Meeting the client brief (U3 : P5 M4 D1)

Learning Outcome : To be able to carry out post-production techniques and processes for an original media product to a client brief. Front Cover : Double page spread  : Both my front cover and double page spread are exported as JPEGs. The reason behind choosing this format is because it is has easy advantages. JPEGs allow for high quality digital photos, quick transfers and fast access for those who want to view your product.  Client brief requirements : The client brief made it explicit that my magazine promotes a new independent film from North London. I have met this requirement through the inclusion of 'Under the mistletoe.' This meets the client brief as the detailing of the movie is produced within the body copy which then promotes the movie as people will read what the film is about.  As the client brief stated my magazine should reference a current and new streaming platform. My double page spread highlights both steaming platforms. The current streaming platfor...

Learning Outcome 4 (U3) : Be able to carry out post-production techniques and processes for an original media product to a client brief. Front cover  : strengths : - The colour pallet relates to the romance genre as stereotypically when one thinks of romance they imagine pinks and reds. Throughout my magazine the colour scheme has stayed the same in order to keep the genre of the magazine at a main focus for the readers.  - Using stars, ornaments and glitter immediately links to the whole notation of Christmas. The magazine is supposed to be a Christmas edition, thus including these small additions definitely outlines the holiday feel.  - The front cover includes typical conventions of a magazine - through puffs, a barcode, a masthead and cover lines. These conventions have been used in order to initiate a professional look to the magazine, as well as grabbing the readers attention by the details within the product.  weaknesses : - As much as romance resembles pinks ...

What has been your favourite moment whilst filming 'Under the mistletoe?' It might sound like a cliché but I would say making the family that I have now made.

The amount of laughs we had during the reading will now be cemented into my mind forever.   What inspired you to go into...

Risk assessment : A risk assessment form outlines possible health and safety risks that could occur on set and are noted down so the team can avoid these issues.
