Digi-Paks

Below is a few examples of digi-paks.

I like the insert for this digi-pak with the collage of photo's. I like that the same font type has been used throughout as this keeps it consistent. The album cover is fairly plain but with a simple idea it shows the audience exactly what they're getting.

I like the back cover for this example as i like the idea that the colour is black but that Rihanna's outfit is white. It stands out and immediately draws the attention of the audience to the artists. I like that the letter 'R' has been used and i like that it has a razor sharp feel to it as this keeps in with the fierce theme that Rihanna is trying to create.

My favourite part of this digi-pak is the CD as i like the colours that have been used. They are bold and bright. The CD , font of the title and the outfit all seem to have swirls within them.

This is my favourite digi-pak from the examples. The images are all really clear and clean cut and are really bright. The title of the album is bi-on-ic and the images that have been used are half robot and half human, i think this is a really creative idea and i think the designer has done well to take the title and use their imagination to link the idea. The lips on the CD have a really striking and bold red which stands out. If for example you had CD's in a CD wallet and you were flicking through not sure what to listen to, you would probably go for this one as it would jump out at you for the image.

Filming

So basically my friends boyfriend who was going to be the other main character in my music video decided at the last minute, let's make that second that he didn't want to be in the video anymore. I thought i would manage to either talk him round or get someone else to be the lead male character. However my plan a didn't work and my friend didn't want to film with someone who wasn't her 'real' boyfriend and i couldn't even find a guy who would be in it. After a lot of thinking i have decided that my video will have a home made style about it and i will try and make it look like parts of it are being filmed by the boyfriend. I do still have a small amount of footage which he was in before he opted out.

Filming

Filming seems to be running along nicely, had a few hiccups along the way such as the main actor being ill and not wanting to film on a few organised dates. However in my research and planning i thought there would be things that would slow the filming process down so i have made room for this within my action plan. Everything seems to be on track.

magazine advert feedback

So i asked a few people to look at my magazine advert today and give me some feedback, both good and bad points. Everyone said that they liked the image i used but thought that maybe i should include a star rating to grab the audience's attention even more. Some said to experiment with the layout of the font and the colours. I also personally want to add something else in my final one.

magazine advert

below is the first idea for my music magazine advert. i have used an image i took while shooting for the footage of my video and i have used the same font in bright and bold colours to grab the audience's attention. also i haven't written too much so it doesn't cover the image.
