How effective is the combination of your main product and

ancillary texts?

• In our documentary we looked into the side of the beauty industry and what women and also men are perceived as. We wanted our product to be presented as a women of different sides fake or natural. I can compare this to other printing adverts, as I have used the same channel 4 logo, which is placed onto the centre right hand side. I have used the colour blue for our logo, which we reviewed back into the audience research to show that most of our target audience liked the colour blue so we used the blue channel 4 logo. We didn’t however use the same blocking colour for the titles, as the background of the picture did not suit the titles, so instead we used a white font and a black block colour over the font to make it stand out.

In this documentary it is more professional and more detailed with how specific the picture is presented, where it’s set and the lighting of the photo. The pictures also uses the channel 4 logo that I have used in my print advert but they have used the colour red and placed the logo on the centre right hand side of the screen. With the title of the documentary they have used white font like I have used and a blocking around the font, but they have contrasted there’s with the colour of there logo, which makes it look more ideal and professional They have also took the shot from a good angle as it shows all of the Great Wall of China, and added pictures of children on to the wall to match with the title and what the programme is about.

• In our opening titles we have used a full image of a girl applying her make up on but in fast pace motion with the music of Barbie girl playing in the background and ends with a kiss onto the screen with the titles across the girl’s lips who is kissing the screen. We used a girl to kiss the camera to show the image of beauty and feminine side of women. The font of the documentary is not simple or professional but it shows that it relates to what the documentary about and that it stylistic.

In this opening of this documentary it uses a simple white font, which shows simplicity and that it is professional. It uses a background of a baby to make the audience more interested in to the documentary and to see the world of babies and what goes on in the delivery room. They have also put the channel 4 logo on to the top left hand corner of the screen to show that this programme is representing channel 4.

In the documentaries they use cutaways to keep the viewer and the audience interested into the interview. In our documentary we used cutaways of make up and women using the make up. Using just an interview in a documentary bores the viewer and can make it less interesting but including a cutaway half way through an interview can make it more interesting to watch and understanding to the viewer of watching the documentary. In my documentary it shows different and varieties of products like maybelline, loreal, rimmel and collection 2000 to show what are the most popular products and images of men and women in different ways.

In this documentary you can see that for the cutaways they have used different sides to this documentary, like images of his past and what he was like as a kid and what he looks like now. This perceives the audience view on how they see him and what there verdict on him is. This relates to our product as its shows different products to give the audience a feedback on which product is better and what is the most popular brand of product.
