Evaluation
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
As part of my research, I looked at current film website that I thought were successful and relevant to my genre such as sex and the city 2 and Defiantly, Maybe. I also evaluated Resident Evil. From these websites I evaluated the typical conventions of a film website; this helped me when producing my own because I could compare it to real life examples. I noticed that most websites had a enter page before the home page. On the enter page the trailer was normally shown and the title of the film is established. I have decided to challenge this convention by not having my trailer on the enter page. I have done this because I want to attract my audience to my website before viewing the trailer that is shown on the website. I have stuck to a colour scheme that I feel will help portray the genre of romance. I decided this colour scheme by reviewing and evaluating current romance websites and picking out key colours that represent the genre most and connotation the theme of love. For example, I used red as part of my colour scheme, this is used in the production logo and I have used it in my poster too. Red connotes love and romance and symbolises the genre of our teaser trailer. I have also used black in my colour scheme, this relates to the dark side that is shown in the teaser trailer. It connotes all the bad things that happen to Chloe and as it’s a dark colour, this makes it easier to establish. I used my colour scheme as a background colour on my website, making a clear link to all my other tasks. The colour scheme of the website typically links to the target audience of females. It is less likely to link to males because of the colours used and the conventions of a romance genre. To create my website I used the http://www.wix.com/ this is a site that enabled me to create a website that was quick, easy and simple to use. I could have used a programme called Dreamweaver; however this would have been more complicated as I would have had to learn how to use it, limiting me on what I would be able to do. Although this is more professional software which might be creates a slightly more professional look, I decided to use wix. I felt that the website it produced was as professional as I wanted and with it being less complicated I thought it would be the best option. Through the tasks I used the same font and colours for the title. This again creates links for the audience and shows how they connect. I noticed that this was done on the current websites and film posters that I looked at. The website I have created uses the conventions of a typical website. I have used some pages which I thought were most successful when I evaluated romance websites, such as the cast and characters and the picture gallery. From looking t these websites it helped me to plan out my website and decided on things that I thought were most successful. I have also linked social networking in to my website. This creates a link so that my audience can discuss what they have seen and I can receive feedback from it. I have put links to a few social network sites at the bottom of the website and also a link to my blog. This would typically be done when professionals create websites because it helps them to receive feedback as they know a lot of people, especially there target audience, use social networking sites.
The poster I have created follows conventions of a typical romance poster. I have included the main protagonists on the poster, so the audience identify the main characters. I found that this was typically done in the posters I looked at. In my poster I placed the masthead at the bottom of the page. Most of the posters I looked at typically conveyed this as a convention of romance. At the top of my poster I have placed the names of the stars in the film. This is also a typical convention of romance posters as well as another large amount of genres too. I felt this was most effective because the actors will be what draw the audience in so by having the names at the top of the page will enable the audience to view them easily. I have included a comment from a magazine that usually reviews films. I have used ‘Empire’ because it is a well trusted magazine company and so by having a review from this company will make the audience trust that the magazine has evaluated the film well and the response is representative of the romance genre. The effectiveness of the stars gives the audience a trust. A review from a top magazine is something for the audience to go by. So a good review will make it more successful amongst the audience. As a background for the poster have used the main image of the cast. I have made the image brighter as I feel it draws the audience in to the photo more and makes it more successful. It helps to brighten up the background and brings out the writing more.
We evaluated many teaser trailers before creating ours as a group. We outlined typical conventions of a teaser trailer such as they typically last between 30 – 90 seconds long. We carried this out when we put our trailer to editing and made sure that is was in-between these times. When we evaluated current teaser trailers we typically focused on the romance genre. This was because we found it more interesting as a group and we thought it would have been easier to produce and develop our skills in, as this was a genre where we had more knowledge. We had to think about the mise en scene of the trailer in order to let it portray the genre of romance. An important part of this was the location of where we filmed. We chose to do most of the filming at Hayley’s house. We used her bedroom as Chloe’s bedroom as we thought it looked like a girly place for Chloe’s room. This was evident in the décor of the room we used and it linked well to our genre of romance as there was pink and connotations of love and romance shown in the room. We also went on to use Hayley’s bathroom as a main location for filming. This is because we didn’t want to use another house and make it obvious that it wasn’t the bathroom that linked to the bedroom we had already chosen. The bathroom was also simple with colours used that weren’t to bright to distract the viewer from the main character. It also had the right storage that we were looking for to hold the drugs, in a place that could be easily accessed by Chloe. Another location we used was the pocket park at greens Norton. This was a natural place for walkers and so it wouldn’t look out of place to see our couple walking along there. We let our characters wear there own clothes as costume. We did this because we wanted the actors to look natural and feel relaxed. We felt that by doing this it would create a real life situation and the audience would be able to relate to them on a level, whereas if we had dressed them up, they might have looked out of place and would not have had as much of a connection with the target audience. We mainly used natural lighting within our filming. This worked well as it didn’t make the scenes to light when we were filming but they were light enough to see. However, when it came to editing we did add in scene of white to create a flash between some scenes, especially the flashbacks. There were also many camera angles we used when we filmed our trailer, from a dolly in to a canted angle. This elaborated on our skills and also we found this to be a typical convention of romance teaser trailers. We had a background track to the trailer as we found that this was most common when we evaluated current ones. We selected a few songs that we thought would fit in well with the genre and then asked our target audience to pick the best one. We selected Ellie Golding – Sweet Disposition as our track and as we had a copy available to us, we went on to email the company who owned the song to see if we could have consent to use it as our track. When we had completed filming we started to edit our trailer. We planned to use the software on the Apple Mac but because of technical difficulties we could not do this. Our only other option was to edit on windows movie maker. This is a very basic programme so we were reluctant to use it. It only allowed us to use simple edits without it looking too tacky. As this was our only option, we were forced to use it to edit. We also cut down the soundtrack to make the edits we had put in fit with the beat of the song, making it more successful.
How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
I felt that there was a successful link between the main task and the subsidiary ones. There was a consistent theme throughout that showed the link between the tasks and helped to link the whole project together. I created a strong theme between the subsidiary tasks and the main task because the subsidiary tasks are used as advertising products. One thing I made sure was an obvious theme throughout was the colour scheme. I chose to keep everything I created black, red or white. This helps my target audience to recognise a link between the products, even when they are been shown separately. I used this colour scheme for the title of the teaser, and this runs through all my tasks. I have also continued to use these colours on my website, to create a direct link in the audiences mind. I have also used the same font for the title and shown the same production logo so they all connect and create obvious links. The tasks also complement each other well as there is an obvious shot of the main protagonists on all of the tasks. Again this creates links between the project and also helps the audience remember that they are linked, meaning that they will know what the teaser is when they see it advertised as they will be able to link all three.
What have you learned from your audience feedback?
Audience feedback has been very helpful and has helped to create successful work for our trailer. We have gained audience feedback in many ways, such as a focus group, questionnaire results and feedback from peers in our class. We have taken criticisms on board and have worked to improve on ways that our target audience feel will make it better for them. Because of the feedback we were taking on it made the editing process much longer. We were suggested to change things such as the end few scenes where Chloe is using her phone along with Dan and James. Our audience thought this was confusing and didn’t understand what was happening. We therefore changed this scene and took on a bit of extra filming to ensure that the audience understood what happened. The feedback from our trailer enabled us to see what our audience thought worked well and what didn’t. The audience liked the way that we had incorporated black and white in to the trailer to help establish different moments of past and present in the trailer. They also liked that way that the soundtrack went with what we had filmed.
How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?
Throughout the process of creating my media coursework, lots of different media technology was used to ensure that I created my work to a high standard. The main equipment I used was a JVC video camera, a computer, and a digital camera; this helped me to produce the basics for my teaser trailer, poster and website.
For my construction, research, planning and evaluation I stored all my work on blogger. To access this I needed Internet access so I was able to do this at home and school. This made it easy for me to write about my work when I needed too.

