Target Audience Profile


Typography




















On Photoshop I done some work on typography which involves words with a graphical identity.

For the word 'RADIATION' I have used a fuzzy-type font and I've placed three strokes of fire on the letter 'T'. These are used to enforce the word radiation.

For the word 'EMPEROR' I have used a purple colour for the font as the colour purple means royalty and wealth. I have also placed a crown image on top of the word to show how emperors are royal.

Photo Story

Wide Shot (WS) 
This shot is showing how a victim of bullying is dead. The scene is set in a high school 
as the students are wearing uniform. It also establishes the scene. The shots go back in time.

Long Shot (LS)
The long shot shows the audience how the victim of bullying proceeded to commit suicide by jumping down from the second floor to the ground floor. Time is reversed and showing 
how the victim of bullying prepared for his dreadful death.

Close-Up (CU)
The close-up displays the character's emotions. It also shows how the character is upset.

Big Close-Up (BCU)
The tears show the strong emotion and makes the audience
feel sad.

Medium Shot/Low Angle
This shot emphasises how the victim is powerless compared to the bullies. The victim is also helpless.

Over-The-Shoulder (OTS)
This shot was used to show how the bullies are superior against the victim.

Fruit Bowl


The theme for my fruit bowl is 'fruity'. I have used a range of colours to present the idea of fresh-looking and sweet fruit. 

In have selcted a bright orange, bright yellow, bright green, dark purple and a dull purple for my colour palette for the fruit. I used a range of colours to show contrast. The background is a peachy colour (as that is an attractive colour) and the yellow is also used in the background to represent light. Then for the table colour I decided to use a light brown as this colour compliments to pink/red fruit bowl.

Analysis of video game


Language -
The cover of the game presents a few football players, so this suggests that this game is aimed at people who are competitive and have a strong passion for football. The developer of the game 'EA Sports' is on all of the copies of the game. The advert also shows how all the different platforms are printed on the front covers of the game; this emphasises how the game is aimed at a wide audience who use a different range of platforms. 

Institution  - 
The developer of this game: EA Canada
The publisher: Electronic Arts
The game is available on multiple platforms such as: Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360, PlayStation 2&3, PlayStation Portable, PlayStation Vita, Wii, Wii U, iOS and Windows Phone 8.

Audience - 
In my opinion, I think that this game is mainly targeted at males (aged 9 - 25) with 80% boys and 20% girls. 

Representation - 
The background image is a stadium filled with loads of people (football fans), so this implies that the game is set in a stadium. In general, football matches are set in stadiums.
