Ancillary Product Conventions

Currently we are developing further ideas upon what kind of shots we could include within our trailer. However, we are also preparing ourselves to consider the ancillary products (magazine cover and poster for our film) to go alongside our teaser trailer.

MAGAZINE COVER:
POSTER:

Recognising how stereotypical film posters and magazine covers are presented will contribute towards my research and understanding of the ancillary products, on top of influencing decisions upon how my group will inflict these conventions upon our own products.
