Billboard analysis (Ancillary)


I produced this billboard analysis so that I could see what I wanted mine to look like and the features that it would need, from doing this I think that I can see exactly what I need to put in my billboard for my magazine.
My mains points that I need to include are-

  • Bright contrasting colours are needed for them to be able to stand out from the background of the blue sky. Also, any writing on the billboard needs to be clear and contrast the background colour. 

  • The text needs to be minimal so that drivers can read it when they're driving past without getting too distracted from trying to read too much. That is the last thing a company would want is to cause a crash because the person was trying to read their billboard.

  • A big simple image is good, it allows the audience to see exactly what is being advertised without having to think about what the billboard is trying to explain/say.

Initial Response To Chosen Brief.

I have to create 2 other pieces along side my documentary and these can be; Radio Trailer for the documentary. Double-page spread from a listings magazine focused in the documentary. Newspaper Advertisement for the documentary.

I will create a film like poster which will need to catch peoples attention and make them want to watch the documentary- I want it to be informative about what the documentary i...

Draft double page spread

After finishing this I have decided that this is the idea that I want to use, I love the theme and the images but there is a lot to change and rearrange with trying to make it look like a proper magazine double page spread. If this was going to be my final piece I know that many things would have to be change such as- The spacing within the text doesn't look profession, it looks scruffy and mismatched. I would make it all square and equal. I would do this to produce a crisp and clear line between the text and the photos.  There no page numbers which would need to be on there as it would not be a proper double page spread- This would need to be added to my final pages.  I would make sure that all of the images looked as if they go together, I may even fade them into the background.
