1) George Ezra - Wanted on Voyage features the artist in a crowd, drawing attention to his red shirt. The bold font highlights the artist's name over the album title. Black, white and red are used consistently.
2) Half Moon Run - Dark Eyes depicts fire and sparklers on a black background on the front and back. This suggests a social gathering and fun element. The soft yellow font contrasts calmly against the dark image in a casual, informal style.
Digipack Analysis
This album cover features a surreal image of teddy bears emerging from the ground like an army, representing the song's message about rising up against oppression. The dark color scheme creates an ominous atmosphere fitting the song. The text is intentionally minimal to emphasize the striking image.
Existing digipaks
This document summarizes and analyzes the album covers of three different albums:
1) AC/DC's "Black Ice" album cover uses red and black colors and imagery of deteriorating metal to represent the rock genre.
2) Nelly's "Sweatsuit" album cover depicts the artist in a prison-like setting using dull colors to make the audience feel sympathetic and suggest the required hard work.
3) Justin Timberlake's "Suit & Tie" album cover simply shows the upper half of a black, white, and red suit to represent the high-class impression of the R&B album and appeal to its target audience of ages 15-30.

Measure Up! Pitch Presentation
The document discusses two people, Tiff and Iskra. It mentions their names but provides no other details about them or what the document is about. The document is too short to extract any meaningful information beyond the names mentioned.
Magazine Analysis - Jess Pardoe
The document provides an analysis of magazine covers, contents pages, and double page spreads from various music and fashion magazines. Key points summarized:
1. Magazine covers are analyzed for color palette, font, image composition and how they represent the musical genre. Simplistic color schemes with 3-4 colors are most suitable for music magazines.
2. Contents pages organize information through section headers and discreet text listings. Images can attract readers if they take up 1/3 of the page.
3. Double page spreads examined layout, color palette, title/quote placement, and how photos represent the musical artist. Larger center images with minimal surrounding text look most like music magazine style.
Album Poster Analysis
This document analyzes and summarizes several music posters to gather inspiration for designing a poster for the band The Skeleton Boys. It discusses posters for the bands Foals, Marina & The Diamonds, and All Time Low. Key aspects discussed include font choice, image selection, color schemes, layout of text, and how the posters fit the style and image of each band.
Evaluation q5
The document discusses the design choices made for a magazine cover, including the use of a studded title font, Arial Narrow font against a black background, placement of barcode and pricing information, incorporation of brick patterns and color scheme throughout the cover and inside pages, sizing of the main photograph, and how the photograph and colors appeal to the target audience and fit the theme of indie acoustic music. The designer expresses liking the overall layout and feeling the magazine could be successful alongside similar publications but on a smaller scale initially.
5) of evaluation
I used Twitter and Facebook to promote my magazine and solicit feedback. On Twitter, people responded positively to the cover, contents, and layout. On Facebook, people complimented the outdoor photography and bright colors. I also used my school's Blogger site to ask for comments on my final draft from other students. Overall, social media helped attract an audience and confirm that my magazine fit the intended genre.
Final - Font Change
This document discusses changing the font style for the header titles of a magazine. The author has considered two dotted font styles - a square dotted font and a circular dotted font - for the headers, finding the circular one clearer. The chosen circular dotted font will be used for the front cover title and contents page title, while regular font will be used for articles and other text.
Test shots
The photographer took test shots of band members in pairs to include in a draft magazine layout. They experimented with close-up and long-distance shots using a self-timer to capture different band members together. These test photos will help provide variation in shots for the final magazine production.
Other test shots
The document discusses test shots taken by the photographer to experiment with different hair colors and camera techniques for inclusion in band photos for a music magazine. The photographer used a tripod to take self-portraits with red, purple-tinted, and blonde hair to see if the effect would work well. One idea was to include an acoustic guitar in the pupil of an eye on the magazine cover to indicate it is music-focused. The photographer will need to check visibility at print size.
Cover test shots
The photographer took test shots of a 17-year-old model against a white background for easy Photoshop editing. The model will be featured on the magazine cover as part of a band that will have additional photos inside. The photographer tried various close-up shots and favors the last one showing half the model's face to attract attention to the eye. The photos will be edited in Photoshop to match the magazine's color scheme.