The main equipment I used was a JVC video camera, a computer, and a digital camera; this helped me to produce the basics for my teaser trailer, poster and website.
The main production of the teaser trailer consisted of me using a JVC video recorded camera. This allowed me to get footage for my trailer that was at a high standard. I also used a tripod for many shots so the camera was steady and didn’t leave our footage with shaky filming. For the editing process I used ‘Windows Movie Maker’. I found this software easy to use and simple to understand. To start with I put my clips in to order and then I cut them down to the right lengths before adding editing effects and transitions between the scenes. Although the editing programme was suitable to use for my teaser trailer, I thought it didn’t give enough variety of transitions and editing effects as I would have liked. This limited the choice for my teaser trailer.
To create my poster and images for my website, I used a Sony Cyber shot Compact camera and a ‘Nikon D3100’. With this I captured my characters in successful images that I would be able to use. I used ‘Windows photo editor’ to edit my images. They didn’t need much work doing to them but this software allowed me to change the brightness and contrast to make my images better.
To create my website I used an online site called http://www.wix.com/. This was very easy to use but still created a professional affect that I needed. I uploaded images on to my website from my computer. The only problem I found with his is that it placed your image inside a white box that you couldn’t get rid of. Because of this I had to delete a few images of the cast that I had on the main page because they didn’t look professional with a white box around them. I also uploaded my teaser trailer through YouTube and Music off my computer. This gave me a successful website.

