Ancillary One















This was the poster we made for our soap trailer. We used the conventions we knew from our research into soap trailers, and included several things that we thought necessary. We got pictures of all the characters by doing a 'photo shoot' with the green screen. We then edited out the backgrounds of the images using photoshop, making them individual pictures of the characters with nothing else on the picture. The pictures were then ready to put into our poster and move around as we pleased. We got the E4 logo and purple tape from the E4 style guide, which is available online. We chose to use a brick-wall backdrop because of the connotations of this, such as living in suburbia, somewhere posh and up market.

One problem I have with this poster, is that the E4 brand logo and the purple sellotape is slightly pixelated around the edges. This makes it look a little less professional. There is also a lot of unused space at the top of the poster which could have been utilized better.
