The document discusses the conventions of real media products like film trailers, posters, and magazine covers and how the student's media products both followed and challenged these conventions.
For the horror film teaser trailer, the student followed conventions like short length (1 minute) and incorporating a mix of slow shots and faster, more intense shots that build tension. However, the student challenged conventions by only using music from a Christmas carol rather than additional diegetic sounds.
For the film poster, conventions like placement of title, cast, and tagline were followed, but using a graphic bloody image of a household figure challenged expectations for posters aimed at general audiences.

This poster for the short film "Done in" uses contrasting colors and a bleed image to convey meaning and draw the audience in. The protagonist is depicted in black and white against a warm golden background, implying he has been "hard done by" and hurt by past events represented by the golden glow. Reviews and a brief synopsis are featured to promote the film, especially important for small independent films.

For her movie poster, she followed conventions used in the 2009 film "The Box" by using lighting to depict the victim and antagonist. Her magazine cover mimicked the font, color scheme, and mid-shot style of an existing fashion magazine.
Her movie trailer incorporated elements commonly found in action thriller trailers like title cards, a green band for ratings, and quick cuts between scenes to build confusion and excitement.

The goal was to create authentic-looking promotional materials rather than reinvent conventions.

Our media product uses conventions of real movie magazines, posters, and trailers by emulating the designs of "Empire" magazine, "Burlesque" movie poster, and the "Mean Girls" movie trailer. We developed these conventions by featuring a main character on the magazine cover and poster to attract attention, and by including snippets of footage and multiple characters in the teaser trailer. The media product challenges some conventions by presenting the main character and her values in stereotypical but unconventional ways, and using different styling and special effects to appeal to younger audiences.