For the planning and research I used a search engine called ‘Google’. This helped me to find information about current teaser trailers that were from the romance genre. I also used ‘Google images’ for research on current movie posters. YouTube also helped with my planning and research because I was able to view current teaser trailers and analyse them, giving me and idea of what I would need to include and exclude in my own. Once I had carried out this research I uploaded it all on to my online blog. As part of the planning I created a story board. I drew it out and once complete I used a scanner to put the image on my computer and from there my blog. This allowed me to know what needed to be filmed. To help with this I also created a shooting schedule on Microsoft Word. I added dates that I was available for filming as well as my actors and decided what would be filmed on what day. This also made the process a lot easier because I knew what was happening. I also used a camera to capture images of my location that I would need for filming.
For my construction, research, planning and evaluation I stored all my work on blogger. To access this I needed Internet access so I was able to do this at home and school. This made it easy for me to write about my work when I needed too.

I have completed my website, after referring to my target audience. I have made some improvements on it, i got these improvements from feedback from members of my target audience. I am now pleased with my website and feel it is ready for publishing. Here is the link for my website. www.wix.com/JessicaBurnett/A2media
Website
These are some screen prints of my website. I have continued to ask my target audience how it appeals to them through out making it so its suitable for my audience. I still have a few changed to make before the website is complete.
Final Teaser Trailer
We created a youtube account so that we could upload our teaser trailer and get more audience feedback. As the trailer is on youtube we shall be able to upload it to our website and blog. Youtube is a very well known popular video sites and that's why we have chosen to upload our teaser trailer to it rather than another site. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3x_xxNJ6Bs This is the link for the teaser trailer.
Feedback From other groups
We showed our teaser trailer to our class to ee what they suggested we could improve on and find out what was good about it. We found out that the good things about our trailer were:
- The clip, text, clip, text structure
- The music connects to the narrative of the trailer
- The music beat fits in time with the edits
- Variety of shot lengths used
We also discussed point to improve on and found out that we need to:
- Make the ending shot longer
- Change the text font and colour to a more simple option
- Add a close up of Chloes face when she is using her phone
- Fade the end shot out.

Representation In Our Teaser Trailer
Throughtout our trailer we show many representations. The first of these is Gender. This is represented in a stereotypical way of how males and females are already precieved in society. We see Chloe, our main protagonist, as a vunerable woman who cant handle the situation she is in. In the romance genre it is typical to show a woman who needs help and that is weak so that a leading male can save her. We have portayed this in our trailer through the use of the mobile phone. When Chloe is in the bathroom she uses her mobile phone hinting that she needs to be saved. To relate to our target audience more we have also portrayed Chloe in a way that will relate to out target audience. As we are aiming the trailer at girls they will be able to connect if they are experiencing problems of theire own. We also show teenage life in our teaser trailer. This is shown through the emotions portrayed, and what has caused them to feel this way. Our target audience shall relate more to it because of this as they will have experienced some of those problems.

