Draft Digipak

Overall I am not that happy with my final design for the digipak as I didn't plan it enough before hand and did not take enough photographs. This meant that I had to use stills from the filming that I did and they came out blurry and really didn't look too great. I love the front of the album as it looks a lot more professional whereas as the rest does not. From this I know that I need to make sure when filming I should take a lot more photos to involved in my digipak. 

Also when i edited the album cover it was originally from the same photo as my magazine advert, I used an online editing site called Picnik as well as photoshop. I was very happy with both my magazine cover and album cover but when it came to doing the other pages I became stuck as I wasn't sure of the effects I had used to make it look so professional, therefore it was difficult to try and match the other pages. From this I will make sure that next time I write down everything I use on both photoshop and picnik so that I know what to do if I leave something a bit longer or something accidentally gets deleted. 

Draft Magazine Advert

I am pleased with this draft of my magazine advert because the effects look cool and the fonts interesting. I think that it looks like a real magazine advert and I have asked friends and family who also think that it looks real. I would like to make it look a bit more summery, brighter and happier, whereas the at the minute it is a bit gloomy, therefore it would match the theme of the song and album a bit more. I may take more photos instead of using this photo as I need new photos for my digipak anyway, as the images on my draft were poor and desperately needed improving.

Very Rough Edit - Sunshine

When I started to gather together my footage and edit it into my video, I quickly noticed that I was not going to have enough shots to make the video look proffesional. So I rushed my video and made it so simple and basic then uploaded to meet the deadline. I knew that with what I had I couldn't make the video that good, therefore I am not very happy with the way my rough edit turned out. I don't think that it reflects how well I can in media, I'm definitely looking forward to refilming my video and making it a lot better quality. [Video Link]

Magazine Mock-Up

This is a mock up of my magazine advert which matches the style of my digipak album cover. The silhouette of people will preferably be the two characters from the video laying in the grass. The lighting on this mock up is wrong as it is difficult to read the words at the top, for my real magazine advert I will make the comments at the top bigger so that they're visible. I also think that there are quite a lot of gaps in the poster so maybe adding daisies or other flowers around the edge will fill in the spaces. When making my digipak I will think of the way I have designed this magazine so that they're similar looking and recognisable together.
