Ancillary Soap Magazines




The TV Easy magazines feature a lot of bright, tacky like colours. They use a large number of different colours, up to around 10 different colours. They feature one big heading which is in your face and very over the top, they seem too sum the cover star's storyline/life up. They are very dramatic and say it how it is. There are buttons on the side of the cover with an image of a character in with a brief phrase/caption of what has happened or what is happening to that character. Banners are also used at the top of the page, which is a typical feature.The cover stars themselves have very cheesy facial expressions, and look as if they're up to no good. As my magazine is going to be a parody, TV Easy is a good magazine to parody because of how tacky it already is.

The Only Way Is Essex



This trailer is something which we wish to refer to-this itself is a parody trailer, because 'anything can happen on The Only Way Is Essex'. We have took a few ideas from this trailer,for example the scene where Joey Essex is doing his hair, the girls and boys getting ready, which is meeting the conventions of this soap.

Soap Poster


This is a practice poster for my ancillary. I have used the typical conventions using e4 branding and a clear action shot.
