Finished Print Package and Video





This is my finished Print Package, including my finished music video.
I feel that all of my print products promote the artist well, as well as link to the genre of Indie Alternative.
I also think that all of my print products link well with the music video as they all contain different sceneries from the video.
After getting feedback from target audience and friends, I have changed many things about my digipak, mainly being what I chose to put in the top right panel. I have tried to make sure that my digi-pak and advert link as much as possible to the video, while being exactly what the target audience want.

Phtoto-Shoot





Here are a few of the shots I took the other day when I had the photo shoot with Ryan.
I chose to do some close ups of Ryan so that it is clear that I'm trying to promote the singer. Promoting the artist is a common convention of a digipak and advert.
I chose to take some photos of the mask because, the masks are a big part of our music videos. This is due to the fact our video is based around superheroes and super-villains and without their masks, heroes and villains would just be ordinary people.

Second Draft of Digipak



By looking at my audience feedback the main problem is still the image in the top right panel. I have decided to use one of the images (of the mask) from my photo shoot with Ryan the other day. I have decided not to take any photos of Ryan with a microphone or guitar, as he is not seen performing with any of these appliances in our video.

First Draft of Magazine Advert




From my audience feedback I can tell that the main problem is the colour scheme. Both Will and Jack said that I need to change my colour scheme, as it's not very eye-catching. I have decided to go out and take some new images with Ryan and one of the superhero masks/costumes from our music video. That way, I may not even need to have a coloured background. I will also add a Twitter/Facebook logo for advertisement purposes. Will also mentioned about a release date, which I think will work better than 'OUT NOW'.

First Draft of Digipak and Feedback




From my audience feedback I can see that the main problem is the top, right image that needs to be changed, as my audience really didn't like it. They all said that the pink/red background didn't fit and they didn't like that. They also think that the image of Ryan looks blurry and out of place. Looking at it now, I agree with them. I'm going to change the top right image, as well as add in key conventions of a digipak, e.g. Barcode, copyright and record label.

Making my Digipak





Above is a screenshot of my progress in making my draft of my digipak. I am using photoshop to edit and input my photos (Above photo of Ryan and the forest scenery) onto my digipak.




This is my finished first attempt at my digipak (below)

Digipak - Font ideas

Here are my font ideas for my digipak and magazine advert. I will post them on Facebook and ask for my friends/peers opinions on which is their favourite.
It is clear from my audience feedback that everyone liked font 9 better than the rest, so that is the font I will be using.
