Evaluation Part I: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

I decided to tackle this by doing a radio-style interview with my dad, in which he interviews me pretending that I am a successful short film director.

Teaser Poster Analysis...



Examples of Teaser Posters

The point of a teaser poster, similar to teaser trailers is that they release very early and give a very very small segment of the film away. For example, many of The Dark Knight's posters included simplified pictures of the Joker. Simialrly for "Wreck-it Ralf" The teaser poster consisted of -quality video game picture.. giving very little away. Teaser posters often feature a caption or simply the release date. For example. Toy Story 3, had a simple "3" in Toy Story's iconic font. With the phrase "No toy gets left behind."

Poster Re-Design After Audiencve Feedback

I was given some constructive criticism regarding my poster from a few of my peers. One said ...
 
" I would change 'Jack.' from red to black." &
"Be careful though, as you've contrasted Jack's legs and they've come out very black, as intended I assume, when you re-colour the red to black you might want to consider making the sections on black, white, or go with a completely different font."
 
 
As can be seen I overlayed the font in black to create a 3D look, making it easier to read.
