Final piece

I was able to finish my project thanks to the feedback i received in our lesson's focus group where i was able to build upon suggestions that resulted in these improvements

• I added in narration at the start from an external character which helps set the scene and give expalnation behind the protagonist seeing his deceased parents in a ghostly manner, whilst hinting that their death may not be an accident.
• I also added in distinct sound effects to add emphasis and drama to a particular shot which implies there is danger ahead.
• I also added in the telephone effects for the antagonist's dialogue to make it more sinister whilst including another shot o the prtagonist which reinforces his dialogue 'im not afraid' whilst also filling a lengthy amount of time where there was black

Drafting and planning

Here is my step by step response to part of my trailer draft feedback in class.

For the antagonist's line 'you had it coming, your family' i found different telephone sounds on freesound to make the dialogue more sinister.

One is a long monotonous telephone line and the other, the sound of a telephone being put down

Then, using audacity, i took the line of dialogue and edited in the ending sound of the phone being put down and then two telephone lines edited a part for the ringing sound at the beginning

Drafting and planning

Here is the final version of my magazine cover ancillary product.

I was given feedback in a lesson focus group and it was suggested that all cover lines should be of a cult nature to fit with the cult edition approach

Subsequently, i changed the 'Star wars', 'Spielberg' and 'Prometheus' cover lines to 'Rams', 'The Conjuring 2' and 'Manchester by the sea'.

I also adjusted some of the text positions

It was suggested i moved the pug so it didn't overlap with the main cover line but this is actually a convention i picked up on in my research which gives it more prominence on the cover, so i kept this the same

research into similar products / drafting and planning

Here i have visually identified how empire magazine conventions are influencing the current design of my magazine cover.

• I use the large overlapping mid shot of the protagonist like in the Skyfall cover
• The red overlapping pug that advertises content to the readers as seen in the Bourne cover
• The banner across a corner of the magazine as seen in the captain america cover
• the listing at the bottom left hand corner, the overlapping secondary image and conventional anchorage text below the main cover line
