1. A2 Media Evaluation Jordan Dodsworth

3. For my film poster I have decided once again to follow conventions a lot, the reason behind this is I didn’t want it looking like anything else or looking like it was rushed. I studied film posters for a number of weeks and I found that with the majority of them they all portray the genre of the film from the off, whether it’s a horror film in which the poster will be dark and leave a lot to the imagination, or whether it is a comedy film in which the poster will be fun and bright. As my film is a horror I have followed the conventions and stuck with dark colours, not only does this connote evil and mystery but it also gives the audience an idea into what kind of horror film it is. The image is similar to the one I have on my magazine cover, the reason behind this is because the film focuses around one antagonist and but it isn’t shown much throughout the trailer so to give the audience a better idea into what to expect I decided to have this image on the poster.

8. I also used a scanner to get my drafts onto the computer, then onto my blog. I used this because it was the easiest and quickest piece of technology I could use so it made sense to use a scanner. It was effective as it took a matter of minutes to get my work uploaded onto my blog that allowed me time to concentrate on more important things.

9. For my filming I used a Cannon HD/SD Video Camera, I think this was the most important piece of technology I used as I wouldn’t have made a film trailer if I didn’t use a video camera and the one I did use was not only easy to work but it was also a good quality. It allowed me to shoot freely but also to capture the audio well.
