My media product, being a comedy film trailer I believe heavily uses the forms and conventions of real media, a majority of comedy films are male dominated not just by cast but by audience, with exceptions to films such as "Bridesmaids" (2011) or "Juno" (2007) the most current comedies are more male focused. Some of these films being, "The Inbetweeners Movie" (2011) and "The Hangover" (2009) and "The Hangover Part II (2011) being a prime exapmle for the popular demand after its previous releases success.
My trailer uses this genre and comedic approach also, thus more using the conventions rather than challenging them.

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
I think very effective, what I learnt from my ancillary texts contributed to the base of my final product. I was able to gain constructive criticism, develop tired ideas into new ones and learn how to use what I could to make the best product possible. Skills learnt via my ancillary texts all benefited into making my main product.
Audience feedback definitely contributed heavily to the editing of my final cut trailer, in aspects including the volume of the dialogue, how fast paced it's edited, including different angles and choice of soundtrack.
How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?
To film my trailer I used a canon video camera
For steady cam shots I used a tripod
iMovie & Final Cut Pro via Laptop & iPad.
