Research and planning: Film poster draft 1

This is my first film poster draft.

Research and planning: costume and props list for film poster

I don't need any costume for my Poster however I will need 

• Dark makeup to create bruises 
• Fake blood 

I will only need one prop for my Poster this will be:

• Ace of spades playing cards

This is because the card is the symbol of trailer. It has all the hidden meanings of our trailer, this means that it should be shown in all my tasks. 

research and planning: costume and props list for magazine

Costume:

• Smart black pants for both detective and murderer 
• Dark coat for murderer 
• Casual top for detective 

Props List: 

• Ace playing card

I don't need many props or costume for my magazine as I am trying to get a simple and clean image with nothing else to concentrate on. 

Research and planning: Animatic storyboard

I had trouble trying to upload the animatic storyboard to my blogger however my team member managed to get it on his blog so here is the link it it.

This is a very short version and many adjustments are likely to be made however this is our ideas so far.

Research and planning: Film magazine analysis 2

I will analyse this magazine for its effectiveness: 

First the effective parts:

• Th titles and pictures match so you can clearly see the headlines and exactly what there intentions are. The selection is also good as they are a range of shot types.

• The main story clearly shown as the title of the film is the main feature of the page in large bold writing. 

• There is a very good use of colour as not too much of any colour is used and the distribution of them is fair which adds a great effect to the overall business of this magazine. 

Now the ineffective parts: 

• There are too many pictures for a front cover and not enough headlines to explain what will be included in the magazine, this is a poor use of space. 

• There is more than one font used this means there is less fluidity in  the magazine. 

• The very top part of the magazine looks odd and out of place to the rest, this also damages the fluidity of the magazine.
