Outbreak Magazine Front Cover

We used all the features of magazine covers to create this that we learnt from my AS blog . We used:

• A Masthead
• A barcode
• Headings etc.

Outbreak 2012 Film Poster

After the conduction of our film poster research we created this poster which includes all the features of horror posters, including a title, strapline, release date, production companies and actors, actrsses and directors/producers.

We used a dark colour scheme to represent horror and only the title and straplline were in a bright colour, red (which also has connotations of horror and blood) to make the audience remember them the most so they remember the  name of the movie, the mostr important thing and the straplin which gives the audience an insight into what the films about

PLANNING: Inital Ideas

This is some creepy music that I thought would go well with the theme and atmosphere is our trailer.

FILMING: Getting started

Today we tested and tired out the new equipment  the school has provided for us. For our trailers we are using big and better technology than any other year before and so we will have the best coursework of any year before.

PLANNING: Target Market

To give more of an insight into my target market I have created an pice of what our target markets interests are:

Demographics and Pyshographics

My target market will be the mass market of working class urban males and females aged 15-20, that enjoy watching films, especially horror films and love the thrill of horror films. This is because I believe their is a gap in the market for London/UK based youth horror films and if marketed and put together well could be extremely successful.My film poster will most likely more marketed and placed in popular urban areas where people of this age would be like:

- A Bus Stop In Camden Town

- A Billboard in Angel Islington, this aswell as Camden are filled with young people shopping during the day and partying during the night and will be perfect places to market my film.

- On the 29 as this bus travels to Wood Green, Finsbury Park, Camden Town which are urban areas populated with thousands of people of my target market. It also goes to Trafalgar Square which is a consumer filed area in central London.

Uses and Gratifications

The uses and gratifications of my trailer would be to escape from the troubles and the world of reality and watch something entertains our audience. Another use and gratification would be to identify with the characters and  or even t be able to socialise with friends and talk about the movie and how it was.

The use and gratification ofthe trailer itself is for surveillence an to be informed.

PLANNING: Certificate

The British Board of Film Classification is the organisation that gives all films, videos, DVDs and video games in th UK there age certificate in the UK.

As our film is targeted at an adolescent, young adult audience the certifate for our film will be 15.

This means no one under the age of 15 can legally watch this movie as it will contain some/all of these below:

• Adult themes
• Hard drugs
• Strong language
• Moderate violence
• Mild non-detailed sexual activity

Our film will contain all of the above

PLANNING: Adobe After Effects

In class we experimented with a program called Adobe After Effects. With this program we used different fonts, effects and layouts we could use for any writing that we will use in our trailer.

This program will give us a chance to be able to play the writing as film and add it to our trailer easily.
