Drafts of Ancillary Tasks


this is the logo I have created which I plan to use within my DVD cover, my magazine cover and within my actual trailer.


this is my first draft of my DVD cover, i have used a patterned background similar to those used in exsisting products, a main image of the characters and child like fonts to show it is for children, i have also used a logo of an exsiting company that produces childrens tv dramas to show that this product is similar to those already exsisting


this is my first draft of my magazine cover, i have used a patterned background which is bright in colour as it is similar to one i have used on the DVD cover & also bright colours is what attracts the target audience. I have also used easy to read fonts so that the target audience can read them easily & also have included coverlines that would interest them

To see how my target audience responds to them I have asked on social network sites such as twitter and facebook to have a look at these drafts so I can get an appropriate response as most people from my target audience have facebook and twitter.




this is my second draft of my magazine cover, I have changed the background as the other background was too distracting, I added subheading to add more detail to my coverlines and added different fonts to make it more eye catching



this is my second draft of my dvd cover, I have added a backpage to it so I could add more details to it, like running time and other technological features, DVD extras and a blurb to get the audience interested in the DVD. I have yet to add pictures to this draft as I need to be able to photoshop my photo better than in the 1st draft. I have added stars to the front cover as this is similar to my magazine cover and the audience would be familar with this as well as the logo used throughout. I also added copyright information at the bottom and a certificate rating.


This is the 3rd draft for my magazine cover, I changed the background to a similar colour to one I used on the DVD cover as the audience would find this familar, I moved the coverlines around to fit the conventions of a magazine more and changed colours and fonts of the 'Free Gift' section so they were similar to the fonts and colours of the DVD cover and easier to read.