Editing Questionnaire Evaluation
We decided to evaluate the questionnaire that we received back for our rough cut copy. This will hep to make improvements to our trailer. The focus group consisted of 10 people within our target audience. This as useful because we would know what our target audience wanted to improve our teaser trailer.
Question 1: All results suggested our trailer was of the Romance genre which is positive as it shows we have stuck to conventions of a typical romance trailer to make it recognisable.
Question2: 7 out of out focus group chose that there was the right amount of clips in our teaser trailer suggesting that it didn't give away too much. 2 people suggested that was too many and 1 chose that there wasn't enough. We will take these thoughts in to consideration when we come to our final edits.
Question3: In response to the focus group analysis we have decided to take out the scene of Chloe sat at the table, as it creates confusion and doesn't seem relevant
Question4: An improvement suggested was that we need more happy scenes in the trailer. With this taken in to account we may have to shoot more footage to add in to the trailer.
Question5: A large majority of our focus group agreed that we used the right type of lighting to reflect the feelings and emotions.
Question6: 8 out of the 10 we asked said that they wanted to watch our film after seeing the trailer.This shows that we are doing to right thing with our trailer and it just needs a bit of improving.
Question7: Some of the advice from our feedback suggest that we need a more powerful cliffhanger at the end to keep the audience enticed.
Question8: The least favorite scene was the phone scene.This created confusion amongst our audience and so to improve this we have decided to re film.
Question9: It was agreed that we had used a large variety of camera shots and angles to portray emotions and feelings.
Question10: Over half the focus group agreed that they could relate to the main protagonist.
Question11: Out of the ratings of 1-5(5highest,1 lowest) we received 4 people gave it a 3, 4 people gave it a 4, and 2 gave it a 5. We didn't get any low marks suggesting are trailer is on the right tracks.

Feedback from other groups
Unfortunately i cant upload the version of our trailer or any clips because the files are too big. However, we showed the other groups our work and they evaluate and gave us targets to improve on.
Shooting Schedule
This is the shooting Schedule that our group has agreed on for filming. From this we can recognise the props that we need for filming as well as the actors for each day and the location we will be shooting at. A copy of the schedule has been sent to our actors so they are aware of the days we shall need them. We have also decided to complete filming in three days so we have time to re-film if we need to and then we can start editing as soon as possible.Two Step Flow
"The two step flow of communication model hypothesizes the ideas flow from mass media to opinion leaders and from them to wider population. The term personal influence came to illustrate the process intervening between the media direct message and the audiences reaction to that message."
Hypodermic Syringe Theory
"The hypodermic syringe theory is a theory of media effect on audience. The term is used to describe interaction between the media and public belief, and offering the concept of people becoming affected by the information "injected" in to them through their information medium. The model tends to see contemporary society."

Social Networking Sites - Influencing Films
As part of my research i have looked in to how social networking sites may become useful advertising tools for films and production companies. Sites such as Facebook have advertisement banners down the side of the page that usually contain moving images to catch the audiences attention. These advertisements are usually suited to the type of audience using the computer. Due to the eye catching movement, this attracts a large audience and gives the audience a introduction to the advertisement so a sense of recognition can be created when the audience returns to the site. Advertising on social networking sites is very expensive due to the competition from different advertising companies. This means that it is highly unlikely that we shall use the method of social networking sites to advertise our film. However, social networking sites also use another method to create advertising links. Most film websites have a link to websites such as Facebook, which the audience can join and post comments and feedback, giving them the chance to interact with the film. I have therefore ensured that i have created a link to Facebook to help expand the advertisement of the film.

Location
This is the setting we are using to film the bathroom shots. The first photo shows a different lighting to the second so we know how they will look when we are filming. The Bathroom looks feminine making it realistic to be the bathroom for the main character. As most of the teaser trailer will be sot in the bathroom is it important that we have picked the right setting.
This location again links to our main protagonist, as the room is realistic and girly. This will be Chloes room. The pink shown in the shots relates to the genre of romance as well as other props that are shown in the shot.
