Evaluation Qu 4

Below I have created a Prezi clearly showing all the different technology I have used throughout the research, planning, construction and evaluation of this project. I have written about what I used the technology for and the positives and negatives about it. The development of web 2.0 has been extremely useful, enabling me to easily access my target audience on social networking sites, specifically facebook. As well as using youtbe, a very popular video sharing site to view existing videos and upload mine. Furthermore, it has allowed me to use different presentation websites like prezi, slideshare and wordle, in order to enable my blog to become more interesing and varied.

I created this to clearly show some of the different technologies that I used during this project...

Evaluation Qu 3

Evaluation Q3 from Kaylee1234
The above slideshare presentation shows what I have learnt from all of my audience feedback. The audience fedback I gained through the duration of this project include polls, social networking, talking with friends/peers and showing my product to different classes. I have clearly showed the progression of my pages and have discussed how gaining audience feedback has helped to me improve my products. Audience feedback has been greatly useful to me and has enabled me to create products that are successful and appealing to the target audience.  

Evaluation Qu 2

In the prezi below, I have explained the different ways in which my products link together. Including colours, fonts, images, props, clothing and promotion...
Here I have filmed my target audience talking about the ways in which they believe my products link together...

The above audience feedback shows that I have been successful in creating products that combine and link well to one another. Everyone managed to pick up on different features of which make the products link together including, the guitar, use of colours, brick walls, text/font etc, therefore showing that the combination of my products is very effective.

Evaluation Qu 1

In the slideshow below I have explored that ways in which all my products use, devlop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products...

Here I have created a comic briefly showing the production stages...

Here I have placed my ancillary products with real media products in order to see whether it fits well with existing products or not...

 

From doing product placement, I feel that it clearly shows whether my products fit the genre of music well. I have placed both my magazine promotions in Q magazine. I belive that they both fit fairly well and would stand out well in the magazine. I believe the simplicity of the promotions helps to make them stand out, as well as the clear, bold font that is used. I also placed a copy of my digipak cover with some existing CD's. I placed it next to bands who come under the same genre such as The Script and Biffy Clyro. This again allows me to see whether it looks eye catching and would stand out on a shelf. I believe that the cover works well and would be attracting to the target audience if it was to be released for real.

Final Products

Above are my final products for this project. I feel by presenting it like this, I was clearly able to see whether all my products work well together. To see a larger version of the products, click on the images.

Magazine Promotions 1st Draft

I decided to show my magazine promotion to my class, again to get some feedback about what my target audience think about it. I feel it is very useful to do as there is no point creating a product that will not appeal to your target audience. I was able to gain some positive and negative feedback about my product.

Album Magazine Promotion.
Postives:
- like the image composition
- think the eye contact works really well
- like the consistent sepia tone of the images
- inclusion of the album cover in the bottom corner
- clear release date
- continuous font used for artist name throughout products
Negatives:
- add star ratings from alternstive rock magazines magazine
- possibly have the release date slightly larger

Tour Poster. 

Positives:

- good, strong image

- nice sepia tone to the image again

- inclusion of guitar works well to show his passion for his music

- clear and easy to read font

- inclusion of the album cover in the bottom corner works well

- like the use of brick walls in each of the products

Negatives:

- 'like we used to' at the bottom, is quite difficult to read
- maybe make the album cover slightly bigger, similar size to the album cover on the album magazine promotion
- could add jono official website address






These quicktime videos show me making some of the changes to my posters. This helps to clearly show the features that I have then gone on to add or change. Including the addition of star magazine award, jono.co.uk, larger album cover and making the background lighter...

DigiPak 1st Draft

I showed by digipak to the class, in order to get other peoples opinions about whether they believe it works well or not.
Positives:
-like the sepia tone that runs throughout the digipak
-use of the brick wall, which is present in every image and agains is consistent within the digipak
-think the eye contact is good and helps to draw people in well
-like how 'Jono' has an outer glow to it
-believed it looks very consistent and all images work well together
-like how their is space for a CD, showing how it is all laid out
-inclusion of guitar, helping to link it to the video well
Negatives:
-the note from the artist is quite hard to read so maybe change the font
-their is a sticker on the back of the guitar, which is visible in the image of his feet
-add a barcode to the back

From this, I am going to take all feedback into consideration and make changes that I feel are necessary. Most of the comments I recieved were postive, showing that my product is fairly successful and I am going to make some changes to make it even more appealing to my target audience.

In the quicktime video below, it shows me making some of the changes to my digipak. This helps to make it more appealing for the target audience and shows that I took their feedback into consideration
