filming

we managed to fit in around 20minutes of filming and finish our clips. we use a doll originating from st. Lucia which are '2 dolls in one'. We used this to create our short film based on voodoo dolls and the imagery of them when they hurt humans etc. we started to film clips of e.g shaking the doll- we would then show the next clip of this same action happening to one of the people in our group. we could've improved with the lighting and focused the camera more accurately. We have early finished the editing and the clips seem to flow nicely together and have no jitters and mistakes, we just need to improve on the quality of the actual footage itself.

Q7

Two reasons why a film company would release a video game linked to the film.

- Releasing a video game linked to a film would be mostly for advertisement, this linking to all different age ranges. the movie being directed at more children, the video game would appeal to people of a older age, or even a family audience. this increases the range of people in which the brand itself relates too.  The idea of making sure that their brand relates to all ages is so they have a bigger variety of people buying their products, watching their movies etc. families are more likely to buy both products for their kids of different ages or the same, being able to appeal to families as a whole therefore making more sales within it. a wide market is family games and entertainment and they have met this market and an individual one.

- They might also want to give a wider opportunity for people to recognize and see the brand- if people use it and it becomes a bigger, well-known element within the company, friends might recommended it to their friends or you might see it being played on you tube and other social medias, this ultimately all helping the escalate the brands advertisement.

Q8

the reader could relate to these stories as they are all about humans and their experiences, this lets people either relate or be able to show some emotion for the person, immediately grabbing their attention. the text in the front page includes a lot of dramatic language, which helps to keep the reader engaged and find more interesting things to read  and find certain topics their interested in. Particularly the articles feature a bright maroon colour, this indicates the important of the stories and catches your eye when scrolling past the page, therefore making you want to look and read it. Humans are often quite nosy and interested in what happening in other people lives, or just the news, its a human instinct to want to know whats going on around us. This news article also includes bright picture that link to the story, giving an insight to what you could read. The titles are more bold than the sub text, this- makes it clear for the audience. The page doesn't involve too much text, this is important as many people who don't enjoy reading long passages, don't feel as if they want to read something that is particularly long, so pictures will intise them in more than sub text about what its about although this is a feature under each story.
