Ancillary Tasks

These are my nearly-finished ancillary tasks. I have chosen to make a poster and digipak.

For my poster, I chose to take a photo of our lead singer, Keira, so that the audience can associate the lead singer with the band. I focused on her and used a heart shaped sparkler to outline her face. The heart symbolises love, which is a strong narrative in our music video, and also demonstrates the importance of individuality. In the first example I didn't include "features" and my audience feedback told me that I needed to. I chose to change the colour of the font from yellow to pink as it fitted in with the colour of the HMV logo in the bottom left. As well as this it fitted in with the heart surrounding her face, representing love.

I added reviews as well as five star ratings and used the same colours throughout to keep the colour palette.

This is my digipak so far. I really like the back and front of it. The front is minimalistic while also fitting a rock narrative, with the nose piercing. The hearts on the back cover really represent the feel of the album narrative, 'Brand New Eyes' meaning starting over, like our music video is trying to represent.

The middle images (top) require a little more work as they don't really fit with the other images, however, the pictures themselves are well suited for my digipak.

I also need to add a barcode and description of production and record label to the back of the cover to fit in with codes and conventions.
