( Question 1 ) In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real products?

i have picked to do a horror/thriller film trailer , film poster and film magazine cover. while making them i have challenged and developed real media products.  i have looked a variety of film trailer , magazine cover and film posters that all are of the horror/ thriller genre and these have greatly influenced my work. for example below are some of examples and how i challenged them or conveyed them into my final pieces:

for my film trailer :

i have used the below examples as influence for my work























i have used the following film trailers as my influence:

The Curse of Downers Grove:  https://youtu.be/MypaSK7VNdQ

amityville - The awakening  :  https://youtu.be/pCN3Ouo-Hys

i have used particular scenes for each of these which i found would fit my film trailer. as you can see from the screen snaps below, i have conveyed these scenes in my own style in which i have also challaged them aswell in others to make m film different in comparison.


  
as you can see i have challenged the convention by using it in a different way and angle, my version is to look scary and intimidating the star model i have used is to show her being scared and intimidated.






for my magazine cover:

i have used the below examples as influence for my work

 
i had trouble with finding a horror film poster so i go ones that where sort of what i was looking for and i challenged the conventions of these by using a plainer background and simple version of the layout these ones in my opinion are took happy and bright to convey a serial killing teenager as my film does. as you can see my poster has a more psychotic look which fits with my horror / thriller genre. my used of the similar layout show how i convey the existing empire magazines layout.

my magazine cover:

for my film poster :

i have used the below examples as influence for my work

for my film poster i conveyed the themes of up close creepy images as i have seen while researching that seems to be a common thing for horror posters to do as it adds that chill down your spine while looking at it making it more temping to buy or watch in my opinion as a horror movie lover.

this is my film poster:

as you can see i have conveyed a lot of the aspects of the housebound poster below into my film poster from the fade to the placement of my image however i have challenged this star model by using a different text arrangement as you can see I've used something more like the 'single white women' poster layout with the footer text .
