Evaluation Plans

For evaluation question 1, I plan to use a 9 key frame analysis from my music video describing how my final product conformed and challenged the conventions of real media products. I will do this in the style of a PowerPoint/slideshare with pictures for each frame showing how my final product challenged or conformed followed by an analytical paragraph underneath.

For evaluation question 2 I plan to use Glogster as the format for my question. I will incorporate different images and my final video onto the page and make comparisons in the form of text in boxes around each of the images.

For evaluation question 3, I plan to use Powtoon to make a short video displaying our audience feedback and then commenting on what this meant to me and how I took it on board.

For evaluation question 4, I plan to use bubbl.us to create a mind map of all the different technologies I have used over the course.

Production Diary Log 2

Ed Sheeran - Lego House

This is the video for Ed Sheeran's Lego House. I only really watched the video properly today and was touched by the narrative that lies behind the song. I think that the video is a big eye opener into the lives of many fans nowadays and really shows how Dyer's star theory can be expressed visually. I like the fact that Rupert Grint was used as the fan as he is physically similar to Ed Sheeran which therefore made the idea of a fandom more realistic and more understandable.

Website Feedback

Website 'Tour'

For the 'Tour' page, again I kept the layout and colour scheme the same, but put the title in a bigger font. I did this because the tour is one of the most important things an artist has to promote, to get a bigger fan base and a bigger target audience. - Indya

Website 'Latest News'

For the 'Latest News' page, I used the album cover to show that the album was being released, and the signature to show the photoshoot. I used these images because I've seen other websites do the same, as it makes the consumer more aware of the artists 'life'. - Indya

Website 'Merchandise'

I had slight difficulties with the merchandise that Fatima made as some of them wouldn't upload, which was really annoying. The ones that did upload looked really good and worked well with the colours and the logo. When you click on the picture a shopping basket comes up and you have the choice of choosing more than, which looks really good. - Indya

Website 'Gallery'

For the 'Gallery', I chose 9 pictures from the 'behind the scenes' photoshoot as they looked really good. They came with the option to label them so I came up with short, generic titles, that made looking through the Gallery enjoyable.
I chose the ones with Chloe in so that the consumer is mainly focused on her and the album release. - Indya

Website 'About Me'

For the 'About Me' page, I wanted to keep it simple, so I decided to keep everything the same. I wrote a little bit about the artist, which is always interesting for the consumer, as they like to know how they started off and the progression of unfamous to famous so that they can relate to the artist. This then gets the artists more fans. Using the signature, makes it seem more authentic to the consumer, as they feel like the artist cares about them. - Indya

Website Video

This is a short clip showing the work that Indya put into creating our website. I think our website looks really good and the colour scheme that has been used is similar to that of the digipak meaning there is more meaning into each of the texts. I also like how she has created a sign up box at the bottom and the social network tool bar at the top also shows to have a positive impact, especially as it focuses on the target audience for this particular platform and also for our target audience in general

Rough Edit Feedback

This was the feedback we got from the rough edit. It was great to see that our audience enjoyed our video and also helpful to see the different ways that they think our product could be improved. Based on this feedback, particularly that from 'bigboirl' I cut down the length of our song from around 4 minutes to around 3 so that the amount of footage lasted as long as the song. I think that this has improved our video and means that the audience can stay more involved with the video as it does not drag on.

Digipak Feedback

 

Abi created a Facebook group as a way of getting to people's feedback about our digipak. Following this, she was able to get a few comments which were enough for us to get some ideas about how we could improve and also what went well. The use of the Facebook group has been really useful for our work and I think it was great thinking on behalf of Abi to do this!

Final Digipak

 

 

This is our final digipak in which Abi made. It uses images of the artist to promote her and show the audience that she is the focus for the music. We prefer the 4 panel choice as it looks clearer and not over crowded with pictures with too much to focus on. I like our digipak as I think the colour scheme fits really nicely. The grey and the pink work well together and the enhancing of the lips also makes the image look really effective and well matched with the rest of the design.

Changing our Digipak

Instead of creating a 6 panel digipak, we have decided to create a 4 panel digipak. This is because
 we felt that the 6 panels were beginning to look over crowded and too many pictures were being added to it that it just did not have the right appeal anymore. Now with the smaller 4 panel digipak, we are able to express the artist is a clear and concise way which is straight to the point and also looks very attractive.

Final Piece

Digipak

This is our digipak so far. Images of the artist have been added onto the panels to promote her and her album/songs. More images will be added to make the complete product.
