The combination of the film trailer, poster, and magazine cover effectively conveyed the intended themes of horror, comedy, and friendship between a human and zombie. The trailer established a plot about a girly zombie and her unique friendship with a human. The pink-background poster featured scarred white text to reinforce the zombie element against the girly tone. The magazine cover incorporated elements of the trailer through montage and used a purple, black, and white color palette to highlight the hybrid genres.

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts? By Noor Naoum
Introduction As a group we all created a film trailer and for the 2 other ancillaries which consisted of the film magazine cover and the film poster we worked on them individually. The trailer we created was based on a horror comedy/zombie and we created an effective plot which we believe was achieved successfully. My Poster and Magazine linked to the trailer and created an idea of a girly zombie and a unique friendship between a human and a zombie.
Themes Our themes were based around horror and friendship. We created a plot which suited the genre and was not to difficult to maintain to a successful level. The themes were compatible with the genres and still created this sense of enigma.
Film Poster For my poster I thought carefully about the placement of the texts and the font styles which match the genres. The pink background for my film poster gave a girly tone and a sense of it based on a girly lifestyle however I challenged the idea of being fully girly by almost scarring the text to reinforce the elements of zombie. In terms of the colour palette I thought the white text worked well against the pink background because it reinforced the teen girly girl.
Magazine Cover For my magazine i decided to focus more on the montage aspect because i wanted to include elements of the trailer within my magazine cover. I thought the masthead was placed correctly and the taglines were spread with a colour palette of purple, black and white. This is because what I was trying to achieve was to portray the hybridity of all 3 genres and make the most important stand out the most. My inspiration of text came from the Total Film Magazine of Charlie and the chocolate factory because it was not bombarded with taglines based on other information, they were all mostly to do with the film itself and the process of creating it.
