Final Supporting Pieces

After much deliberation we have produced three final supporting pieces, two being created by each individual as the third being produced as a team. From previous blogs it is seen that their were many ideas and drafts that were created in order to get the best possible effect.

The three final supporting pieces are as so:

1. The first supporting piece was created by myself and is a newspaper advert. From looking through several weekend and daily newspapers such as The Times, The Guardian and The Sun I have concluded that most adverts that are seen in newspapers are black and white and lighting plays a huge role in setting the mood of the advert... adverts promoting such products as bathrooms use bright lighting with neutral colors giving the reader a sense of positivity. Adverts shown to promote serious or solitary products such as a documentary or a new upcoming movie, use minimal colours and lighting, with harsh, bold writing. Such adverts as these send messages of seriousness and interest to the reader. This was the effect I wanted to create for my advert, I wanted to send a message of seriousness and shock that piques the audiences interest. To create this effect I used a black background and bold white writing, this keeps the colour pallet to monotone colours and a sense of an edge is introduced to the documentary. The image to the left hand side of the ad is of a young girl looking somber, the photo uses minimal lighting which again adds to theme of the advert.
2. The second supporting piece was Charlie's individual work which was a magazine article which shows our experiences and opinion of the documentary. this article is to help better inform the audience. There are two sets of photos, the first set are portrait photos and the second set are us working editing and directing. these will help the audience to understand the work that will go behind making of the documentary.
3. The third and final supporting piece is the groups combined piece, these are posters created to interest the audience and to inform potential new audiences. the poster will ask parents whether they are educated enough on what their children are watching.
