Digipak Construction
The document discusses designing an album cover. The designer wanted to make the image brighter to give it a summery feel. They chose the album name "Reminisce" because it means enjoyable recollection of the past, fitting the theme of thinking back to childhood. Different fonts and layouts were tested to find the most effective design. Feedback was received that the top font needed to be brighter, so blue and red options were tried and blue was selected as it did not clash with the background as much as red.
Digipak Initial ideas
The document discusses initial ideas for a digipak album cover. It proposes using a simple single image design inspired by other album covers in the same genre. Handwritten or cursive fonts are suggested to make the cover look more homemade and urban. Specific ideas include merging the album and band names into a photograph of a milk bottle or water bottle label, or a black and white photograph with white lines. The genre is best represented by simple designs using black, white, bright pastel, or primary colors.
Digipak
The front cover of the CD digipak for You Me At Six's album "Take Off Your Colours" features a colorful design that references the album's name. While the design is artistic, the band likely prioritized their music over extravagant packaging. The simple brown template and mixed colors make the front cover visually appealing without being overly elaborate compared to other albums. A variety of fonts are used to distinguish the band name from song and album titles.
Cd cover
The document discusses the design plans for a band's album cover. The front cover will feature the band's name in bold black font against a colorful, eye-catching background incorporating beams of colored light shooting from the band. Their image will be centered with a bright beam drawing attention. The album title "Canvas" will appear smaller at the bottom in a curly font. The back cover will continue the bright color and black-and-white theme while listing song titles and details simply. The inside sleeve will simply feature a photo of a drum set to appeal to the band's young target audience.
Rihanna digipak
The digipak uses reds, pinks, and purples to create a theme of love, passion, and mystery. Roses are featured to represent romance and gifts. The artist's name is in bold capital letters to convey power and aggression. The packaging focuses on highlighting the artist's image and further developing her persona. It presents her in a delicate, emotional pose lying on roses to portray femininity and a dreamlike state. The colors and imagery are used to sell the artist's image rather than just the album.
Production Experiments
Simran conducted an experiment designing a magazine cover featuring Ed Sheeran. She used tools like the burn tool and adjusting brightness, contrast and saturation to darken the background and make Ed stand out. She included the price, recent music news headlines, and top artists to engage readers. Based on a survey, she priced the magazine at £2.50 which she felt was reasonable. She believes people can relate to Ed Sheeran's songs about relationships and drinking, so he makes a good cover subject. For her own magazine, she will target females using different colors like pinks, blues and purples.

This document summarizes the process of designing a digipak for a Lady Gaga album. Key details include:
- Two photos of Lady Gaga were selected for the cover to show her vulnerable side and connect with audiences.
- Photoshop was used to edit the photos and prepare them for placement on the digipak template.
- Fonts and formatting were chosen for the artist name, album title, and tracklist to make them stand out against the black background.
- Additional interior pages were designed, including one to hold the CD, by editing photos and laying them out across a booklet template.
Power Point Album Cover
The document discusses and analyzes the album covers of several artists and what they represent about the music:
Pink's album cover shows her riding a rocking horse, representing that the album is not serious. Adele's cover is dark with her partly hidden, showing her emotions but wanting to hide. Pixie Lott's simple white background and clothes represent everyday themes in her music. Duffy's black and white moody cover suggests serious, moody music.

Mind+map+(3) (1)
The document discusses the design of an album cover featuring four black and white images of the band members cast in a green shadow, intended to convey a mysterious and intriguing musical style linked to nature. The green lighting and lack of text in the center is meant to subtly highlight the band and reinforce their original musical style and importance over their individual songs.
Contents page construction
The document describes the design process for a contents page of a music magazine. The original design was bland, so the author chose to scatter images across the page in different areas rather than grouping them.

Colors like red and blue were added to pull off a retro theme while keeping the images distinct on a plain white background.

