Setting up our blog...

Both Sophie and I decided before doing any research into this project that we would collaborate as a pair to create an advanced promotion package for a new film, including a trailer, a magazine cover and a poster for the film.

We thought that it would be a good idea to customise the colours and the background of our blogs so it would relate to the topic of  research, which is 'Film Noir'. So when we first had a look for some pictures for the background of the blogs, we came across an image of a camera in which relates to the traditional colour scheme of film noir that being black, white and red. The colours on the image related a lot to the subject of 'film noir' which is why we felt it would be a good idea to make some of the font black, white and red too. When we did our research on 'film noir' both past and present, many of the DVD cases that came up were mainly black, white and red. As this was recurring through our research, we thought that this was a characteristic dominant of old and modern noir,which is useful information during this process.
