Final Video

Changes

  • Video
We reshot the video so that we could see the video in a better quality as the quality of the video before was very poor. We later realized that this was due to the way in which we had imported it. To make this better we reimported the video directly on to the computer rather than from a USB.

  • Lighting
The lighting in our video before was quite poor, to maximize lighting I suggested we use an Over Head Projector as the lamps are very bright. This enhanced the quality of our video as well as make it much better to work with.

  • Band
Due to issues within the original band, we had to change them as it was proving very difficult to get times and dates of when they could meet up together, leaving us little time to work. However the lead singer "Jasmin" we kept the same otherwise it would of been too much work for us to change everything, including the Digipaks and advert.

Video Feedback

We showed the first draft of the video to the rest of our class to get feedback about what could be improved. These were the criticisms:
  • The ipod at the beginning; the seconds is 14 seconds into the song and the '_01_' is distracting.
  • The last verse with the '10p machine' is too calm compared to the fast pace of music; either replace or get rid of.

  • There's a verse where she is in pink and the lip-synching is slightly off, also this shot is too long as the viewer would get board or distracted quite easily.

Changes based on Feedback


Magazine Advert Feedback

We presented our digipaks and magazine adverts to the class from which we were able to get some constructive criticism to better our project, these are as follows:

Digipak Back Cover
  • The spine needs to be fixed for example the font, size and should be facing inwards
  • Extra digipak features should be included on the back cover
  • The artist name and title looks fake and stuck on and should be blended in more
  • Barcode should be in the corner
Digipak Inside Panel 2

  • The band image needs to be changed as the band has now changed
Magazine Advert

  • Get rid of the random white dangling from arm
  • Change font on the bottom to Arial ( so that it is Simple)
  • Make date smaller 
  • Don't put a pink outline on date
  • Make the artists stand out more

Magazine Advert Draft


This is our draft advert, we have put the same image and title of the album on the front this is because if people see the advert then they will be able to recognize the advert on the digipak, in turn making the end user buy the product.

according to our feedback, we need to make the image much bigger to fill the spaces as it look quite plain. We also need to include some small texts of websites and possible concert dates etc to make it much more believable.
