This presentation contains summaries and analyses of media created for a pop music album and single, including a magazine advert, album front and back covers, and a single cover. The magazine advert uses colors and styling from the 1980s to portray the artist. The album front cover has a plain white background to make the bright image stand out like a drawing. The back cover shows the artist laughing to convey the album's positive message. The single cover depicts slight sadness through the use of a mirror and lipstick writing, reflecting the song's lyrics and telling a story to encourage single sales.

This document provides a textual analysis of the album cover of Donell Jones' 1999 R&B album "Where I Wanna Be". The analysis discusses three key elements of the cover design: 1) the use of lighting from a cigarette that illuminates Jones and signifies his journey to a brighter place, 2) a hand providing light to Jones that represents his goal of aiding his audience, and 3) a medium camera shot that shows Jones' full body and the illuminating light. The analysis suggests the cover was designed with more meaning and effort than other enjoyed albums to represent Jones' intention to benefit listeners.
Album cover final evaluation
The document provides an evaluation of a final album cover design created for the fictional artist Andy Mallen and his album "Video Boy". The original design concept featured technology-related imagery but had to be redesigned for easier production. The final cover features the character Video Boy standing on a platform overlooking beams and streaks of light in shades of black and blue across the front and back. While the finished product differed from the initial vision, it incorporated the character, light-based visuals, and simple font design as outlined in the brief.
Making wip
The document describes the design process for the inlay, front cover, and back cover of a music album. For the inlay, the artist's black and white image was enlarged and duplicated, lyrics were added, and lighting effects were used. The front cover used multiple copies of the artist's image at different opacities to create a reflective illusion. The back cover featured a ruined wall image and bright lights in the corners to convey the artist's down to earth atmosphere, with consistent typography and positioning of text elements based on research.
Digipack
This document summarizes the design choices for a mock CD package. It discusses using overlapping photos on the front and back covers to link the images and theme. Audience research showed the most popular band name was "Sub Zero" and song title was "Youth". The booklet will include song lyrics. The CD and CD holder background will feature the same camouflage image so the CD blends in. The spine uses a cutout from the holder image for visual interest when the case is closed.
Personal Digipak Ideas
This document proposes three different design ideas for a Digipak for the band Icona Pop. All three ideas incorporate elements from the band's music video, such as images and themes. The first idea features a collage of images from the video on the front and photos of the band inside. The second replaces the collage with a photo of the band and displays the song title inside. The third combines elements from the first two, including a beach scene photo and selfies of the band taken during filming. Common elements across ideas include the band name, song title, and bright pink colors to represent the pop genre.
Music CD print screens
The document describes the process of editing a music CD cover. It includes screenshots showing the evolution of the front cover, back cover, inlay, and CD itself. The designer cropped an image, added textures and song/album titles. Feedback prompted changing the background to be more musical. Text was added to the inlay about supporting breast cancer. The same textures were used throughout to ensure cohesion across the CD packaging.
Adele digipak
The document summarizes the design elements of a digipak album cover. The front cover features a close-up black and white image of the artist looking down with minimal text. It draws attention to the artist's expression to suggest the album's emotional theme. The brightly colored disk reinforces the album name and draws the eye when opening the digipak. The back cover maintains engagement with an image of the artist making eye contact over descriptive text in a thin, non-distracting font similar to the front. The overall design uses a grayscale color scheme with green accents and thin text for longer passages like the track list.
Evaluation question two is
The document discusses the effectiveness of combining a main product and ancillary texts by analyzing common themes. It states that the main themes of fun and enjoyment with friends are continued across both the music video product and ancillary texts through elements like costumes, colors, and artists. Font choices and inclusion of text are also discussed in terms of maintaining themes and atmospheres between the products. Images and colors used aim to create a bright, summer feel that is consistent throughout. Conventions of the pop genre and specific artists are also considered to tie the products together effectively for the target audience.

