The Media Briefs (Part II)

Task 2 : A promotion package for a new film, to include a trailer, together with two of the following three options.

  • A website homepage for the film
  • A film magazine front cover, featuring the film;
  • A poster for the film.
I found this task interesting because I felt that there some amazing examples that we could follow in terms of the task, making reference to both my inspirational film trailer designs as well as stuff that is easily presentable and made by us as a group.

I mainly like the transitions from this trailer and though the CGI is blatantly a mile off unachievable without twelve more hours of work per minute I still think that the positioning of each scene in this trailer to create awe and interest is exceedingly useful for if we were to pursue this task.

The poster, once again a CGI influenced poster, is quite obvious in it's presentation that it will be an apocolyptic, sci-fi, and action movie. I like the fact that the poster presents the main elements of the film very central and that the genre of the film is so noticeable and may even become interesting to people who are not fans of the genre because of the way the poster is designed. 





Closer to home though I think there are some obvious film trailers that we would be able to develop for it, other trailers are very easy to produce such as the trailer for Divergent. This is because apart from large scale actor scenes, there is only two person shots, mostly close ups, that are the main focus of trailer.

This is handy because it shows the film very well through the actors and the audience can get a feel for the actors.
