HOW EFFECTIVE IS THE COMBINATION OF YOUR

MAIN TASK AND ANCILLARY TASK?

The main task of creating the opening five minutes of a documentary was reinforced with a double page spread and a radio trailer to advertise it. I believe the three media texts worked well together in synchronisation with certain themes being consistent throughout all the media texts such as the font used.

Double Page Spread For this we looked at other D-P-S to gather a basic layout

after this we looked at popular adverts within the topic and decided to mimic the iconic iphone advert designed by Susan Alisangan . We added our individual twist of it with a silhouette of someone trying to get signal on the smartphone this again is the shared comedic attitude to our documentary. The style we choose is simple yet it is eye grabbing as especially appealing to our main target audience who have grown up around the famous Apple products. The colours within the D-P-S are strong contrasting and bold which allows the image to jump out of the page enticing readers to read on about the documentary. Two still from our documentary were also added into the D-P-S to give reader a slight preview of what is too come in the documentary.

Radio Trailer

For this our aim was to keep the text simple, as not to over complicate and to keep it easy to understand throughout the script was wrote in the same tone as the narration to integrate the two media products. Audio extracts from the documentary were placed in the radio to help promote it. The clips extracted were humorous to help grab the listener attention and to represent the atmosphere of the documentary .