The digipak uses dark colors and images that reflect loneliness to represent the themes of the album. It also keeps a consistent font, layout, and focus on Smith's name throughout. The tour poster similarly uses the same dark color scheme, font, and image style as the digipak to maintain a connection to the album's themes and visual identity.
Analysing Digipaks - Sia
Sia uses consistent stylistic elements across her album packaging and tour poster to portray a mysterious persona. The front cover features her signature blonde wig against a black background, symbolizing her desire for privacy. Similarly, the CD uses a script font and torn white strips, possibly representing Sia's inner turmoil. Across the back cover and poster, the wig and black-and-white color scheme continue while additional images and a longer shot imply Sia is gradually opening up through her music and tour. Consistency in imagery and style help maintain Sia's artistic brand while hinting at her personal journey.

The track listing on the back stood out in a different color. Overall, both digipaks followed consistent color schemes throughout.
Alica Keys Unfin
The album cover depicts Alicia Keys sitting at an old wooden piano with worn keys, symbolizing a diary that is aged and deep-rooted. The piano is slightly tilted open, like a diary being opened, so the viewer can see Keys' entire face and she can express her feelings through her music. The simple cover drawing parallels between the piano and a diary are meant to convey that the album will contain intimate, emotional music straight from the heart.
Photoshops
The document describes the process an artist took to design an advertisement for their magazine. They chose an image of the artist that represented her positively and linked to her genre of calm love songs. They added the artist's logo, album name, and release date using the same fonts from the album packaging to create consistency. Critic reviews and ratings were included to make the ad look more professional. The designer reflects that they would experiment with different images and black and white in the future to better match the overall branding.
Cd colours
The designers chose blue and grey colors for a magazine advertisement and CD cover to match the sad mood of the song being promoted, taking inspiration from Adele's black and white album covers for similar genre music. While black and white would have been too dull, blue maintains some sadness but also adds mystery and eye-catching appeal. Red, blue, grey, and off-white were selected for the text and background as red symbolizes lost love, blue and grey represent the mystery of heartbreak, and white signifies purity, with all colors complementing each other clearly.

Media Gangster Conventions - Task 2
The document provides information on the key conventions of gangster films. It notes that gangster films typically feature organized crime, weapons, drugs, Italian families, violence, and cars chases. They often follow a character who rises up through crime and gains power and wealth through illicit means. The costumes are usually suits or long coats, and the settings involve the criminal underworld. Four film openings are then analyzed in terms of mise-en-scene elements like costumes, props, lighting, shots, and sound design. Elements like guns, dark lighting, city settings, and titles with white or red text against a black background are discussed as common across the openings.

Some common elements identified include: titles displayed in black and white in an old/smart font style, titles lasting 3-5 seconds, use of non-diegetic music and some diegetic music, voiceovers to provide context, low lighting and dark tones to set a dramatic atmosphere, quick cuts and pacing to engage the audience, and establishing shots along with mid and close-up shots of characters.
A2 Media Task 2 – Conventions Of A Music Video
The document analyzes the conventions used in several music videos including Rizzle Kicks, Ed Sheeran, Olly Murs, and Wretch 32. It discusses the mise-en-scene, editing, and camera work in the videos. Natural lighting is used in many of the videos to give a casual feel. The settings, costumes, and props relate to the lyrics of the songs. The editing cuts between shots are timed to the rhythm of the music to engage the audience. A variety of shot types like mid shots and close ups are used to show expressions and focus on certain elements.
A2 Media Task 4 – Analysis Of Music Videos
This document analyzes the editing techniques used in several music videos. It discusses how the shots in the videos are typically between 3 to 5 seconds long and cut together based on the rhythm and beat of the songs. The shots alternate between mid shots, two shots, and long shots of the artists performing, as well as some non-performance shots included to separate performances. By matching the timing and cuts of the shots to the pace of the songs, the videos create an effective experience for the viewer that is synchronized to both the visuals and audio.
Advert Construction
The document discusses the process of selecting and editing a low-angled photo to create an advertisement. The photographer adjusted the brightness and added other images and layers to fit around the people in the photo. Different layouts were tested until an effective final design was chosen. The fonts were also adjusted for consistency, with the same font and black stroke used for all text to make the white letters stand out against the background without clashing. An updated cover was also needed due to the changes made.
A2 media task 8 theorists
Andrew Goodwin believes that music videos are simply a visual interpretation of the lyrics of a song. Taylor Swift's "You Belong With Me" supports this view with its literal interpretation, while Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me A River" is more metaphorical but still links to the lyrics. However, videos like Fatboy Slim's "Praise Him" and Ed Sheeran's "Don't" have abstract videos with little connection to the lyrics. Carol Vernallis identifies four ways to analyze music videos: through narrative and performance; diegesis and how a story is created; camera shots and framing; and editing, which may break continuity for effect.

