Throughout the course of this media project I will be creating a Digipack which will let show the intertextuality of media. I am going to create a movie trailer Digipack which will include; a poster, a DVD cover and a movie trailer. the poster and the DVD cover will link in with the theme throughout the course of the project to show the intertextuality of the products and show how closely they link together. I am still not sure on what to do in terms of what movie to create. All I know is that I have got a broad idea of what kind of theme that I want and also the setting. This leaves me with a broad spectrum which I want to try and narrow quickly. I am interested in horror and thriller type movies and this is what I want to base my movie trailer on. In the next three to four weeks I am going to be narrowing my ideas and I will do this through my research and planning of the products that are already available and take my interest.
At the moment I am going to be looking at products that I find interesting and linked to the genre I am thinking of creating. This includes;
Thriller movies such as; Godfather, Dark Knight, Jaws, Sin city, Shifty and many more.
Horror trailer such as; Prom Night, Night mare on elm street, Saw, Scream and Halloween
I will be looking at many films from different century's which will allow me to look at how the technology has improved over the years but also what has stayed the same. This will help me figure out the trends that have stayed the same.
With me researching only two genres I am finding it easier to know how to layout my research and what I am going base my research around. I am going to research lots of movie trailers, posters, merchandise and DVD cover. This will mean that I will be doing many Digipacks that contain this information from the same movie, so that I know what they keep the same so that they link in terms of the font and the background. This will allow me to see which methods are used conventionally and which are not. Hopefully this will allow me to identify the intertextuality from the movies that I will be researching. Over the course of the project I will aim to do the following in my research and planning;
3x DigiPacks
5x Poster Analysis
3x Single Covers and links with DVD covers
Video Research
A Questionnaire to identify my target audience.
