Evaluation Question 2 - 'How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?'






















Here are my three media products that I created:
Film Snapshot (bottom), Film poster (top-right) and Magazine Review (top-left).
Putting them together like this allows a better comparison, and so makes evaluating easier.






In this prezi presentation I have outlined all the key elements about my products that I think work well together, and the similarities between them. I feel that the more similarities there are, the better they tie in with each other and so making it easier for the audience to recognise the film.






During this video, a member of my audience talks about certain aspects of my media products that he thinks work well together, for example, how the genre of horror is brought across from the media products to the audience.

Evaluation Question 1 - 'In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?'

In this prezi I have analysed Question 1, and to do this I used existing horror films to help me compare my work to theirs. In doing this, one is able to see how I have gained my ideas and put them into my own short film.

Feedback For Film Poster - Final Draft



                   Final Draft                                                                                        First Draft
























During a lesson, I brought both of my film posters up on the screen (to compare the pictures) in order to see which one people preferred. The final one gives off a lot more information about what the film is about, however the effect on the image is slightly lacking behind the previous picture. This is because the lighting is too light in the final draft, therefore the eerie/old photo look to it is lost. So I shall play around with the image and try to change the angle of the lighting and perhaps dim it, while attempting to make vertical and horizontal lines that go through the image stand out more.