Album covers.pptx.......................
The document summarizes the process of creating an album cover in Photoshop. It describes how the creator cropped the background image to a square format, used the spot healing brush to blend the floor, added text including the band name and song title using different fonts and colors, and incorporated feedback to simplify the text for clarity. Feedback recommended highlighting the instruments more vibrantly, but attempts to do so were unsuccessful and did not improve the overall design.
Research in to adverts for digipaks
The document discusses several music album posters and their design elements. It analyzes aspects like the use of the artist's name, image, and album title to increase recognition. Urgency to pre-order is implied through wording. Font choice, color schemes, and layouts are examined for how well they engage viewers and showcase the artist. Both conventional and unusual design techniques across the posters are considered.
Media evaluation
The document summarizes the key elements of a music magazine media product the author created. They analyzed various music magazines to understand conventions like title placement, image styles, and writing tones. For their front cover, they used bold colors and layered text to make the title stand out. In the contents, they included images and page numbers to guide readers. Their double-page feature used a large central image with text wrapping around, and incorporated band interviews with a casual tone like similar magazines.
Evaluation Question One; front cover of digipak.
This document discusses the design choices made for the front cover of a fictional album. It begins by explaining that the cover image was chosen after experimenting with poses and lighting during a test shoot. It then analyzes the front covers of existing albums by Asgeir, Lana Del Rey, and Katy Perry that provided inspiration. Key elements like the artist name, album title, lighting, and borders are discussed. Controversial covers by Lady Gaga and Bat for Lashes are also examined. The document concludes by justifying the design choices made for the fictional cover, including using harsh lighting to represent a split personality and filling the frame to show confidence.
Album inspiration
The document discusses album artwork for indie bands like Mumford and Sons. It notes that the writer prefers album covers that feature interesting images rather than just text, and likes the subtly grainy quality of Mumford and Sons' covers that reference their indie folk genre. The writer is inspired by how the images evoke thought and draw the audience in, and wants to create a similar aesthetic for their own digi-pack cover using a grainy photo taken with a disposable or polaroid camera to follow indie conventions.
Evaluation
This document is a student's reflection on their design of a mock music magazine. The student discusses their choices in layout, design elements, and content to make the magazine eye-catching and representative of real music magazines. Key design choices included using bright colors, different font sizes and styles, column formatting, and large prominent images. The student aimed to challenge conventions by focusing more on visuals than text for the contents page and using brighter colors than typical magazines. Overall, the student sought to represent different music genres and social groups that listen to those genres through the content and styles presented.
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
This document analyzes a student's media product of a music video and accompanying digipak for their music album. The student aimed to develop conventions of rock music genres in their work. In the music video, they included elements like sunglasses, leather jacket, and guitar to portray looking "cool." They also chose natural lighting to match the sad tone of their song. In the digipak and advertisements, they incorporated bold fonts, images from the video, and codes/messages to fans to develop a realistic rock album packaging and marketing. The goal was to thoughtfully represent the genre through visuals and design choices.
Digipak Design Ideas
The artist took inspiration from the layout and design of other album covers, curving the song titles and placing the barcode and information on the same side as the song titles. They also placed the artist name on the left side instead of the right like most pop albums. They included the copyright print and label signs to look more professional. The artist name is placed at the top opposite other elements to make it the most prominent feature, and the album title is designed like a tattoo similar to another album cover.
Audience research
