Note to Moderator

Dear Sir/Madam, As part of my A2 coursework I was asked to produce a promotional package that was based on a music video to a song of our choice; we chose 'Glamorous' by Fergie. As part of my promotional package, I was required to design two ancillary tasks which included a digipak and an advertising poster. I did both the ancillary tasks on my own but worked with Leah Walton and Rebecca Halsted on the construction of our final music video. Please use the labels to navigate through my blog. I hope you enjoy! Chloe McAree Candidate number:6125 Edgbarrow School Centre Number: 5111

Digipak 1st draft


Progress

At the moment, I'm just playing around with different effects and styles to try and establish what style I want to go for. I am also familiarising myself with the photo manipulation software so that I can get the effects I want. I am aware that I need to stick to some soert of house style meaning a colour scheme and font types etc.

Digipak Photoshoot

Overall, we took around 100 photo's all together and then we filtered through them and deleted blurry ones and ones that we were not likely to use for our individual digipaks. We tried to take as many as possible at different varieties of shot types to give a wide range of shots to choose from. We also included props such as a love sign to add to the glamorous theme.
We experimented with different light sources to hopefully get the effect of a real photo shoot. This would make the pictures look professional and make them easier to edit with effects such as filters and photoshop.
Here are some of the photos I have picked out to best represent the image and personality we are trying to portray of our artist and the track 'Glamorous':
