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

I think that my ancillary tasks look good together because they use some of the same elements in all 3 tasks.

One of the ways we managed to tie all of our projects together was to include the logo at the start of the film and on the poster.

We also used a house style consisting of fonts colours and symbols. We used the same fonts and colours for our logo, blog, film, review and poster. This helps us with continuity between the film and the ancillary tasks.

The stars in the review are also the same as the ones on the poster.

The Poster and Review page both contain a still image that was taken from the actual film. It is of a large black clock on the wall. This clock is there for two reasons, to link the two media texts together and to represent the title “The Waiting Room”.

My poster (left) is a simple design that was inspired by another short film poster (right). We decided to use a still from the film. We used the coloured corner from the professional poster in our own poster.