Album cover final evaluation
My character and album cover design for Andy Mallen's new album "Video Boy" went through several iterations. Originally, the cover was to feature technology items like cameras and film strips, but this idea did not work out. The final design features the character Video Boy standing on a platform overlooking beams of light and streaks covering the front and back of the album in shades of blue. Video Boy's design was inspired by an iPod toy and paper craft styles. The font uses basic shapes arranged simply but understandably to spell out the title. While not exactly as envisioned, the finished album captures the key elements of the character overlooking light-filled chaos across the cover.
Digipak Construction
1. The document describes the design process for constructing a digipak for musician Hayden Calnin's EP. A photo of Hayden was selected as the basis for the album artwork and provides the mood of his music. The photo was color balanced to achieve a faded sepia tone.
2. The back panel displays the track listing and includes a brief description of Hayden and his music. It also includes the necessary legal information.
3. Page 5 keeps a minimalist design with the lyrics anchored to the left side and a light, blurred image in the background to provide an abstract backdrop for the lyrics.
Promotional cover research
The document summarizes research done on promotional covers by three individuals. They analyzed two promotional covers and found common codes and conventions. These included placing the artist and album name at the top, release date at the bottom, large central images, and inclusion of release date, album versions, and website address. The purpose is to effectively promote the artist and album through eye-catching design that informs audiences about the release.
Promotional cover research
This document summarizes research done on promotional covers. It finds that promotional covers typically feature the artist and album name prominently displayed, along with the release date, versions of the album available, and the artist's website. Imagery is usually just of the artist to promote them, and color is used to make the cover eye-catching. Typography choices like font, size, and bolding are meant to attract attention and relate to the target audience. The codes and conventions found were then analyzed in two example promotional covers.
Synergy
Cross media products & Synergy refers to using consistent imagery, graphics, colors and fonts across different media platforms to promote an artist. This helps tie together music videos, album covers, magazine ads and more. For the artist Disclosure, the album cover "Settle" features two boys in white outlines, which is also seen in the music video "F for You" through the use of silhouettes and neon colors. Wretch 32's "Black and White" album cover, magazine ad, and music video "Don't Go" all prominently feature the artist and reference the album title through their sole use of black and white. Labrinth's album "Electronic Earth" cover depicts the artist in neon colors,

The music video uses a narrative set in London to reflect the lyrics and engage the target female audience. Both the advertisement and digi-pak use a consistent color scheme of dark tones with silver and gold accents to tie the projects together and capture attention. Design conventions like the artist name, track list, and barcode are included across formats.
Digipakss
This document discusses the design elements of a digipak created by Chloe Yearsley for her music. It includes summaries of the front cover, back cover, interior, CD design, and spine. The front and back covers feature a dark cloudy background and lightning bolts to represent fear and mystery. The interior design includes rain to relate to the cloud theme. The CD design stands out with writing on it instead of the artist's name. The spine is mainly white to stand out from the digipak and features the radioactive symbol and writing going down. Overall, the designs link the elements to represent themes from Chloe's music video and song about radioactivity.
Digipak and poster analysis
The document discusses conventions for magazine advertisements and digital packaging (digipaks) for music. It notes that typical elements included are release dates, images, reviews, the album name, record label, and an image related to the album name. For house music genres, digipaks usually feature an image of the artist linked to their music video to create brand identity. The artist and album names are prominently displayed centrally. Backs typically include the artist image, track list, barcode and record company. Insides commonly have more artist images and lyrics. Effective digipaks examined were simple in design with the artist and album names clearly displayed alongside a single relevant image.

Digipak printscreens
The document describes the steps taken to create a digipak cover in Photoshop. Key steps include:
1) Getting a layout from Google Images and opening it in Photoshop.
2) Cropping and editing photographs to fit different sections of the cover. This included adjusting brightness, contrast and putting images in black and white.
3) Adding text elements like the artist and song names using downloaded fonts.
4) Adding additional design elements like logos and barcodes from online sources.
Evaluation question 2
The student created a music video and ancillary materials for a punk rock album. They chose recurring themes of sparks and fire to link the projects together and represent the edgy nature of punk rock. Stylistic elements like clothing, makeup, and typography were also kept consistent. By closely following punk rock conventions and creating a clear brand identity through the spark motif, the student aimed to effectively promote recognition of the album, artist, and their record label.
Final digipak
The final digipak contains a magazine advertisement and CD. Synergy between the elements was an important consideration, seen through matching colors and fonts between the ad and CD cover. The back of the booklet, inside of the booklet, and spine were also designed to relate to the music video's story and genre of pop music through continued use of pinks, blues, grays, and bright colors, as well as images of the main character Ashleigh.
Ancillary Tasks: CD Digipak
The document describes the process taken to design packaging for a fictional CD.

