Evaluation of My Poster, DVD Sleeve and Magazine Cover

Evaluation on my Poster Magazine Cover and my DVD Sleeve

Production Process 


The Production Process I used was first I Researched some ideas in what my idea was going to be. First I did some research for my chosen genre I was going to base my idea on and the two I chosen was a Comedy genre or a Action genre. After this research I decided to chose an Action Genre for my idea because I thought the Comedy genre would be to difficult in creating a storyline for that certain genre that is why I chose to do an Action theme. My first idea was to do a Superhero theme such as Marvel and make something similar to the Avengers theme but I couldn't think of a story line for this and I thought that creating a Poster a DVD Sleeve and a Magazine cover for this certain film idea so I did some Research on Assassins Creed theme for my Poster, DVD Sleeve and my Magazine Cover and because I know a lot about the games I was able to come up with my own idea for my own Storyline about Assassins Creed and created my own characters for the Poster, DVD Sleeve and Magazine Cover.
When I had a good idea and Story line for my idea I stated to explore and look at different fonts  and titles and I looked at the Game covers and looked at the titles on the front of the covers and looked at the Willy Wonka DVD Sleeve and did a practice on how to change the font and make different curves on the writing using Adobe Illustrator. After I had done this I decided on using the official Assassins Creed font and I downloaded it off Da Font and put the font into Photoshop because I really like the official design instead of creating my own.
After I had came up with my idea that I was going to use for my Poster what I did was did some Research on all the Assassins Creed game covers and got some inspiration from them such as the different poses that the characters are doing in all of them and the way the characters are standing in the game covers with there Heads down so you can only just see there faces and all the backgrounds and had a look at them and came up with my own background to use and the one I used for the Poster was a dark abandoned city.
When I had my ideas for my title, background and characters  I sketched out how I would like to make my poster for inspiration for when I was going to be creating the final poster I drew the main character in the middle of the page and had the main Title underneath him and had the slogan just going above the main characters head but I altered this when I was making my final design. For my DVD Sleeve I designed that straight from the start because I already had an idea on how I was going to create the DVD Sleeve but I had a bit of inspiration from my Poster and I used the background from that into making my DVD Sleeve. For my Magazine cover I did some Research on different Magazine covers such as Total Film and Empire film magazine covers and the main inspiration for making my magazine cover was the Total Film cover and I made my Magazine cover similar to that with the big image of the main character in the middle of the page and all the text around him. I created my own title and called it just FILM to make the magazine cover stand out and make the magazine cover very eye catching.

Sources of Information 

The Sources of Information was helpful because when I was doing research it inspired me into making my Poster, Magazine Cover and a DVD Sleeve because when I was looking at all the game covers they were all inspiring me into making my DVD Sleeve, Magazine Cover and Poster. The Research inspired me when I was making my Poster because of all the different stands they have and this inspired me into doing this in my Poster. My research also inspired me when I was making my DVD Sleeve with all the different fonts that they use on the Game covers and this inspired me into having the official Assassins Creed font on my DVD Sleeve and my Poster and I also used the font for my Magazine cover as well. My research inspired me when I was making my Magazine Cover and what inspired me into making my Magazine Cover was when I was researching in different types of Magazine Covers and I found a few that inspired me into making mins similar to that one but I found one called Total Film and i really like the look of this certain Magazine Cover and made mine similar to this certain one with the big image of the main character and text around him and the title at the bottom of the page in bold. Most of the Research that I did when I was looking at Magazine Covers was on Google Images and the text I downloaded was on DA Font.

Finished Product

The finished products that I created were a Assassins Creed Movie Poster and what is on this is a dark background with the main character in the middle of the page to make him look very eye catching so then you will know who the main character is and the story of the film is based around. For my poster I added a slogan saying Last Assassin Standing this shows that he is the last Assassin standing in the film and this could show that the film will be based on the main character in the middle of the poster. Within my poster I have used the official Assassins Creed font on my poster but only on the title and used different texts for the slogan.
For my Poster what I did was similar to my poster and I made the front of my DVD Sleeve similar to the poster with the main character in the middle of the page and covering most of the page but what i did was made my text smaller and put the main title Assassins Creed The Last Descendent at the top and the slogan is on the back of the cover. What I have also done with the DVD Sleeve I made it look like a Professional DVD Sleeve with a little review on the back from the Daily Mail and the star rating that the film got. I also made the PEGI 18 rating look like it would on a Professional DVD Sleeve I also added the film company that created the film and the official DVD logo on every DVD Sleeve.
For my Magazine cover what I did was I looked at different magazine covers for a template to look at and I found a Total Film magazine cover that I found and made mine similar to that. What I did was put the main character from Assassins Creed The Last Descendent on there as the main focus for the magazine cover. I also used a dark background for my magazine cover and made my character dim into the background on one side and gradually get brighter as it goes across the magazine cover. I also added little bits of text around the main character such as Brand new Big Bang Theory Series announced and Top 10 comedy films revealed. I also added on there Exclusive interview with the actor who plays the main character in the film Assassins Creed The Last Descendent.

Effectiveness

My Poster for my film Assassins Creed The Last Descendent is effective because it is eye catching because of where it will be put around Manchester such as on Buses, Billboards and outside Cinemas people will not miss the poster and it could attract people into going to watch the film with the main character being on there in the middle of the poster covering up the page and people will get to see who it is and if they like the actor that may attract them into going to see the film. Also with the slogan Last Assassin Standing may attract people into seeing the film because it is the finale of the Assassins Creed Story.
My DVD Sleeve for the film Assassins Creed The Last Descendent is effective because if you have seen the film in the cinemas and you really like it this may attract you into buying the film on DVD when it is released. Another way it is effective is the 5 star ratings that the film has been given this can attract people into seeing the film because this shows that people think that the film is good especially if you haven't seen the film in cinemas before. Another way that my poster could be effective is that it has been created by the directors who made the Batman series and this could attract people into seeing the film because the Batman series is a very good series.
My Magazine cover is effective because it has the main character of the new film Assassins Creed The Last Descendent and this is how Magazines sell with them advertising the brand new films that are coming out. Another way it is Effective within the magazine revealing the new Big Bang Theory Series and interviews with the actor who plays the Assassin in the new Assassins Creed film and this can attract people into buying the magazine because people who like Assassins Creed or want to see the film will want to know what the film is about and there be little details in there about the film. Also people will want to know about the latest films that are coming out and people who like Big Bang Theory will want to know about when it is going to be aired on television and people will want to know the actors and what is going to happen in the series.
