For the ending of REAPER, we needed to create an end, so that it satisfy the narrative and can conform narrative theories such as Todorov's equilibrium.
We brainstormed ideas, which we came to several options. However, we decided with the help of external opinions and feedback from are target audiences that a news headline or story will be the most effective whilst being the most professional looking solution.
The reason this solution was favoured other others was due to its practicality. For example, an alternative was having pictures of both them dead, which was had to execute and required a lot of fake blood etc. This meant that, not only would that have taken a large proportion of time, it would also be debatable whether it was worth it, considering that it was unlikely to look real.
The pictures to the left are the two pictures used for the characters mug shots to be shown on news. We cut down the picture to just be their faces, which having that low definition of picture quality had the effect of a real life new report due to the pictures they normally obtain are low resolution.
The first picture below shows the website I was able to create this template. This website was a free website that allowed to create your own breaking news and use for wherever you wish. As you can the picture I uploaded contains a lady, background and mug shots of character. However, this did not come together, I merged this onto one canvas using Adobe Photoshop.
In the bottom picture, you can see where I used Photoshop to remove backgrounds and merge the individual layers to create a news background. I then exported it as a jpeg, which then into Adobe Premier to place it at the end of REAPER, we then viewed how it would look, which we believe satisfies the narrative.
We will gain feedback from this ending and make any adjustments we agree with stated from our target audience.
