Hello Examiner

Welcome to my A2 Media Studies Blog. The below posts contain: My music promotional video, magazine advert and the album artwork (digipak). The posts below will visually show my thought processes as the product developed from the initial idea, to final products. My evaluation questions are on 4 separate pageswhich can be easily seen at the top of my Blog.

Video Brief:

To create a music video along with its ancillary products.

Finished product- Music Video

Finished product - Digipak

Finished product- MAGAZINE ADVERT

CONSTRUCTION- DISC DESIGN

This will be the background of our disc design. I created this using watercolour because the colours blend in with each other really well, but with a dry-on-dry technique, some colours stand out from other colours which I really like. This creates an 'explosion of colours' effect, which is energetic, young and optimistic, which suit the band image.

CONSTRUCTION- Tracking (Green screen)

We chose to track and insert some of our band performance footage onto a piece of footage where two friends are apparently watching our music video. This will provide an illusion that the friends are watching the video together. The phone also is related to the lyrics where it is placed 'pictures on my phone'.

CONSTRUCTION- ALBUM COVER Back Cover

Here is the back cover I designed for my project I used the watermark effect again, which I really like because it is bright and colourful, which suits the message of "Good Life". 

I also added a bar code, the producers' logos and the FBI anti-piracy logo to make the cover more realistic and professional.
