This document describes the process of designing a digipak for a music album. The designer discusses selecting photos that relate to the music video and poster for continuity. Photos were edited to be black and white or add color effects. Text was added including song titles, credits, and barcode. The template was changed to better fit the photos. Multiple revisions were made to straighten text, fit photos correctly, and arrange elements across both CDs in the digipak.
Evaluation Question 1
This document summarizes how the media product uses and challenges conventions of real music videos. It discusses several shots and elements from the original video that were used or adapted, such as a slow motion shot of the artist rapping in a car edited to black and white. However, some conventions were challenged, such as filming a walking shot in black and white in an alley rather than on a steady road. Both videos also lack narrative. While the design of the fake album cover challenges conventions like the original's gold theme, it keeps the parental advisory sign. Text displaying the song title at the start is a convention both videos use.
Final piece2
Michal Cuninka is designing a poster and CD cover for an upcoming grime artist called The Unknown. They are exploring concepts like urban areas and graffiti walls. Key influences are graphic designers Roberto Blake, Tess Hulme, Rowan Pervis, and Nick Purser who inspire Michal's experimentations with light effects, typography, and collage techniques. Their final piece combines a futuristic pixilated title with urban elements to advertise the album release.
Making of my digipak
The document describes the process of creating a digipak for a single album release. First, an iconic image from the music video was chosen for the back cover to represent the song's meaning. Next, the record label logo was added to the bottom right, matching other artists' designs. A barcode was then placed on the right side for realism. Finally, small print with promotion details and a songlist were added to complete the digipak design in Photoshop and Illustrator.
Font and colour
The document discusses four potential color schemes for a digipak:
1) Gold, white, red. Gold represents luxury but red may be too dominant.
2) Black, gold, white. Bold but black and dark blue may be too dark for the album's mood.
3) Navy, gold, black. Neutral colors but too dark.
4) Black, white, red. Complimentary colors that stand out but could incorporate gold through the artist's logo.
The document also discusses font ideas, selecting one that is bold and evokes mystery fitting the artist.
Digipak Research
An important part of a band's identity is how they present themselves through their album artwork and merchandise. This establishes a consistent style that fans will recognize. The band All Time Low evolved their album covers over time but maintained similarities like the font of their name and cartoon-like drawings. When creating merchandise, bands also try to maintain consistent elements like color schemes, patterns, or always including the lead singer. The student demonstrated this by keeping the same font, watercolor stains and branch patterns on posters and shirts to establish the band's style.
Question 2
The document discusses the effectiveness of linking together a main music product (album) and ancillary materials (digipak, poster, music video).
Key points made:
- The digipak, poster, and music video were designed to link through consistent use of color palette, font, imagery, and monochrome style.
- Black, white, and grey were used to focus on song lyrics and convey negative emotions. Monochrome style also links the digipak and video.
- Layout of poster highlights album cover and digipak highlights front/back covers of singer to make them recognizable.
The creator believes the materials successfully link through synergy of color and design while still

The document discusses album art ideas for a group project focusing on Avenged Sevenfold's album "Nightmare". The artist drew the band's symbol, the Death Bat, and added the Joker's makeup to create their own twist. They scanned and digitally edited the drawing, then drew another poster design. A draft digipak layout was proposed including forest imagery to represent the album's theme and location for their music video shoot. The group aimed to develop original artwork while representing Avenged Sevenfold for their coursework.
Initial ideas music video
The document outlines initial plans for a music video for the song "Chewing Gum" by Nina Nesbitt. It discusses choosing the song and actor Harriet Laban. Multiple locations are selected for filming, including a woodland area, a room with a black backdrop, and a kitchen. A storyboard was created but the document suggests switching to a shot list for clearer planning. Camera techniques like Golden Hour will be used. The narrative will show the actor portraying different "identities" through stereotypical clothing to represent lyrics about changing flavors like chewing gum. Performance outfits will be modern pop style.
