Film Review FINAL





























This is the final film review. From here, compared to Progress 3, I have changed the colour of some of the sub-headings from blue to red in order to match my colour scheme as I realised the blue did not match it.

Film Review Progress 3



As I got the Journalism and updated it, I could now begin adding text to my film review. Here I added text and colour to my Film Review. I have also included the title of the film, a tagline and a PG age to add more conventions and make it more presentable to the reader.

Film Poster Progress 2



Following the design of our layout, James (who is in charge of making the film poster) has now added many of the conventions onto the film poster. He has added the masthead, tagline, date and actor names. There are still a few basic things to do such as the baseline.






































As you can see, he has followed the colour scheme well which is red, black and white - a colour scheme we agreed on from our pitch of the print products as we felt that this dark colour palette would represent the film well. Also, if you look very clearly you can see a picture of our film character - Slender Man on the lense of the camera. This idea was taken from a film poster used in both the pitch and one of my case studies - Rear Window.

Film Poster Progress 1

As James is making the Film Poster, I have not been able to provide as much up-to-date progress pictures however he has starting making the poster. Using one of the pictures from our photoshoot, James has added the image onto Adobe Photoshop and set it as the background. He has already saturated the image so it would match our monochrome colour scheme. Also, by choosing a picture of the actor with a camera it shows we have thought about iconography throughout the pieces as a picture of the photographer holding the camera is also used in my film review - this represents the importance of the camera in our film.


Changes to the Journalism

I have added changes to the Journalism Romana had produced for me as I felt it was too long to fit into the film review. So in order to fix this, I have shortened some parts, removed parts I felt were unnecessary and also double checked to correct any grammar mistakes which I found.


Journalism for Film Review

In order to progress in my Film Review, I needed Journalism which was an important part of it.
Romana was in charge of the Journalism and sent me this piece to include into my Film Review.

Film Review - Progress 2

Lately in my Film Review I have been thinking about the different conventions and implementing them into my own Film Review. Using inspiration from the film review case studies, I have began to include conventions such as the masthead, star rating, page numbers, subscriptions, issue date and other branding to make my film review look more authentic.
