Evaluation Activity 2 - How effective is the combination of your main product and your ancillary texts?

There are many ways in which my film trailer, film poster and magazine cover combine with each other and make it effective for the target market.

One way in which my 3 products are effective is the constant personalities of the characters. In all of the products the actors stick to their character's personalities and portray them whether they are in motion or still images. For example, the brown haired girl looks constantly mean throughout all of the products and this therefore makes the target audience want to find out more about her.

Another way in which the products complement each other to make them appealing to the target audience is the use of the colour pink in both the trailer and the advertising poster. This shows that the target audience for the film is females and this therefore makes the target audience connect the 2 (the trailer and the film) and will persuade them to find out more about the film. The colour is also eye-catching so that it makes the target audience look at the poster or watch the trailer.

The slogans and catch phrases that appear on the film poster and the magazine also compliment each other and appeal to the target audience because it makes them want to know what happens within the film, I made sure that I picked the right wording for each of this so that it would make the film seem exciting and get the target audience wanting to find out more. For example, "Keep your friends close, keep your enemies boyfriend closer!" and "Welcome to the new girl world!".