How effective is the combination of main product
The document discusses the effectiveness of linking a main music video product to ancillary texts like album artwork. It identifies three visual links between the products: 1) the red-haired artist Ava Manhattan wears the same corset in both, 2) both use a white background, and 3) the color red is emphasized in both through editing. The audience can recognize them as linked through the consistent appearance of the artist. Elements were included to mimic a real album like barcodes and copyright info. Influential album designs helped understand conventions. Overall the video and products were successful in representing the dubstep genre but could have added patterns for more artistry. The target audience will find it attractive as something new for the genre that doesn't
Media A2 Evaluation Presentation
The document summarizes how various media technologies were used at different stages of creating a music video for the Sex Pistols song "Schools Are Prisons." Technologies like blogs, Facebook, digital cameras, video cameras, and editing software helped with planning, research, construction, and evaluation. Feedback showed the video could have improved lighting and shot quality to better convey the meaning and punk genre.
Colour schemes
The document discusses three color schemes considered for a video project. The first scheme is black, light gray, and yellow, with black representing hip hop culture and yellow referencing police warning tape. The second is black, red, and white, with red chosen for its sexy and dangerous connotations. The third incorporates navy blue and lime green to represent the album's money theme. Ultimately, the first scheme of black, light gray, and yellow is chosen for its visual cohesiveness and references to police tape.
Initial ideas music video
The document outlines initial plans for a music video for the song "Chewing Gum" by Nina Nesbitt. It discusses choosing Harriet Laban as the actor due to her familiarity with the song and local availability. Multiple locations are selected for filming, including a woodland area and house room with a black backdrop. A storyboard was created but the document suggests switching to a shot list for clearer planning. Different camera techniques like golden hour photography will be used. The narrative will feature the actor changing stereotypical identities shown through clothing, with a modern outfit used for the performance sections.
Question 2 Media Studies A2 Evaluation
The document discusses the design process for packaging accompanying a music video. It begins by listing potential sources of light and choosing those more associated with urban settings. Early designs incorporated candles, lightbulbs, and lighters. The final image features an illuminated phone box intended to symbolize safety and hope for the protagonist in the video. However, the document notes there could have been stronger visual links between the packaging and video through integrating recurring imagery or typefaces. While brand consistency was attempted within the printed materials, differences in color and editing style between packaging and video are identified. Overall, the document reflects on lessons learned regarding improved planning and integration across ancillary works.
Ancillary designs powerpoint. evaluation. media.
The document discusses feedback received on various design elements for an album. For the front cover, feedback suggested separating the two title words and making the image darker. For the inside center spread, feedback was positive about lyrics matching the image and fading certain face features. For the inside left panel, feedback noted the image represented both the letter L and the sign for "loser", and to keep color consistency. Feedback on the back cover praised the color scheme and slanted image for its edginess. Feedback on inside panels discussed reflecting the video storyline and giving a street feel. For the poster, feedback centered around making the image bolder and artist name larger to better advertise the album.
Preliminary task
The document summarizes the creation of two media pieces: a hip-hop poster for JeanRalphio and Tommy Fresh, and a rock CD cover for Mouse Rat. For the hip-hop poster, the creator shot two male models in a hip-hop themed scene using music and colors to focus on the models and include graffiti. For the rock CD cover, the creator used a black and white image with dark lighting and text to portray an edgy feel by showing a model holding a bat, conforming to rock genre conventions.

1. initial plans mv 2018 2
The document outlines three initial ideas for music videos for a selected song. Idea one proposes an animated cartoon music video telling a story through animation. Idea two suggests filming a single performer lip syncing to the song with various camera angles and shots in an urban setting. Idea three puts forth the idea of a performance-style video filming a dance routine with effects added in post-production. Strengths identified are the ideas' achievability, adaptability, application of genre conventions, and ability to work for one song. Weaknesses note the potential difficulty obtaining certain elements like animation software, performers, or equipment.
Conventions of Texts Evaluation
The music video uses conventional camera shots and editing techniques but also challenges conventions in some ways. It uses a cloning effect and slow motion to reflect the song's serious message and show the girl feeling isolated from the world. The costumes, bedroom backdrop, and music poster were designed to represent the song's themes and personalities while still appealing to the target audience. Some elements of the digipack, like the holagrish effect on the artist's image, challenge conventions by being less common but still relate back to the music video.
Evaluation question 2
The student believes their main music video and ancillary products (digipak and poster) work well together. Similar themes, images, and colors are used across all products to create cohesion and a distinct identity. Specifically, the dark color palette and sad expressions of the band members are consistently depicted. Additionally, the album titles, song lyrics, and video narrative reflect a theme of heartbreak. Overall, the products are effectively linked while maintaining an authentic indie style that appears self-produced.
