ADVERTISEMENT - USES
Channel 4 logo is
situated in a corner and it stands out.
Date, time and channel conforms to Channel 4
advertisement layouts
Use of background
space for information
Same font as used in documentary
Contrasting black and white colouring
Quote from the documentary
Image of presenter or a relevant
subject – for example, I have used myself for the image and ‘sewn’ my mouth together.
This signifies that I am
also a victim. This low angle shot also
signifies that I am looked down on by
people.
ADVERTISEMENT - CHALLENGESUsing a font
which doesn’t signify Channel
4 documentaries
Using Photoshop to obviously edit the photo. Most
Channel 4 adverts are clips from the
documentary. However, this
could also be used to develop the conventions –
more editing to ‘glamourize
documentaries’.
Using a textured
backgroundBlock logo where as it is generally just the four logo without the block
coloured background
DOUBLE-PAGE SPREAD - USES
Facts and figures for the audience to read about – related to the
subject
Quote from the
documentary
Justified text to look more professional.
Caption under title in larger
font to summarise the story on
the page
Screenshots from the
documentary
Time, date and title of
the documentar
y
DOUBLE-PAGE SPREAD - CHALLENGES Using such a large photo of the presenter
Interview with presenter is set out like it would be in a
gossip magazine
Time, date and title is
posted three times
The title of the
documentary is the title of
the page
The facts and figures aren’t in a box and
the blurred/smudg
ed edge challenges the conventions
