4. Evaluation Task 4- How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

3. Evaluation Task 3- What have you learned from your audience feedback?

From the feedback I have received from my friends and classmates, I have discovered that they really liked the way that the products were linked by the colours and font used, particularly the continued look of black and gold colour which they felt suited the song well considering the song's title! A highlight for a lot of people seemed to the performance of the 'singer' Niya, as he really performed his lip syncing well and was a great presence in the video. While some of the lip syncing wasn't spot on in timing, they still felt that he was perfectly suited to the role and that he could pass for being the real artist. They also thought that the dancers were very skilled and that even though the majority of the video was dance, they didn't find it boring like they would have thought they would. One of the people I asked during the planning stages of this music video about what they did and didn't like in a music video said that they didn't like it when it was just dance all the way through, however at the end, she was one of the people who was very impressed by the dancing and felt that the story expressed in the dance was enough to give it more meaning. Overall, I think my video and ancillary tasks were well received and people enjoyed them.

2. Evaluation Task 2- How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?

7. Digipak Advert Task 7- Final Advert

6. Digipak Advert Task 6- Creating My Final Advert

Following the feedback I received for my mock advert, I then make the font size larger for the web address at the bottom, made the reviews in bold and changed two of the reviews to four stars. It was suggested to me that I blur the edges around the picture on the bottom right, however I chose not to as I felt it would look like it was just an image when it is actually the cover of my digipak.

5. Ancillary Task 5- Mock Digipak Covers

I used photoshop to create a copy of the front and back covers of the digipak for Groove Armada's album Black Light. The original...

 This is the American version of the back cover so it is not the same as the one I copied but the design is the same...

And my copy of the front...

And the back...

4. Ancillary Task 4- Star Image

In my media video, my dancers and singer look quite debonair and classy. I would like this to continue through the rest of my coursework in order to maintain my star's image. The hat will be my singer's distinguishable feature, like Arianna Grande's signature ponytail...

Singers like Ellie Goulding  with her Lights album, link their album cover artwork with the music video for the album's lead song.

As with the previous example, my video focusses a lot on light and darkness. Because of this, i think that it would be good to continue with this theme and have an image with darkness and light throwing interesting shadows and making it look almost 'shady'.

Star Image links the songs and their music videos to the artist, and therefore it makes sense to link things directly, like using the same font as used in the music video.

3. Ancillarly Task 3- Features of a Digipak

2. Ancillary Task 2- Fonts

Here is a selection of fonts that could be used both in my video and my digipak. I decided to put them with a black background and has gold letters. My favourite is OSLO font, which is the 7th font down, second from the bottom.
