MY MAGAZINEI Think my magazine does follow

stereotypical features of a real magazine. My magazine has a bar code, issue number, date and cover lines which is commonly used on many magazines. There are some minor features which do not conform to convention such as the mast head as I have placed it in the top right hand corner rather then in the centre or left aligned. I have also used the same background in the photo as the magazine background which is not common as the most common is a white or block colour. Another common background is a background being separate then merged but I did not need to do this as the background fit perfectly.

MY POSTER

My poster does and does not conform to forms and conventions of a poster. My magazine has the film title at the top centred which is stereotypical. There is a billing block at the bottom which is again typical of a film poster with a coming soon message underneath the billing block. At the bottom right hand corner the company website is there. One of the main differences between my poster and a conventional poster is mine sticks with a black and white theme and there's not a hint of colour.

MY FILM TRAILER

My film trailer does have certain conventions a trailer does have such as a viewing certificate and warning insert. There is the company introduction such as mine being corrosive media. There is plenty of effects such as fade to black, wipes, short takes etc which is standard of a film trailer. At the end I have inserted a insert saying coming soon which again is stereotypical then I also added a short clip afterwards of a close up which is not conventional.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD5hj_VZl0g&feature=youtu.be
