Ancillary Tasks - Poster

This was our draft for our poster, when designing it we made sure it was recognisable to our genre. For example, we used a broken down, graffitied school bus to represent the teenagers and the rebellion "culture" of the grunge audience. The overall style has been darkened but other aspects such as the sky has been lightened. This creates contrast and again has a rebellion style to it. It also makes the image look more vintage and older, something I have seen that was a common theme in my research.

Ancillary Tasks - Finished Draft

We finished our draft ancillary task, in total we had 5 images, including a poster, back page, lyrics, front page and the inside background, where the CD would go. Our research influenced the content and the style of our images, we made sure they were all similar to one another and can be connected back to the grunge genre. My research helped me to design the look of the images, for example the research I done on making an image look dirty, vintage and washed out. We made sure when designing our images that they all looked vintage and old, this is also a style we use in our video. We wanted our images to link to one another in some way as well as link back to our video. We used the same border in the four images, except for the poster. We also used the same font style and colour, this made it look effective and again something that can be recognised from the Grunge genre.
