Now all of our production work was complete we then had to move on to the editing of our poster and magazine cover. This proved difficult for us as we had hundreds of photos to choose from. Through the choosing process, we wanted to create something that would stand out, but also represent what our character was about, as our character comes across as a drunken mess who is unclear in what way his life is heading. So we thought having a dark background on one side, and a light shining on the other, would represent a clear and maybe mistaken character, and how his life is slowly transforming.
With our magazine cover we wanted to create something that was eye-catching, and would intrigue the reader, we included added incentives, such as other films we had thought of, and put them on our front cover, for this we used different fonts to show how they all have their own styles and different representations. Then we thought that this would be a continuity error for our magazine and make it stand out for the wrong reasons.
Our magazine and poster is coming along nicely, we now just have to add the finishing touches, and then we will be completely finished.
Good to see you explaining the meanings and desired responses to the front cover. You could do this in more detail by annotating an image of the cover. Don't forget to explain how you have used codes and conventions of existing covers that you analysed.
