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

We have gone through a long year and its definitely not been easy and developing ideas has also been a very difficult thing to do. I would say that our short film has much relation to the film poster and the review page, looking at existing promotional packages this is particularly common in the film industry. The film, film poster and the review page all connect layout wise because we see that in every one of those products we put a clock in the layout. It has become sort of a logo or something viewers would remember the film by. In the film it also has a comic flow to it as it demonstrates how bored the main actor is as he keeps looking at the clock. The film poster shows a photo of the main actor looking towards the clock. The review page shows the name of the page next to the clock so it all connects together.




Our short film is definitely not the brightest around. It has a very depressive feel to it which makes it fitting that our film poster is black and white and the background of our film review is grey. has a sort of lonely, isolated feeling in the way it's very gloomy but comic at the same time. I think they are all effective together because they connect in a way the audience would notice that "this review is about this film" without seeing the text.