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. Photos and video stills are incorporated throughout to connect the pieces while keeping the overall style simplistic and elegant.
EVALUATION QUESTION 2
The student created a digipak, poster, and music video to promote a band. They used consistent themes, images, and styles across all products to create a cohesive identity for the band. The products all featured images of the band members and used dark colors and themes of romance and heartbreak to match the genre and theme of the music video. Imagery, fonts, and other design elements were carried over to link the products together and ensure the audience would recognize they were all promoting the same band.

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.
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.
Digipak Printscreens
The document describes the process of designing a digipak for a music album. The designer edited photos to portray the happy and fun persona of the artist. Images were cropped, had their contrast, brightness, and saturation adjusted to make colors stand out. Photos were placed on the front and back covers along with the artist name and song titles.

2) Photos from the music video were used in the digipak. Locations matched between the video and photos.
3) A consistent color scheme of pink, black, white, and grey was used throughout all products.
4) The background design of a faded gray cross and spots was replicated across the website and digipak.
Evaluation question 2
The document discusses the design choices made for a music video, digipack, and website for a band. A single image representing the themes of relationships and transition was used across all three products to create coherence. Red was used as the main color to match the music video and convey danger or alarm. Black and white were the main colors for the digipack interior and website for contrast and visual appeal. Embedded clips and links were included on the website to promote and showcase the music video and band's music. The designs aimed to conform to conventions of the indie pop genre.
How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts
1) The document analyzes how the ancillary materials for a band called Fire Drive Tiger effectively complement their music video.
2) Key elements that link the ancillary materials and video together include consistent use of the band's signature orange, black and white color scheme, similar fonts, imagery of the band's tiger logo, and portrayals of the band's rock/pop genre and appeal to teenage audiences.
3) The document concludes that the ancillary materials and video work well together to represent the band's style and genre while appealing to their target audience.
Question 2- Evaluation
The document discusses the effectiveness of combining a main music video product with ancillary texts like a poster and digital pack. It finds combinations are effective when they are recognizable through similar codes, conventions, and appeals to the target audience. Examples shown include using the same black and white forest establishing shot and layered animal images in both the video and digital pack for recognition across products. Repeating close-up shots, black and white filters, fonts, colors, and logos throughout the different pieces also makes for an effective combination by reinforcing the message through repetition for viewers.
Construction process
The document describes the process of editing an image for use on a digipak cover for a progressive house/dance music album. The editor deleted the background, duplicated and recolored the image layers, and added effects like lines to mimic a computer screen and blending colors to make the image more abstract. Inspired by other album covers, the editor experimented with overlaying nature images and adjusting colors to tie the image to the music genre's conventions. The final cover image was constructed in InDesign along with the reverse side, spine, and interior pages to complete the digipak design. An advertisement poster was also created using the main cover image to promote the album.
Spine
This document discusses the process of creating a spine for a digipak album cover. The author experimented with layering and coloring images in Photoshop to create background effects for the spine. However, these were deemed too sharp for the acoustic pop genre. A softer background with golden tones was then created. Label text for the title, artist, and reference number was added using a conventional font. The exposure of the background was increased and text inverted to white to ensure visibility against the colors. The final spine design incorporated these adjustments.
Editing Decisions for digipak
The document discusses the development of a digipak and magazine advertisement for a band called Polar. It describes how the creator researched typical digipak sizes, edited images from a music video shoot to use on the covers, and manipulated the designs in Photoshop. Different cover concepts were tried before settling on a silhouette image of the band. Design elements like track listings, gradients, and copyright info were added. Continuity was maintained across the digipak interior, back cover, and advert through consistent use of images, colors, and fonts.
Digipak
This digipak design is for an unsigned artist named Carly Jones. The front cover features Carly's photo with the album title "Reason to Smile", which is also the title of one of her songs and the music video produced for her. The back contains the track list in black and white. Inside spreads contain additional photos of Carly to connect the viewer to the artist and music throughout opening the digipak. Colors and design elements were chosen to tie the front and back covers together cohesively.
Eval q's 1 and 2
The document summarizes the design choices for a digipak, magazine advertisement, and music video created to promote an album. Key points:
- The digipak uses a simple black and white design with one photo to create synergy between the products and music video's alternative theme.