The goal was to appeal to the target audience of 17-25 year olds and match the style of similar artists.
My creative decisions- images
The document discusses image choices for an album cover and magazine advertisement. The same image was used for the front of the album cover and magazine advert so that the audience would recognize it. For the back cover, a side image of the artist was used showing her face and figure after some Photoshop editing. The inside left cover features a different shot from the music video maintaining elements of the artist's perfect appearance while including props like lights and a mirror to portray maturity but retain youthfulness.
Media part 5
The document discusses the process of designing an album cover in Photoshop. Some key points:
- Effects like distort and diffuse glow were used to add contrast and brightness to a photo. Lyrics were added in the text tool.
- Photoshop layers and effects like balance, stroke length, and sharpness were used to make a triangle overlay the photo seamlessly.
- An initial basic cover was improved in the final draft by making it more vibrant, colorful, and engaging for the target audience while keeping the sea theme and message of unity.
- Photoshop was used to import the cover, compress it, and adjust the brightness to make it stand out more on the flyer

Digipak design.
The document describes the design process for a digipak for a fictional album. It analyzes digipaks by Marina and the Diamonds and Florence and the Machine as inspiration. The front cover features a close-up shot of the artist to represent their style. Inside pages continue themes from the music video by featuring props and lyrics. Alternating pages show different sides of the artist's personality to represent the dark and light themes of the album.
Evaluation: Question 2
The document discusses the student's process of creating ancillary texts, including a digipak and poster, to accompany their main music video product. The student began by researching conventions of digipaks and posters from the country music genre. They analyzed existing examples to identify conventions like consistent branding, imagery relating to the genre, and key information included. The student took what they learned and applied it while designing their own digipak and poster over multiple drafts, making revisions based on feedback. In the end, the student compares their final designs to real industry examples and determines they successfully incorporated important conventions, creating ancillary texts that complement their main product and genre.
Album cover & poster (practice) step by-step
The document provides step-by-step instructions for creating a poster and album cover design. For the poster, the author applies a "Glowing Edges" tool to add a neon effect and adjusts settings to create a night sky look. Text is added in a purple font. For the album cover, the "Glowing Edges" tool is used, a blue layer is added, the model is cut out and overlayed, and a halftone filter is applied. Text and logos are incorporated. Filters like "Torn Edges" are applied to the back cover image to create a star field effect, and additional elements like the track list are included. The author learned to composite images and alter
Evaluation Task 2
The document discusses the design choices made for the digipak and promotional poster for an indie folk album. Elements were taken from the music video to maintain consistency of the artist's image and theme of isolation. The front cover features the artist similarly dressed and styled as in the video. The back, inside, and disc panels use minimalist white backgrounds and borders to link elements and maintain the genre's conventions.

