How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?

Ancillary Tasks


The combination of our main products and our ancillary products of the magazine front cover and film poster all follow a similar dark mysterious theme which adds to the suspense of the film and the mysterious looking characters as the audience will want to see who or what they are. As we took the scene of the scary forest from the trailer this still image from that particular scene is carried on in both ancillary tasks which gives all of the pieces of work a unified identity which viewers of the ancillary tasks and main product will be able to see the trend of all the pieces of work. 
As the trend is the same throughout the work, this will be effective for the audience as they will immediately know the product just by looking at one aspect of our work. Also the use of the mysterious character in our ancillary products leads the audience to what type of film our product is just by looking at the still images of the mysterious character, the dark distorted image of the forest and blood like title of our film which shows its effectiveness in delivering our trailers horror genre without even watching the actual media product which is the main objective of similar look to all the pieces of work as it allows the people looking at the work to be able to identify the film immediately.