- The magazine ad follows conventions like central photo and reviews but challenges norms with limited text. It uses the same font and photo as the digipak.
- The music video includes conventions like lip syncing and camera eye contact but also challenges conventions through techniques like overlaying text on the artist's face.
- Synergy is created between the products through matching color schemes, fonts, images and tying into the
AS Media Evaluation Q2
The artist used a black and white theme across their music video, website, and album digipak to represent the tone of their indie music genre. While the video itself could not be edited to black and white, the ancillary materials used this theme to link the elements together visually. Photos from the video shoot were also used on the digipak and website. The artist aimed to portray their fun personality seen joking with fans in the video also through more artistic and fun photos in the ancillary materials. Both the guitar and drum set featured prominently in the video are also pictured in the images on the digipak and website to maintain a direct connection between the elements representing the band's sound.

Flappers by Thaomy Le
Flappers were a trend in the 1920s where young women adopted a rebellious lifestyle through their fashion and behavior. They wore short, form-fitting dresses and bobbed hair, and engaged in activities like drinking, smoking, and casual sex. This was a departure from previous generations of women, as flappers supported women's rights and chose to pursue pleasures instead of focusing on pleasing men. However, flappers were negatively stereotyped in the media as wild and dangerous due to their rejection of traditional social norms for women's behavior at the time.
Colour correction explanation
The document discusses applying color correction to a music video to fit within the indie rock/pop genre. It analyzed example music videos to understand the genre's visual style and used YouTube tutorials to apply color correction uniformly across clips filmed on different days with varying sunlight. Color correction created a consistent atmosphere and impression and made the overall video appear more cold, with a brown tint, to match the song's lyrics.
Skills audit
Thaomy Le reflects on improvements to their researching skills since AS level. They have developed a better understanding of using technology on Blogger, learning about embed codes and adapting to regularly updating posts. Now in A2, Thaomy has expanded their knowledge of technology and applies it to Blogger, utilizing more video and presentations which they find time consuming but put significant effort into, such as changing layouts and creating online content with tools like emaze and slideshare.
Plan: Location and settings
This document outlines several locations to be used for filming different scenes of a musical project, including Kyoto Gardens for a violin introduction in front of a waterfall, outside the artist's house for jumps between singing, a canal for a character to act and tell a story while wearing a mask, Highgate woods for the artist to sing while walking through, and an abandoned area near the house to represent loneliness.
Research: Laura Mulveys Theory
Laura Mulvey developed the theory of the male gaze, which argues that women are typically represented in media as objects for male pleasure and the viewer adopts a male perspective. She cites the music videos for "Toxic" by Britney Spears and "Summer" by Calvin Harris as examples, where the women are dressed provocatively and shot from angles that sexualize their bodies for the male viewer. Mulvey suggests this representation reinforces patriarchal notions of gender inequality and the objectification of women in society.
Technologies
The document discusses the use of various technologies in creating a blog and video project. It describes using Prezi to present ideas, Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro for editing, After Effects for special effects like glitches and titles, Photoshop for title backgrounds, and websites like SoundCloud and MP3 Monkey for copyright-free music and sound effects. While After Effects was challenging to learn, the author was able to master it through tutorials. Multiple technologies were needed to combine different elements into a final product.
Genre and Conventions
Genre refers to the classification of media texts into categories based on common conventions or tropes. Teen dramas typically feature stereotyped teenagers categorized into types like jocks or nerds. The genre of teen films emerged in the 1950s as the postwar economy improved and society began shaping teenage culture through marketing of music, fashion, and lifestyle. While many portray negative stereotypes, teen films realistically reflect how the school lifestyle and perceptions of teenagers have changed over the decades. Teen drama is considered a genre comprised of various subgenres like horror, comedy, and romance that target niche audiences.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

- 4. Photo’s being included for album cover. I will be using Grunge background effect to show links to our music video having a brown filter effect. Levitation effect of the girl in the music video. In most of indie rock music album cover they do not show artist/bands in the front album cover. Therefore to make it link to the music video and actual genre, I decided to make the girl levitate through doing the process of using photo shop. The font will be hand made and produced in illustrator, it will be similar to bastilles logo but in my own version.
- 5. This was an experimental mockup to show my understanding of how I came up with my idea.
- 6. I made the background combine together with the actual imagery to suit the grunge background. Therefore I have to make the imagery black and white for this to work.
