How effective is the combination of
your main product and ancillary?
By Emma Williamson

Whilst creating my media products
(movie trailer, magazine front cover
and movie poster) the main form of
synergy is that I used images of the
same actors, mostly only two of
them to clearly show that all the
products are linked to the same film.

I feel that the dark colours and
theme of my main product and
ancillary tasks successfully identify
the stereotypical horror/thriller mis-
en-scene of my work.
