While The Rolling Stones and MCR use consistent branding, The Gorillaz is described as more unique with its animated characters but similar scribbled font. Across bands, Digipaks are found to advertise the artists' image and past work to entice fans
Album Cover Presentation
This album cover for Kanye West's debut album "Graduation" features a brown bear bursting out of a white structure and reaching towards the sky, representing Kanye exploding in popularity. The bright colors and fantastical creatures are intended to attract audiences and entice them to buy the album. The use of the color pink and the bear mascot became signatures for Kanye. The font sizes and styles distinguish the album name from Kanye's name. By depicting himself as a bear, Kanye took a unique approach compared to typical rap album covers that feature photos of the artist.

Taylor swift presentation
Taylor Swift's "You Belong With Me" music video depicts typical high school stereotypes and relationships. It shows Taylor as the geeky girl next door who is in love with the school's football star. His girlfriend is the popular, dangerous cheerleader depicted by her red car and dress. Throughout the video, Taylor watches longingly as the football star fights with his girlfriend from afar. In the end, Taylor's transformation into a beautiful prom queen in a white dress allows her to win over the football star, resolving the relationship tension between the typical jock and geek.

1. Todorov's narrative theory which describes 5 stages - equilibrium, disruption, realization, attempt to repair, restoration of equilibrium. This is applied to the Foo Fighters music video "Learn To Fly".

3. Levi-Strauss' concept of binary oppositions in films such as hero vs villain.
4. Barthes' narrative codes - proairetic (actions), hermeneutic (puzzles), connotative (character), cultural (knowledge), symbolic (themes).

- 1. The black eyed peas logo. The contrasting back and white makes the logo stand out! The font reflects The bands genre! The One Direction logo is very bright and pop! This suits the genre. There is also a clever arrow that has been placed in the'D' obviously to show direction! The Lunar Pilots logo again is like the black eyed peas logo. With contrasting Colours! The Led-Zeppelin logo is agin quite plain and simple. The font is quite strange though, And the stretched effect can show the rock genre. The Robbie Williams logo like some other logos has the colour contrasts to make it professional and stand out! There is also a star in the 'R' showing that he thinks he is a Star! The Kiss logo really reflects the genre with the fire! The colours also contrast, there is red, orange and black. This can reflect the fire, spirit And danger of this rock band! The Queen log. The crown is liked with the name. There are also a lot of dominant animals in this logo. Showing power. The Oasis logo is very simple. I think that this reflects the simplicity of their music. They use just their voices and instruments. The New Inventions Logo is very cleverly done it is also very bright. This reflects the genre.
