How effective is the combination of your main products and ancillary texts?


Furthermore with the costume in all 3 media products, the protagonist is wearing the crucifix chain which helps the 3 media products link together. In addition the crucifix represents religion and religion is part of the binary opposition which is science vs religion and because the binary opposition is easily recognizable, the chain will help the audience recognize the film from just chain because they are all in the three media products, and it's represents religion which is part of the binary opposition.

The teaser trailer's scenes were dark which creates a link between the magazine and film poster because the magazine front cover and the film poster has a dark background due to the use of the color black and dark grey which creates a link due to the use of the colours.

Furthermore making the font the same as well as using the same costume for all three media products and the same dark colors in all three media products makes sense because of the fact that a cultural capital in psychological thriller will know that psychological thriller movies in their media products use the same font such as Red Dragon. Red Dragon used the same font in both their trailer and the poster which also influenced my group and I do this for our media products. It also helps the audience understand that these media products are linked together and part of the promotional film packaging. If we didn't then it wouldn't make our promotional film packaging look professional due to the different fonts being used and having no sort of linkage between the media products which is why it's essential to use the font and other features to link all the media products so the audience can know that they are all part of the promotional film packaging.

The costume was the same in all three media products which creates a link between the media products and showing the audience that they are part of the same promotional film packaging. In addition it would make sense to make the model have the same costume in all three media products because people could just use the costume to identify the film.
