Evaluation - How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
1. My documentary, radio advert, and poster are
closely linked, as they all have the same theme,
tone, content and colour scheme.
I put a lot of time into research for my adverts, in
order to be able to see what was best for the
purpose of advertisement for my documentary. I
also used the style guide in order to make sure that
my documentary would be compliant for a channel
four film advert.

2. Research for documentary advert
(similar documentary advert)
In order to get inspiration for my own
documentary poster and to help decided what
type of style would both make my documentary
look effective and match the content I decided to
research both the layout and style of similar
documentary adverts with the same content about
the education in schools and the effect behaviour
has on the learning. These programs included
Educating Essex, Educating Yorkshire.
5. Research for documentary advert
(channel four style guide)
When taking into consideration the content of my
documentary I decided that Channel Four would be the most
suitable channel to broadcast my documentary. After deciding
to use Channel Four I then researched the style guide for
Channel Four Advertisements in order to make sure that my
advert complied with the standards of a Channel Four poster.
10. Newspaper advert (first draft)
After receiving feedback from other members of the group I
decided that I could improve my newspaper advert by
including the dates and times of the show I was advertising,
so that anybody who was interested in my documentary
would know exactly where and when to watch my
documentary.
11. Final draft pic
As a result of the feedback I included the date and time that
my documentary would be starting. I also included the
channel four logo in the bottom right of the picture so that
people would know what channel my documentary will be
aired on. Also the Channel 4 logo will give anybody reading
the advertisement an idea of what the documentary is
about, as they will be aware of Channel 4s content.
