1. Q2. HOW EFFECTIVE IS THE COMBINATION
OF YOUR MAIN PRODUCT AND ANCILLARY
TASKS?

2. INTRODUCTION
 I feel as though all three of my media products, my film, film
poster and magazine article relate and correctly represent my
documentary. This is important as in a professional company all
tasks would be performed by the same production company, the
aim is to publicise and promote the film and the best way to do
that is to have all products relating to encourage the audience to
watch it.

3. DOCUMENTARY
 For my documentary I researched into other documentaries
with a similar topic and analysed how they had been presented, I
based my interviews and questions around what I had watched
and this led me to filming my shots focused and mostly midshots for my interviews as that is what I most commonly saw
used in documentaries. The length of each interview varies
depending on the relevance of the information being given,
however I have tried to make sure they are not too long so that
my audience do not lose interest.

4. DOCUMENTARY
 My interviews were structured with Teachers and Students from
school with views on the topic matter. As I filmed mainly at
school the clothing of individuals is mainly smart/casual which is
commonly found in documentaries that involve the public. The
interviews contain mainly natural facial expressions and
gestures used when explaining a view. In the introduction and
conclusion I have used relevant iconography, this being my
presenter standing in front of a computer suite which will imply
the individuals behind are ‘illegally downloading’.

5. DOCUMENTARY
 Another factor is I have given both sides of the argument
throughout my documentary therefore it is not bias, which is in
the conventions of documentary. I mainly interviews individuals
that had a deep knowledge on the topic and I feel this has help
deepen the knowledge of my documentary which is the whole
point of the genre

6. FILM POSTER
 My film poster most definitely has the mise-en-scene relevant to
the documentary as it straight away identifies to the audience
an individual illegally downloading. Using an over the shoulder
shot in the poster to show what the individual is doing on the
computer. However you could argue I am stereotyping the main
culprits of illegal downloading by having a ‘young person’ in the
shot, but this can also be supported by the majority of views for
the use of illegal downloading by young people in my film. The
title promotes the film and by having my slogan as a question I
have asked throughout my interviews should make the audience
eager to know the responses I have found.

7. MAGAZINE REVIEW
 My review is an accurate reviews which is stereotypically found
in articles I know this by looking at previous A2 work and reading
film articles from the internet and magazines. The purpose of an
article is to give the audience an insight on what to expect from
the film they are possibly thinking about going to see the film
and also promoting it making them want to see it.
