Photoshop
I used Adobe Photoshop CS6 to create both of my ancillary task’s. the use of Photoshop allowed me to create a product that felt and looked as if it was published from a high end institution. Photoshop allows for a far more professional aesthetic as apposed to a limited unappealing poster that cannot attract audience members.
Photoshop also, allows users to manipulate and redesign images so that they can be used to create an original visually appealing image.

My Film Review
The first of my Ancillary tasks is a film review for my short film I produced called ‘The Lost Ones’ . These would usually be found within a film critic magazine or any magazines based around film. As a result I wanted to make a film review which looks as realistic as possible the reason for this is so that I could replicate real world products. I decided to use empire magazine as my template which I then used to spring board off from and create a film review which looked both similar yet unique.

Analysis Of Empire Magazine Review These are examples of typical
empire magazine reviews taken from two different magazines. The conventions of the layout can be seen; from the title fonts, Star rating positioning, colour scheme being a combination of reds, whites, oranges, and darker reds. I thought the positioning of the central image was powerful as it gave the review a more focused appeal.

My Poster The second of my ancillary tasks was a film poster that I had to create. I chose to base my imagery on old propaganda posters which I found really intriguing as it was a combination of bold colours and solid shapes. Instead of taking a central image I created one from scratch by combining several shapes together with solid colours to create something new. My poster contradicts the usual codes and conventions of a horror/thriller/romance poster as it creates its own proper gander style genre.

Analysis Of Posters I discovered that the posters used in the media for horrors and thrillers consist of dark colours; different shades of red, black and grey’s. I tried to use this information when creating my own. I also realised that the title is placed over head in bold, the certification is placed at the bottom alongside the release date.
