WELCOME, MODERATOR

Welcome moderator! I am Bryn Williams 9156 and I worked entirely on my own.

I hope you enjoy my blog, which contains my work on my G324 Advanced Portfolio. I chose brief 10, a short film which I named GOTCHA as well as my two ancillary products, a film poster and a radio trailer. 

The research, planning and final ancillary products are in  individual 'pages' above.
My four evaluation questions are also above.

POSTER


When making the final design for my poster I opted to make a design which positioned the boy as in control. To start I chose a font which was appropriate for the film. I then decided to put an image of the three girls into the letters. The girls are all looking up (which will be where the boy is) creating a sense of distrust towards the boy.




Here I added the picture of the boy. I positioned him so it appears as if he is leaning on the word 'Gotcha'.  He is then seen as the person the girls are looking at. He is positioned with a smile to make him appear slightly smug and proud of himself which matches the character he plays in the film.

Here I changed the font of my tag line to make it more casual. I added the twitter, Facebook and Instagram symbols. Then finally made the 'Coming July 2015' match the colour of the boys tie to make it stand out.


I repositioned the social media symbols. I also added a silhouette of 2 martini glasses and a beer glass as they are used in my film. I positioned them in the open space under the tag line. This is my final poster for my short film.

CONSTRUCTION: FILMING FINAL SCENE

When viewing my original filming of this scene I noticed that the lighting was to dark so I had to refilm with better lighting

POSTER: INITIAL IDEAS

This is the original picture taken which I planned to use
At first I planned to place the main characters on a white background. However, on photoshop it was difficult to precisely isolate the characters.
