Evaluation: Question 1- In what ways does your media products use, develop and challenege forms and conventions of real media products?
Teaser Trailer:
DEVELOP-
CHALLENGE-
POSTER:
USE-
DEVELOP-
Magazine Front Cover:
- Production/distribution company at the beginning.
- Action, fast pace
- Title and 'Coming Soon'
DEVELOP-
- Shows we have developed our trailer rather than just using typical horror conventions.
- Based on a social network- Facebook.
CHALLENGE-
- Show more than normal teaser trailer.
- Makes you wonder is she the 'last girl' at the end.
- Mixture of social network ad horror may make it a reality horror.
- Typography effect to annotate the reality complex of the trailer and the dangers of social networking sites.
POSTER:
USE-
- Researched the social networking site poster and seen the use of the computer tool bar, (search engine) and added my own effect with my title and tagline. Also the production company and website is at the bottom on the poster.
DEVELOP-
- Different images, mosaic into main characters face.
- Main image of main characters face (Beaten up)
CHALLENGE-
- Mosaic of main characters face although i did see this on the film magazine using my own images i create this myself in photoshop.
- Set up like a facebook page - tagline.
- And not showing cast is a challenge for my poster.
Magazine Front Cover:
USE-
Main image in centre, main film headline in middle of the page (large font)
- Subtle colours, rather than bright colours. Kept the colours from my original colour sceme on poster and trailer.
- By using the main image as an eye, and duplicating the image out of the film where shes tagged in an image being tortured. Not like usually magazine, can be said to be a challenge.
- Adding different fonts to add the magazine cover.
- Using colours which match the connotation of my film.

Research & Planning- Progress Magazine 1
- I have decided to change the colour scheme? Do you think it looks better?
- I have decided to take the red out and replace it with the blue to give connotations of what my trailer is about.
- I have also made the white more brighter in the eye to make the main image stand out more.
