I decided to continue with postcard design number 3. Due to audience feedback, most students i asked said they liked the third design and it was more appropriate for the synopsis of the film.
I thought the close up of the characters face would outline to the audience the importance of one of the features of the film, for example: loneliness and unhappiness. I decided to lighten the colour on the front of the postcard, which i changed to make it look more blue, as the original photo was a warm yellow colour.
The back of the postcard has our groups logo on it, we all needed to have the same copy as it would break continuity, and conventions of the postcards.
On the back of the postcard i included some lines, which will enable me to send the postcard off and invite people to the opening of the film. I have also included a website link on the back which will direct audiences to the homepage where they can find out more about the film.
A short synopsis of the film is included on the back of the postcard which states a small detailed description of the film making the readers of the postcard want to know more about the film.

Film Review
When deciding which source i would choose to follow when creating my film review, i decided i would attempt to choose a similar review style to an industry magazine. Such as Empire, or sight and sound. When researching which one i would follow, i thought that Empire would be most appropriate due to the format and layout, the writing style, and where the images would go, However, i have tried to match up my language with the Empire magazine, although it may not be an exact match.
When starting my film review, i had a long think about what i wanted to achieve, and what i wanted to show in my film review. I decided i would brainstorm ideas as to what i wanted to include in my review, which i then lead to draw out an effective layout for my article before starting to produce my film review. I also wrote my review for Empire as if they were doing a "Short Film Special" issue of their magazine, this would ensure i would match the correct marking criteria for my Brief.
I decided i would include how the storyline in our short film, reflects how young children are often a victim of neglect by their parents, and how sometimes parents are too work orientated rather then caring for their child. I also included how the storyline drifts from one tragedy to another, with their being aspects of synchronicity in the short.
Included in the layout i included the directors name, when the film was released, the certificate, the running time, the cast, and the overall plot. This is a similar layout to which was used in Empire magazine.
I also added in a small caption over the Image, which is a small picture which was taken during the filming process, this reads "Some Shots don't take easy" which i decided i would try to add some comical aspects to this review.
