Assignment Scenario
You have been approached by a graphic design company who liked the film making concept you used in a previous project. They want you to design 3 posters that would advertise your film-making concept to a mass audience.
Your 3 film posters must have continuity / consistency (i.e.:- if you are using logos / fonts colour schemes, etc. you must repeat these across the campaign to create a uniformed style.
You could literary choose any of the previous film making projects in either Year 1 or 2 so far. However, the purpose for these posters may differ depending on who you are targeting. For example, a set of 3 movie posters would be perfectly acceptable if you are using the zombie project / film noir / film trailer, etc.; channel information would need to integrate into a set of TV posters if you are using the Vault or Kids TV Host project.
Before you start the development of any of these poster campaigns however, you will need to conduct both primary and secondary research into the printed media genre of whichever past project you have chosen in order to define your target audience and remain faithful to the specific genre you are working within.
It is essential that you work alone for this project.
Documentation needed for this assignment includes:
* Project Development Diary (for the duration of the project)
*Completed Critical Approaches to Media Texts Workbook
* Primary Research Log
* Secondary Research Log
*Poster Campaign (3 posters)
*Audience Response PowerPoint
* Written Evaluation (1,000 words)
(This list is just a very basic overview of what needs to be submitted. See Points of View Project Task Submission List on Moodle for a more detailed
breakdown of what is required during submission. This list will also include which elements should be completed individually and / or as part of a group.)
