Digipak/magazine advert feedback

Digipak
The feedback I received from my teachers on my digipak was fairly positive. The digipak overall they said was highly effective, with an excellent theme running through the whole thing. One thing they have picked out is that I have a typo on the left cover and to consider using a full stop on one of the panels. They have also said about considering changing the back cover layout. They also said that I should remove The Black Wax, change font and positioning.

Magazine Advert
The inclusion full stop on the repetition of We Are Black Wax and that I should have a look at the front of album title, taking inspiration from Santogold. I also need to create a record label logo for both and put this on.

For my digipak I recied a level 3 8/10 and for my magazine advert I received a level 3 8/10.

Music Video Version 1

Here is the first version of our music video. We took approximately 2.5/3 hours to film and around 3 hours to edit. We have kept to our storyboard reasonably well. We do have around 30+ minutes of footage to play around with for alterations for our final piece.

Filming

This evening we filmed in the field, for a draft music video. (Yes I am blogging at 02:42). We found that overall filming went well, the weather held out, fortunately and the lighting from cars worked perfectly. If we could pick out one thing that maybe went wrong it was that we maybe missed 2 shots but this is only a very minor issue. Below are a few pictures taken on my iPhone of the shoot.

Draft magazine advert

Below is the draft magazine advert, I tried to keep it simple taking inspiration from Radiohead's "In Rainbows"...

One thing I am going to take into consideration for the next time I draft is maybe using an image, and changing the font.

Digipak draft

For my draft version of the digipak, I tried to keep things very simple, taking inspiration from artists like Jamie xx and SBTRKT...

Draft Album Magazine Adverts/Posters

I have used the same images, fonts and colour schemes to create these draft posters. I feel as though this would help promote the alum better as the audience could become familiar with these motifs and recognise them as promotion of the album increases. 

Draft CD covers

I used this image I took quickly to create these draft covers, Although I have not chosen one final draft design. I have gone for a black and white filtered image of the models. I like the use of coloured text more than just plain black texts as it gives me a better colour scheme that I could use throughout my digipack.