The poster features the artist's image and social media links. The monochrome album cover was inspired by another cover, but includes splashes of color on interior pages. Overall, the combination of the main video and ancillary texts effectively capture the upbeat nature of drum and bass through consistent themes and adherence to genre conventions across all products.
A2 Advanced Portfolio Evaluation (question two)
The document discusses the design choices for a CD case, CD, magazine advertisement, and poster promoting a single by the artist Adele. The designs are done primarily in black and white to match Adele's style and make the pieces stand out from other colorful materials. Simple, casual images of the artist are used throughout to create a relaxed feel. Placement of images follows the rule of thirds. Text is minimized and the music label logo is made prominent to boost sales. The designs aim to tell the story of the song through their abstract, confused appearances.
G324 evaluation of print productions.
The document discusses the production of prints for an indie band called Tempesst. The author researched conventions of indie album covers and advertisements to inform their own print productions. Their album cover features a mask submerged in water, influenced by other indie covers that use simple, abstract focal points. The author analyzed elements of their prints like mise-en-scene, lighting, camerawork, composition, language features, design, and representation to evaluate how well they conformed to genre conventions. While some elements like composition and use of reviews aligned with conventions, others like lighting and lack of narrative were less conventional for the indie genre.
Digipak Analysis
The document provides an analysis of a digipak design for an indie folk album. It describes the design elements and artistic choices made for the front and back covers, as well as inside images and CD art. Neutral colors and a handwritten font create a simple, nostalgic aesthetic. Nature imagery and the artist's gaze imply themes of loss and longing. Continuity is achieved through a consistent color palette and typography across all elements of the packaging.
Analysis Of 3 CD Digipak
The document analyzes and summarizes the design elements of three CD digipaks:
1) Eminem's "Curtain Call" uses a stage motif with curtains and roses to represent the theme of show business. The roses motif is extended throughout the design.
2) Biffy Clyro's "Opposites" uses an abstract tree motif to represent nature. The front and back covers use opposing tree images to contrast themes.
3) Mika's "The Boy Who Knew Too Much" uses bright colors and crowded design to represent glam rock and new wave genres from the 1970s. The disc features an alien face image continuing the alternative theme.
Digipak
The document summarizes the design choices for a digipak album cover. For the front cover, the artist is featured prominently in the center wearing clothing representing the indie genre to attract the target audience. Research on other indie albums informed the use of the artist as the main focus. The inside cover features a close-up of the artist looking directly at the viewer to create a personal connection. The disc image also shows the artist to allow it to stand out without the case. The back cover includes the artist with a girl looking at him and the song titles to provide context for the album's focus on relationships. Cohesion across the design is created through consistent fonts and matching clothing elements in the images.
Evaluation q2
The student created a digipak, poster, music video, and music magazine to promote an artist and their acoustic pop music. The digipak, poster, and music video all featured the same guitar image to tie them together visually and represent the music. Feedback from the target audience showed they effectively conveyed the artist's image and acoustic pop genre through their consistent design choices across media that related back to the song and video. The student learned the importance of research, planning, and editing quality media products that would appeal to their intended audience.
Evaluation (Question#2)
The combination of the media product (music video) and ancillary tasks (magazine advert and DVD cover) was effective because the designer carefully integrated elements to convey a consistent "house style" and promote the pop genre. Specific techniques used included incorporating iconic scenes, similar color schemes, fonts, and logos to clearly link the products together and remind the audience of the music video. Small consistent details along with standard marketing elements helped generate interest in the romantic storyline and sell the idea of the media product to the target audience.
A2 digipak analysis
The document analyzes and summarizes the album artwork for Justin Bieber's "Believe" album and Nicki Minaj's "Pink Friday" album. For Justin Bieber's album, the front cover uses orange and yellow colors to create warmth and the album name is bold to catch attention. The back cover contrasts with bright yellow and lists the songs clearly. For Nicki Minaj's album, the front cover prominently features the pink color associated with her and emphasizes her image and the album name. The CD keeps the pink color and house style consistent with her image featured. Both album designs are assessed as simple yet professional with features worth considering for a designer's own album artwork.
Evaluation Question
This document analyzes a student's media product of a music video and accompanying digipak for their music. The student aimed to represent the rock music genre through conventions like the artist looking cool in sunglasses and leather jacket. Natural lighting was used in the video against genre conventions to match the sad song. The digipak and magazine advertisement incorporate elements from the video like the sunglasses and coat to represent the artist's persona and engage fans. Realistic features like track listings and pre-order information were also included.
Eq 1

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their Mainframe
Album cover and single cover and advert
- 1. Photography Media Music Video By Bethany Dobson
- 2. Details This presentation contains an Album Cover: FRONT AND BACK, a Single Cover and finally a magazine advert of the album. All editing and photography I had produced by myself using my Nikon D3000 camera and Macromedia Fireworks Software (editing). My music theme is pop and the appearance of all my designs are unique and creative, as I wanting my work to stand out in a positive way.
- 4. Magazine Advert- Analysis For the image of my magazine advert I wanted to give a ‘house wife’ look dated around the 1980’s , I thought this look was unique and I knew I could develop it in many ways. To help the effect I used colour consistency with the hair curlers and the outfit which were both yellow and then bright pink nails matching the pink banner along the bottom of the advert and also the stage name, Alia Stone and then finally the colour green around the ‘out now’ font consisted with the green curlers in the models hair and also the preview of the album cover in the bottom left of the advert. The background of the main image was brown however the spotlight I used developed the wall colour to a pink tint, this is a very light colour that didn’t stand out which helped all the other features on the advert to stay in centre of attention.
- 6. Album Cover: FRONT- Analysis The theme of the album cover is, pop art, it was created on Macromedia Fireworks. I think the front cover works well as it is quite plain with the white background, however the image is very bright and effective which makes the appearance look so good. The effect makes the image look more like a drawing rather than a photo.
- 8. Album Cover: BACK- Analysis The back of the album cover shows a more natural emotion expressing laughter and joy, which reflects the contents of the CD to be positive, which would encourage bigger audience to buy the album.
- 9. Single Cover
- 10. Single Cover- Analysis The front of the Single Cover is completely different to the Album cover and the magazine advert. Throughout my research I discovered that many pop artists use a completely different theme for the image they will use on there single. The image I used shows slight sadness and a story, which reflects the lyrics of the song I will use for the music video ‘picking up the pieces’ the effects I used on the image were mainly writing the song title on the mirror using lipstick, I thought the idea was unique and also the use of mirrors was very different. The scenery of the image tells a story, which would encourage people to buy the single to discover the meaning behind the image.
