How effective is the combination of your main

product and ancillary texts?

Like most films of any genre the film itself relates to both the magazine front covers it

appears on as well as it film poster. Therefore when creating both my film poster and

magazine I combined a lot of the film itself into both products.

Poster and Trailer;

I made It so as the three main

characters were in the movie poster to represent who the

movie is based around.

The picture on the poster represent the characters the actors play. Albey is a

geek and Sadey is in love with Jack which is shown in the movie trailer.

The use of bright bold colours on the poster were inspired by the

titles used in my trailer, each title is a different colour just like the film

poster sections.

The font used on the poster for

‘JUST JACK’ is the same one used at

the end of the movie trailer. This

is a bold catch font.

The dance trousers Jack wears in the trailer represents that he loves to dance, therefore I

found using it on the magazine front cover would

represent not only Jacks personally but the film itself.

Again like the film poster I wanted include the main

characters on the magazine front cover. Therefore I

used Jack as the main photo and a small photo of Sadey just to represent the movie

more.

Magazine and Trailer;

On the magazine front cover both the photos are of the actors in character

Cleary linking the magazine with the film.

Magazine and Trailer; The main way I connected the movie trailer with the

magazine front cover was through the character Sadey and the love she has for Jack

the main character in the trailer. The two clips from the trailer are the two that show

Sadey’s love for Jack.

The way I have represented love on my magazine front cover is by making

in the Valentine special and the

colour red I used.

The main picture used on the magazine front cover is Sadey in character, this links the magazine with the film a lot more clearly.

This magazine front cover relaters perfectly

to the poster front cover mainly due to the characters I have used on both. Instantly this

links them both as being part of the film ‘Just

Jack’.

This magazine front cover was created for a male audience so our main colours used

where very stereo typical male colours just like the ones used on our film poster. Behind both male characters we used a blue and a green to represent them as

boys the way we used blues and black on the magazine front cover.

I linked the strap line on the film poster ‘The dance floor will never be the same again’

instantly showing the film is about dance with the dance trousers and the disco ball

representing the movie is about dance in the magazine front

cover.

Poster and magazine;

The main female character is used on both the film poster and the magazine front cover showing her role in the movie as well as making her known as an actress.

This magazine front cover is created for a female

audience which is shown mainly through the colours used (red mainly). Pinks and

reds are stereotyped as girlie colours, i used pink to

represent Sadey as the female character in my film

poster.

A lot of the strap lines used on my magazine front

cover were connected with love ’valentine

special’. Sadey is covered with love hearts on the film

poster again representing love.

This is another way I linked both

the magazine front cover and the film poster.
