Evaluation 2: How efffctive is the combination of your main product and ancillary

The pictures above are my finalised album pictures. i designed my covers off the back of the style of the shooting stars music video. i wanted to link both the digi pack images and the Shooting Stars music video. i wanted to create an expectation for the audience before the start to listen to the music. all of the pictures were created on different programs. all were finalised on Adobe Photoshop. i researched into other albums and found that artists covers differ from linking in with there genre and style of the album and some that didn't, i tried to find the middle ground creating a slight juxtaposition between there music video and album covers.

Before designing my album digi pack, i used the influence of my chosen song shooting stars to gain an idea of how to design my pictures. By using the sound and the genre of the music i was able to gain an idea of what people may expect the pictures and design to be. With this in mind i realised that song was slow and peaceful, therefore i wanted to create a carm and gentle picture for the covers.

I thought about making shooting stars the leading title of the album, but after i started in the designing stage i found that the idea of a shooting star was to cliche and had been done before, therefore i decided to make the album to be completed different from my music video. i then decided to use a quote, "the only easy day was yesterday". I then designed my final front, back and inside covers to my digi pack. with this the audience seeing the digi pack can gain an idea for what type of music is on the album, this corresponding with shooting stars music video.
