Research of magazine advertisements

Second Ancillary task: research of magazine advertisements

This is one of the documentary newspaper advertisement layouts I may use because I think the Channel 4 logo at the right hand side creates impact. It creates impact for the audience because it's boldly lit up against the glowing red light. Also, this draws attention as it tells people what channel the documentary is on. I think the main image covering the whole frame works well because it makes the audience feel like their there and involved in the moment. In addition, I think having a focus point  in the photo and blurring everything else out looks good because it's intriguing and a dramatic effect for the audience. I like the title and release date because although there highlighted in a striking white bubble, it doesn't draw attention away from the focus of the image.
I do think there font could be better as it's hard to read against the compact dramatic background.




This is a documentary newspaper advertisement layout I may use because I think the colour scheme of contrasting warm and cold tones linking to the topic is effective. In addition, I love the ripped paper effect used as a border to gain focus on the image as it's relatively small covering a small part of the advertisement. I don't really like the position of the title as it's bunched together at the bottom taking away it's focus point. I do admire that the background isn't simply plain and dull but has images adding creativity and interest into advertisement. I think the film company at the top works well because it is small and minimal but can still be easily seen. Also, part of it is bold highlighting the more important part, which looks professional. 



This is a documentary newspaper advertisement I may use because I think the image being uniquely positioned at the left hand side works really well. It draws in attention as all the writing is on the right side and the imagery is on the left side, therefore concentrating attention to the bold image. In addition, I think using mini images into one main image looks professional as it's better than clustering lot's of pictures together making it look messy. I don't like the look of using lot's of text because it disinterests the reader.

Evaluation Q1

This clip from Piers Morgan: Killer Women presents its use of commentary narrative layered with tense music leading up to a dramatic moment. This highlights how the traditional use of sound in crime documentaries does slightly contrast as they lack a mixture of music and sound effects. I challenge traditional conventions of a crime documentary through my use of costume as I decided to use a light grey jumper for the prisoner costume. This differs from the usual costumes of a blue, white or orange jumpsuit commonly seen in popular documentaries e.g. Making Of A Murderer, Interview With A Serial Killer, Who Took Johnny.