Colour Palette
This document outlines a color palette for a magazine. The color scheme is based around greyscales with bold purple and blue used to contrast, as the model has purple hair and blue eyes. These colors will be used on the cover and interior double page spread featuring the model. Orange and red may also be added to the contents page to vary the colors from just the main five. Examples from other magazines show the type of contrasting color combinations, including black and white photos with splashes of color.
Font title
The document discusses font and title research for a magazine called "Rewind" that focuses on music and fashion. It analyzes four favorite fonts, with a preference for a retro American style. The name "Rewind" connects to ideas of rewinding time in music and fashion. The title font will be white to stand out against colorful cover images, sized across the top like other magazines to create an eye-catching title.
Moodboard
The mood board shows covers from iD magazine that feature a single eye for inspiration. Bright bold colors and layouts with a single spanning image across double page spreads are also noted. Contents pages from music and fashion magazines provide ideas, including borders with images of interior content from ELLE and an abstract blue-black-white layout from Billboard.
Audience Profile
This document profiles a young, creative audience between 16-25 years old who listens to music regularly, particularly indie and alternative genres. They enjoy going to music festivals and concerts, are inspired by bands like Arctic Monkeys and Mumford & Sons, and have interests in both music and fashion as shown by their idolization of music/fashion icons and keeping up with media through magazine reading.
Analysis of magazine finished
This document analyzes magazine covers and double page spreads. It discusses elements like consistent color palettes, placement of titles, dates, and barcodes. It notes how covers attract attention through prominent images of famous people and eye-catching designs. Double page spreads are examined for continuity of images, fonts, and themes across the two pages. Consistency in visual elements is highlighted as important for linking different parts of a magazine issue.
Flowchart of Production
The document outlines the different stages of film production and compares the process for three different types of production companies: Working Title (a large conglomerate), Warp Films (an independent British company), and American Hollywood studios. It discusses the ideas, financing, scripting, casting, shooting, post-production, marketing, release, and profits for films produced by each type of company. The major differences are that Working Title has abundant funding from its parent conglomerate, while Warp Films has a very limited budget as an independent company and must carefully plan every aspect, and American studios have virtually unlimited budgets to produce big-budget blockbusters with top talent and effects.
Evaluation of magazine prelim
The document summarizes the preliminary work done for the front cover and contents page of a student magazine about fashion in college. For the front cover, the model is dressed casually to represent school fashion and holds a perfume bottle to represent fashion brands. The title is prominently displayed at the top in an eye-catching font. For the contents page, the same font and color scheme of grey is used to provide continuity. It features photos of two outfits and edits the model to appear balancing on a letter or holding a sign about an interview. The page ideas and pale blue bullet points were inspired by recent events at the student's college.
Binary opposites
This document discusses various binary opposites and comparisons between different groups and concepts, including:
- Males and females are both portrayed as perfect in media to appeal to audiences.
- Older and younger people have different life experiences and ways of thinking due to changes over time.
- Ethnicity does not determine success or popularity in media and sports, only talent matters.
- Attitudes toward public displays of same-sex affection are still judgmental for most people.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Storm Thorgerson
- 1. Storm Thorgerson Artwork - Prints Jess Pardoe
- 2. Jess Pardoe
- 3. Storm Thorgerson is most famous for his album cover designs, the circular design on the left is a Pink Floyd cover. It shows almost a cycle of different elements of the earth around the edge with a pupil and iris of an eye acting as a planet in the centre; the other circular object on the eye image represents another planet. The colour scheme is pretty basic, consisting of earthly tones and blues to contrast these. The Wombats cover above was only released this year, 2011, and is an extremely well known album cover due to the bands escalating audience. Thorgerson has done a lot of artwork prints on the beach and in outdoor settings. I would like to incorporate this into one of my drafts to have a go at his style of imagery. Although I will also take some images inside to counteract Thorgerson’s style of working. Biffy Clyro’s album cover is a famous piece of art by Storm Thorgerson, it is recognised by most people who listen to the indie/alternative/rock genres; the symbolic use of red and blue against a white background contrast yet compliment each other well. It is clear that Thorgerson’s favourite uses of colour are blue and red as shown throughout the three album covers shown on this slide. Jess Pardoe
- 4. I really like Thorgerson’s style of working and I will take inspiration from his art but add my own twist by incorporating the bands personality to them. My designs will be nowhere near as extravagant and abstract at his work however; I am looking for a much more subtle tone of art for my final design however I will take some of the editing techniques into consideration. Jess Pardoe
