2. Draft 1.
From my feedback I got quite a good response for this draft. It has
been said to be quite simplistic, but also effective. The majority of
responses I got back said that they thought by having not too
much on the page it makes it much more bold. It would make the
image stand out a lot more and really catch your attention. They
said I could make the image even bigger, as they thought this is
what would catch their attention most, and it is the image which
gives you the idea of the album.
3. Draft 2.
This is another draft which I got a good response too. Everyone
liked the size of the image as they thought this would
automatically catch you attention and make you want to read the
advert. They said it was simple which they liked, there wont be
too much on the page to distract you. It gets straight to the point.
Many people had the criticism of the masthead not looking quite
right in the middle of the page. They said it is quite a big part of
the advert and it gets slightly lost in the centre of the advert. They
feel as if it should be at the top of the page to make more of a
statement.
4. Draft 3.
I think this was the least favourite draft. Everyone said it
looked very boring, and nothing jumped out at them. They
liked the size of the image, however, they didn’t like the way
in which you would lose some of the image by the box with
all the information. They felt as if nothing would really stand
out, and information etc. would get lost.
5. Draft 4.
A lot of people from my feedback liked the tree images at the top of
the page. They thought it was a good idea to have more than just one
image of the artist, as you get to see more about them. One person
also suggested having a collage of images of the artist on the advert.
Everyone liked the boldness of the masthead, and it was a good way to
catch a persons attention. However, many people said the sizing of the
information wasn’t right. They felt the images and masthead should be
larger as this is what you would be more interested in straight away.
6. My chosen draft.
In my opinion I think my first draft was my best, and I feel from my feedback others thought this too. I
think I may have been trying too hard with the other drafts, as I want something simple but effective and
this is exactly what my first draft is. I would like to increase the size of the image to make it that bit bolder.
While also having a dark coloured background, to fit in with the whole mood of the song etc. I would like
to make the information short and snappy. Something which someone can just skim over and get all the
information they need. I think this would be the perfect design for my advert.
