The document analyzes two horror movie trailers, Saw and Primal. For Saw, it discusses the stereotypical iconography used including the dark bathroom setting, torture props, and characterization of the female as the victim. It also analyzes the structure using discontinuous editing, tense sounds, and canted camera angles. For Primal, it discusses the establishing shot showing the isolated group, fast-paced music building fear, and monster sounds acting as a predator. Both trailers effectively use editing, sounds, and shots to create tension and suspense through established horror conventions.
Google, YouTube, Microsoft Office, cameras, Blogger, Final Cut Express, Adobe Photoshop, and social media were used at various stages of constructing and evaluating a horror film trailer. Google provided research on existing media products. YouTube allowed viewing of trailers to understand conventions and upload the finished trailer for feedback. Microsoft Office created questionnaires, timelines, and analyzed trailers. Cameras filmed footage and took photos. Blogger documented the process and received feedback. Final Cut Express was used to edit shots, add transitions, and include sound. Photoshop created the poster and magazine cover, adding special effects. Social media gained immediate feedback from the target audience.

The document discusses the author's media product, which is a music magazine. It summarizes how the author used conventions from real music magazines like NME, such as including a masthead, barcode, and date on the cover. However, it also challenged some conventions by leaving out a strapline or additional artist photos on the cover. The contents page followed NME's conventions of using a main image and subheadings on a colored block, and the double-page spread featured a large main image of the cover artist being interviewed. Overall, the author took inspiration from NME but kept the design simple and focused on direct connections between the reader and artists through large eye-contact photos.
