Line 1 - (Trailer - Poster) - This line is indicating the haunted male character - in both products we can see that the character is chilled, frightened and this tells the audience who has the balance of the power and that is the younger girl. In both media products to add emphasis to who has the balance of power we can see that his shirt is ripped showing clear signs of who is the dominant force.
Line 2+5 - (Trailer - Magazine/Poster) - Line 2 is the link between the Poster and the Teaser caption and this shot represents simlilar aspects to Line one where we can see that the girl ulimately is in control over the male character. Both also have aspects of low key lighting which is conventional is horror movies and although the poster doesn't look as if its dark the main body of the picture where the character is standing is and the lighting here was controlled in the same way as it was in the film caption, by using the blinds/curtains to allow x amount of light in.
Line 5 is the link between the magazine and the teaser and the key similarities here are the darkness of the costumes. The girl is clearly dressed in all black in the magazine with a black necklace, black eyeliner/makeup and black clothing emphasising the gothicness and darkness of the girl and this is the same in caption from the teaser trailer although harder to see.
Line 3 - (Trailer - Poster) - Line 3 isn't actually like the other lines where key similarities are presented, however it does show how using the title differently can still be as effective. In the poster the title is the same but instead of using text I used pink lipstick and I feel from feedback given it works well. The title is used differently in the film where I used special text effects to show off the title.
Line 4 - (Trailer - Magazine) Line 4 is of the girl and in both images she is clearly showing of her scariness, gothicness and darkness. These are 3 aspects I wanted the girl to carry and as the main villain these 3 aspects are conventional of any villain in a horror movie. Both shots are also extreme close ups and they are really good to emphasise the horror of the girl. By using an extreme close up we can see the details of her face more - the detriated eye liner and make up and devilish look about her, looking as if she wants to cause some pain and so by using these close up shots you understand more and gain more detail from the image than if she were far away in the distance looking on.
Line 6 - (Trailer - Magazine) - Line 6 comprises of the significance of the two titles being similar. You can clearly see that the font and the colour (a faded white colour) of both the "Ready Or Not" titles are the same. The importance of this is highly signficant as now the audience can relate the Magazine to the Film by just looking at the title therefore promotions are boosted. In my case this relation between the Magazine and the teaser are essentiall as the poster and magazine are fairly different to each other, especially as I decided to use different characters in the different ancillary tasks.
