense and shows a great use of techniques from camera angles, clear film footage and non deigetic music, in which has helped us to make a great film trailer which shows the genre of thriller and relates well with our target audience. We have also learnt new skills in which has helped with not just editing the film trailer but also working on photoshop in which we used to edit the images chosen for our film poster and magazine, the difficulties from using this was we had to edit the photos to help enhance the quality of colour within the image but also help show the messgae behind the image form both actors facial expressions, We found editing the magazine cover of Chloe "the psycho girl" the hardest as to capture this image we used the green screen in which we had to cut around her and for some area's around her body became frustrating where we were trying to get the image perfect. After alot of hard work me and my group have been able to create three different elements of work in which relate to our film and would help to interest an audience so they would watch our film in cinema.I feel that each three products do contain a small amount of weakness in which if we spent more time on we would be able to improve in which would help the qualtiy of our work much better and this could of been done from when filming, getting photos or even when editing in which we could of used other techniques in which would of made the trailer more naturalisitic and like normal trailers, I feel even though their is weaknesses in some elements of our work we have been able to create a very effective and creative film trailer in which works well with the other two elements of work we have created.
