question 2

Print codes and conventions:
The way the dark sky is taking over the white background connotes that something bad will happen to try and out weigh the good. This shows that in the movie there will be a hero and villian so it raises actions and enigma codes.
There are also reviews done by news papers like the gardian whcih in one of them talks about the movie in contrasting ways. It starts off with 'JJ Abrams's amiable, ever so slightly disappointing mystery adventure is a weird hybrid' this creats an opportunity for the viewers to make up their own mind whcih will mean that they have to go and watch the film themselfs. The way they mentioned it was amiable shows that the movie was still good although it was lacking something. So it is portrade in negative and positive ways which could actually work to the films advantage. 

Broadcasting codes and conventions:
this promotes the new movie and it has the three main boys on it which give a little description about the movie and how much they enjoyed working on the set, they also mention that there are a couple of twists and turns in the movie. Also whats interesting is how they act towards eachother as they joke about and talk to eachother like friends not just co-workers which is good for people wtaching as they see the boys as noormal children whcih will make them more interested in seeing the movie as if they have small children themself they can identify with them.  

E-Media codes and conventions:


 This website is the official super 8 movie website. It is cleverly designed in a way that will appeal to viewers that have already seen the movie and also ones that are interested in seeing it. This allows interaction between both audiences where viewers can post reviews of the movie for the viewers that havent seen it yet. This is good as they will be able to monitor what is said about the movie which is a big problem for them on the web as they normally have no control over it. So they can make sure the movie is portrade the way they want it to be. The website also includes a teaser trailer for the viewers that havent seen the movie. This shows the movie as a very action packed, myserious adventure movie which is obviously what they want to promote the movie as.
