MY FINAL MAGAZINE COVER

This is my final product of a magazine cover featuring my film, 'Hear My Cry'. I used a black and white image as i find them overally effective towards the target audience as it creates tension and shows something negative is likely to take place within the film. The pose of the girl is a rather timid, scared one however she shows authority relating to the film as she was helpless when she was murdered however she is staying strong and trying to get justice by having her murderer locked up in prison. The title of the magazine 'Total film' helps the audience identify what magazine this one is, hopefully helping me sell my film as it is a well-known magazine. I decided to keep the blood spot stain in a similar place so it represents my film and becomes a symbol helping people recognise 'Hear My Cry'. The sub headings of 'Extra...First Looks...Reviews' all make the magazine realistic towards the audience as a real magazine would contain these aspects. I included a circle so again represent a realistic magazine but also to make mine different from other typical ones. 'Hear My Cry' the title of my horror/thriller film is placed in exactly the same spot to again help the audience recognise my film followed by the slogan of 'A decade in the making.... (and) the world's greatest movie has finally arrived' this supports my film and gives an indication that it is going to be big in the media industry hopefully making the target audience want to come and watch my film at the cinema.

MY FINAL MOVIE POSTER

He is the final product of my movie poster for 'Hear My Cry'. I decided to keep the background of black and white to contrast the good and evil within the film itself, showing that both good and bad aspects apply throughout the whole thing, it is basically foreshadowing to the audience and influencing them to watch the full film itself. I placed the girl central as it is a significant main image within the page, however i opted to make the opacity of the image down to 55% so hopefully it is more effective as it symbolises she is dead but as she is still able to speak to her best friend and seeks help, she is still partly present to life but not fully represented by the opacity. The pose by the girl i final causes tension as she looks awfully scared as she has been brutally murdered and seeks justice, i also decided to have her half facing away so it looks like she is going but not fully disappeared yet. The fate blood spots appeared to show that death and murder does occur within the film itself, basically again foreshadowing events that take place without giving too much away and spoiling it for the viewer. 'Introducing Brogan Nicholson' is placed directly at the top of the page in white and a gothic font to again basically create tension and effect upon the audience, but also it shows she is a big star and this may make people want to come and watch the film at cinema expecting it to be good as all her other films are. 'Hear My Cry', is the title of the film and in hand written, red font to create a spooky, haunted effect but also to make my film distinctive from other horror/thriller films out at this particular time period, so mine stands out. The slogan of "Isolated, Lost, Alone", supports the other aspects present on the page as it indicates that more than likely the girl on the page is isolated and needs help, it gives a basic overview of the plot of the film. I used this particular colours on my movie poster as they are dark and represent death, however there is some light present to support the story line of her not been fully dead yet. The red,black and white colour scheme i am going to keep consistent as it looks professional but also people will be able to relate them colours to my movie, 'Hear My Cry'.

I throughly believe this particular movie trailer for 'Evil Dead' is effective towards it's target audience as it uses frequent flashing scenes that create tension, both terror and horror is expressed in the trailer itself by the clever use of imagination. The characters, makeup and props used support the fact that the film genre is a horror as blood is used to represent death, hopefully scaring the viewer. The fact the producers have decided to a dialogue frequently to explain and give a basic overview of the plot of this specific film.

MY FINAL PRODUCT (MOVIE POSTER)

This is the final product of my movie poster featuring 'Hear My Cry', all i have changed was the background from a dark, gloomy forest, to a black and white strip to hopefully create more effect towards the target audience, i do believe it does this by creating both a negative and positive feeling towards the audience, giving indication that good and evil is present within the film itself. The black represents the cold, dark, isolated feeling the young girl feels both when dead and alive, however contrasting with that the white on the background represents the justice she is trying to find from hunting down her murderer and having him locked away in prison. Bar the background everything else i decided to keep the same as i found it effective, but also rather distinctive as i haven't seen another horror/thriller genre poster presented similar to mine.