The document provides details on planning and designing a music magazine. It includes the results of an audience interview which found the target readership is mainly female teenagers interested in rock music. It discusses font and color scheme selections as well as ideas for photo spreads. The front cover concept is to feature a young male musician busking to appeal to both male and female readers. A double page story idea focuses on a personal profile of one band member rather than a group interview.
FONT RESEARCH
The document summarizes the author's research into different fonts for a jazz album cover. The author looked at fonts that represented the jazz genre through features like bold lettering, keyboards, and multi-colored styles. One font was chosen for having a "retro, 'jazzy' look" that would stand out on store shelves. Another font resembled a feminine style more suitable for the female artist. A final font suggested a "party like" and nighttime vibe through its sparkly style resembling a disco ball.
Cd cover
The document discusses the design plans for a band's album cover. It describes using colorful beams shooting from the band on the front cover to represent their musical ideas. The band will be placed in the middle surrounded by a bright beam to draw attention. Song titles will be in a curly font near the bottom. The back cover will continue the bright color and black/white theme. Simple fonts will list the song titles and institutional details near the bottom. The inner sleeve photo will show a drum set to appeal to the band's young rock/pop fans.
Evaluation question 2
The document discusses how the creator linked together their main media product (a music video) with ancillary texts (a CD cover and poster). Specifically:
- The CD cover and poster used the same font and certain colors like pinks and purples to create a consistent brand identity and make it clear they were related.
- Photographs from the music video shooting were used on the CD cover and poster to directly connect the visuals between the products.
- Locations and clothing featured on the CD cover matched what appeared in the music video to help the audience understand the connections.
- The logo, font, and colors were carried through all pieces to tie them together as a cohesive package representing
Ancillary text research
The document discusses album covers and posters from the indie folk genre. It analyzes covers from Noah and the Whale, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, and Daughter. It notes that indie folk covers often feature outdoor natural settings and nature themes linked to folk music. The document also looks at posters from Noah and the Whale, Mumford & Sons, and Of Monsters and Men, finding they commonly use the album art and quotes to promote the music. It concludes by examining covers from other genres and how they differ visually from the more neutral indie folk style.
Evaluation
The document discusses the extent to which the author's intentions for their fanzine were realized. It analyzes specific elements like articles, layout, and design choices. For articles, the author's topics were followed except one was adjusted for easier research. The layout stayed similar to the plan to be artistic but realistic. Color schemes mostly matched intentions but some pages used different colors. Overall, the author found their original ideas were largely realized in the finished fanzine.
Pre production planning
This document outlines Sofia Morana's pre-production planning for her music magazine project. It includes ideas for the magazine name, masthead designs, color schemes, photo shoot plans, example layouts, potential articles, and an overview of the magazine. Sofia has since edited aspects of the magazine, changing the name to "View Point" and redesigning the masthead to better represent the audience perspective focus.

Digipak Cover Construction
- 1. I wanted to make the image look slightly brighter to enhance the colours and give it an overall summery and fun feel instead of the dark look it had before due to the sun going in.
- 2. I came up with the idea of “Reminisce” for the album name because by definition it means enjoyable recollection of the past and so fits perfectly with the theme of the song about thinking back to when you were young and all the kinds of things you got up to. I then looked online for some fonts that fitted the style of the artists and theme.
- 3. Once I was happy with the album name and font, I started to play around with different layouts to see what one looked the most effective and conventional. Doing this allowed me to see the variety of different looks I could use for my cover and meant I was able to select the one that stood out the most.
