How effective is the combination of your main product and your ancillary texts?
I believe that to truly measure how well the three parts fit well together we wanted to ask an audience would be a good way of judging it, So we showed them our three products and asked for their opinions on them.
The Effectiveness of the Combination of Products
Overall the reaction for our products was highly positive and everyone agreed that they link in together. But as the film makers ourselves our opinions still hold some weight. So here's our version of our thoughts on the three products.
Overall I'm very happy with the film poster and the message it comes across to an audience about the film and what it's about. Here's what we thought about the film and our reasoning about what we did and why we did things a certain way in the film to get the point across.
The Effectiveness of our Main Product
The film review is professional looking and fits in with the house style of Empire magazines style. The actual content of the review it's self reflects the film with it's outline of the plot and an honest review that would potentially promote the film to an audience.
The Effectiveness of our Ancillary Products
The review does it's job as it looks professional and uses the house style of Empire Magazine's 'In Cinema' section making it approachable to readers of the magazine. The positive review will hopefully create a good impression on the readers to come and see the film in cinema's.
The Effectiveness of our Ancillary Products
Film Poster
Whats is the audience and the purpose for this poster?
The audience for our our film poster would be the same broad range target audience as the film of being a wide range of ages and both genders represented in the demographic due to the genre of the film some people for the supernatural element and some for the romance. The poster does focus more on the romance aspect though however. The purpose of the poster is to advertise the film for the audience to come and see it, but still not give too much away about the actual plot of the film.
Was the poster effective?
From the video with the audience, the poster seems effective as they understand what sort of film it will be and the plot of the film. They seem to understand all the elements of the poster and how they work in the film giving away elements which are needed to be viewed by an audience and after watching the film again the see the twist with the films title and how it link to the story.
Magazine Review
What is the audience and the purpose for this review?
The audience as it is not so much of a marketing tool as the poster, the audience would be different and that being the audience for the Empire Magazine, as that is who would read it unless they were a following fan of the film itself. The purpose of a magazine review is to inform and give a secondary opinion about our film thats not connected to ours.
Was the review effective?
The review does it's job as it looks professional and uses the house style of Empire Magazine's 'In Cinema' section making it approachable to readers of the magazine. The positive review will hopefully create a good impression on the readers to come and see the film in cinema's.
