MAGAZINE COVER!

This is our official magazine cover that we designed.

DIGI-PACK AND MAGAZINE POSTER INSPIRATIONS

Here are a few examples of previous album and magazine covers that inspired us when putting together our digi-pack and magazine cover.

Music Posters

Here are examples of music posters.My group and i will be creating a magazine advert to promote our Digi-Pak.We would want to keep that dark,edgy tone we had in our music video by using costume, make up and lighting. The music posters above shows that the background is just as important as the foreground. Everything has to be well thought out, nothing can be randomly placed as the whole mise-en scene reflects the artist.

.Questionnaire and Bar graphs showing results from Questionnaire.

This is the Questionnaire I created as part of our audience research. Before we created our music video, we wanted to have a clearer idea of what people liked and disliked. Also, what was important to them within a music video and the things that were not really seen as relevant.

After conducting the research, we had a better insight into what an audience wanted from a music video.

We used the results to ensure we tried to incorporate all of these aspects into our creation.

Cd covers

These are examples of different album covers. The first two which are quite conventional have the artist's name and the name of the single/album. The fonts are often written in bold across the cover or right at the top so that people will notice it. At times the fonts can be quite fancy or relate to the song. The last cover is quite unconventional and has the font surrounding the artist.The cover is quite colourful and looks more like a book or a diary, almost as if the artist wrote it herself, i believe this creates more of a personal feeling.

Be Afraid,Be Very Afraid!

The kind of reaction we wanted from our audience was for them to be almost at the edge of their seats by the time our video came to an end. It is very much like a thriller music video with a sexy twist! With the various effects, camera angles and lighting it really adds a scary element to it. Along with the fantastic and very convincing costumes, dont be surprised if you find yourself hiding between your fingers ! My group andI also wanted the audience to feel as though they were in the mental institution with the character to almost at times have sympathy for her as the music video progresses. The use of extreme and medium close ups involves the audience and i believe it becomes more than just a crazy girl losing her mind, it becomes more personal and intimate.
