Our Fourth Poster

We have made some slight changes to our poster just to make it the best we can and gain the most we can out of it. After a discussion we have decided to change the font colour to red and black because it makes the title stand out a lot more and also the quote at the top the 'simply' in pink wasn't very legible for the reader

Heres the poster from the old to the new

Third Draft of our Poster

We had to re-shoot our film which meant we needed to take a new photo for our poster because the characters were wearing different clothes to the original photo.

Unfortunately I don't have the image of the poster but you can see what it would look like before being made black and white.


After a lot of anaylising this poster we came to the conclusion we should change some things to make the title stand out more and the quote and the writing on the poster.
We made a creative decision to make the top and bottom of our poster to black and white to make the bush stand out, this was also good because the bush was green and we had green filters in our film so this was synergy between the two things.

This is how the poster looks now....

Second Draft of our Magazine Article

We had to make some small changes to our magazine article because of the change in actors in the film and also because we needed to make it look more like a proper magazine and put the picture in from the new poster

Second Draft for our Poster

Due to having to re-film we also had to re-shoot for our poster again and also we now were using the director of our film Nini Hadjipateras to be the main girl and Kate to be the friend because Nini was now playing the main girl so couldn't take on the role of the film.

These were some of the shots we took for the second attempt for our poster

This photo below was the one we used for our second draft of our poster

This is our poster from these images

First Draft of our Poster

This was the first draft of our poster....

We chose to have the photo along the bottom of the poster to make sure the title stands out and the quote and characters names also are readable and stand out. 

We copied the idea of having the word 'Simple' in pink from the boy girl poster where the word 'boy' was in blue and the word 'girl' was in pink. We also did this for the quote above the title to make the 'simply' again stand out from the other words. 

Creative Decisions for Filming Classroom Scene

We needed to reshoot the classroom scene because some of the shots didnt work, the only problem was that Nini the main girl didnt have red hair anymore because she was made to dye it back brown.

This put us at a disadvantage because we hadn't finished filming which meant we had to come up with an idea as a group to make it work.
These were the possiblities that we came up with

1) We would film from the outside of the classroom and just hear the noise from the classroom so we couldnt see any of the characters, this might of made an intresting affect

2) We could use another girl who had red hair and film from behind her so we could still see the red hair.

3) We could film from Nini's point of view throughout the whole scene that way we could film it wihout her being seen.


I think the best idea would be the last option because i think it would give a unique edge to our film and i havent seen a whole scene ever filmed from one persons point of view before so this could be quite interesting.

First Draft of Magazine Article

This below was my first draft of the magazine article that i created on the programme Adobe InDesign, i combinded the style of the magazines Empire Magazine and Sight and Sound Magazine to create the layout of it which i thought worked well. We used the same colours from our poster as we did for the magazine article, this was pink and blue which represented boys and girls which was the decision we made from the poster 'It's a Boy Girl Thing' which is the poster below

This is our first draft of the magazine article

Unfortunately this is the edited version of our first draft but you can get the idea of what we were intending to do.
