Evaluation Question 1

All of our three products have been influenced by real media texts in some ways, but we have also challenged forms and conventions because it improved the overall look of the products.

Link to the Flickr website where I have added notes to the posters and annotated them in detail.

Text included in our trailer

The text we included in our trailer linked very well to our story line and through the text we were able to make the story line clear to the audience. The font of the text we wanted to keep the same as the font for the title of the film poster 'Twister', the font was found on the website dafont and it fitted perfectly with the theme horror. The font was called 'face your fears' and we used it throughout our trailer, film poster and magazine front cover.

The first line of text stated that there were four best friends and we made the word 'best' the colour blood red so it would link to our film poster.Although in our narrative there were five best friends the hidden secret was held by just four of them so we thought it would be more clear of writing four instead of five. 

This is where the tension in our trailer would start to build up because the first text was just informing the audience how many friends there are and this starts to build them up to something bad. The hidden secret tell the audience that the girls have a hidden secret that they do not want any one to find out. Again we have changed the colour of the middle text to blood red keeping the running  theme throughout all of the products we have created. 

This line builds even more tension because at this point the audience know that the trailer is about four best friends who have hidden a really big secret and this sets the audience up for something big, because someone who wants to get revenge is going to make them pay for the hidden secret. 

Costumes

We thought about the miss-en-scene very carefully because all the costumes had a reason why the girls were wearing what they were wearing. The idea behind the costumes were that they were at a fancy dress party where they got the first text and then that whole night their lives were turned upside down. Each of the costumes reflected each of the girls personalities.
