EVALUATION-Q2

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary task's?

My main product was my film which was then advertised by my film trailer, poster and magazine cover.

The top three images are still's from my trailer, then theres my poster and magazine.

The main image that link's all three of my product's together is Danny (the murderer) as he is in all three. He's the main character in the film which means he's the main image in my poster and mag too. People would be able to see it's the same person easily as he's portrayed the same in all three product's so even if my poster did not have the title on it people would still be able to tell it's a poster for Love hurts.

The main indicator though is the title and as you can see it's wrote the same in both the ancillary task's and the same colour in all three products. For all my product's colour was a big factor for me, and it linked all my product's together. The mojority of all my stuff is in black, white and red.

In my trailer the second half of all my clips were in black and white and when the text comes up, red flows across it. Then in my poster it's all in black and white except the blood and the titles. My magazine cover has colour in it but the backgrounds near enough black and the title's are in red again and there's some random, red blood splats on the cover too.

The black and white indicates that everthing's split into two: either good or bad, there no in between. As there's no colour in it, it make's everything more eary as there's no bright colours to indicate brightness and happiness.

Red is the only colour in all three products . In the poster it's only the blood that's in colour as well as the title's that look like they have been written in blood, which is also the same for the magazine cover. As this is the only colour, it show's it's importance. The main signifier for the colour red is usually blood, danger or love. These things things is what my film is all about. The blood and danger because the main persons a serial killer who kill's woman. However he end's up falling in love with a woman , much against his own will, which is the love part. I made the colour red important in my work because of the way it make people feel when they see it.

The way iv created all my products make's my film mainly aimed at 'D.I.N.K.Y's, or young couple's but who are over the age of 18. This is because it's all about someone falling in love which would appeal to couple's who would watch it together, or maybe mainly woman would like the romance side of it. Although the love story in my film is under strange circumstances because the woman is falling in love with a serial killer. This side of is what would attract it to the males so my film has a wide target audience. The ancillary task's are also aimed at both unisex as i dont beleive its aimed at one sex more than the other.

My film does not have a specific release date shown on any of the products, it just says coming soon on the trailer and the poster. If my film was going to be released in real life the release date would be shown in teaser's trailer closer to the time of it's release date and maybe on a different layout poster. For now my products are to get the audience excited about the film coming out in the future so by the time it did come out, it would have so much advertisement that a large scale of people would want to watch it.
