Evaluation Question from naomipalfreman36

Here i have evaluated my products in terms of digital technologies used for research, planning, production and evaluation. 
This is evaluation question four.

Here is my evaluation question: What have you learned from your audience feedback?

EVALUATION QUESTION 2:

Question One: In What Ways Does Your Media Product Use, Develop or Challenge Forms and Conventions of Real...

Here is my final music video.

Here is the second draft of the music video we created. This is  a work in progress, and therefore from this we aim to gather a wide range of audience feedback leading us to making influenced changes that will further improve the music video.

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK ON DRAFT ONE MUSIC VIDEO:

"I really liked this music video. It obviously is too short however the elements you have are good. I think the beginning is faulty though because the lengths of close ups of each individual is not regular, so the rhythm is not on synch."

" You managed to capture a wide range of individuals so it targeted a variety of audience members of specific ages that would be attracted to this, as the song discusses issues of a teenage age range. It is arguably relatable to social issues as well."

MUSIC VIDEO - FIRST DRAFT

Music video from naomipalfreman36

Here is a deconstruction of the shots we took during our first two days filming for our music video. I have evaluated some of the clips to asses their validity to be used throughout our music video. It is important that I ensure that all footage is of a high standard, demonstrating both camera and editing skills, as well as being corformative to both the song and genre of music- ours being indie pop.

Here I have gathered audience feedback on my album cover. This is useful in aiding me to know what features I should change, and what features should stay the same.

From this feedback, i have established that the album cover is visually pleasing and of a high standard that appeals to my target audience.

Here is a screenshot of a post I added to my social media site Facebook. In this post I asked my friend list to give me any useful feedback from my product. This is a good way to gain audience feedback, as not only does it enable me to gain feedback from a wide variety of people, whom are on my friends list, but it also allows me to get feedback from our target audience age range as a lot of teenagers between the ages 15-18 years are frequent users of these sites and therefore will be witness to this post giving us the most profitably feedback possible.

Contact sheet analysis deisgn from naomipalfreman36

Here is the contact sheet produced in preparation for choosing the images for our album cover. This is important as I need to ensure that the image I take forward for this product is firstly conformative of the Indie pop genre, but also conventions to typical inclusions on other successful media products,

For each image I have given a analysis of both the positive and negative aspects of it, to ensure that the best image is chosen to represent my product.

Here is a copy of an email I received from my teacher, giving me feedback on my magazine advertisement. This really aided me in ensuring that all the necessary conventions were present.

Based on this feedback, and other positive feedback from the rest of my customer feedback, I have established that my product is successful and professional and therefore ready to be branded in this way.

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK ON MAGAZINE ADVERTISEMENT:

Sarah " I really like this product. I love the idea of having the album cover on the top half as I feel this strengthens the overall brand and enables me personally to link the two products (album cover and this) together which is really good. I also like the tear effect separating the album cover from the main image, as this fits with the rebellious nature of youths/cool kids which fits with your song.

Jana " This whole design is really good. I love the colour scheme used, and it is the same that was used for your album cover which is really good and keeps all your products in sync. I think you could maybe extend the space for the middle text, however other than that I think it is overall a fabulous product and I would be attracted to it"

Nancy " This whole product is great. I love the use of your logo on the background section it the information, as i feel this strengthens your brand. I also really like the inclusion of the tear effect, as this is rebellious which fits with your song. You could possibly make the tear effect thicker to make it even more noticeable. Other than that I think its a really good product.

Aziza " This overall product is so so great. I love the consistency of the two products (album cover and magazine advertisement) and i like the fact that the album cover is at the top of the page and reappears at the bottom of the page, leading to consistency. I love the colour scheme used, especially because the bright red resembles free spiritness and stuff which is closely linked to your indie pop genre. Overall this is such a great product and I personally think its very confoamtive of other magazine advertisements on today's market at the moment.

FINAL MUSIC MAGAZINE ADVERTISEMENT:

In this presentation I have outlined the steps and processes I went through in order to produce my final magazine music advertisement. This is important, both so that I can identify the skills I have learned throughout the process, but to also ensure that my inclusion of certain conventions is both conformative of my indie pop genre and target audience preferences.

The final slide includes pictures of my final product, along with customer feedback from people conformative of my target audience. This will aid me in making any appropriate changes to my product and when it comes to evaluating its success.

Typography and logo for ninth outcast from naomipalfreman36

The typography for my magazine advertisement is the same as that for my Album cover.
To produce this I used a black sharpie marker pen, on A3 poster paper, to get the achieved look. It was tricky because I had to ensure that all my typography looked the same, and was In synch with the typography used in my album cover, so that all products are corresponding.

Here is the typography that I produced using the black sharpie marker pen. The typography I included was conformative of the indie pop genre, as it resembled youth handwriting, further emphasising my target audience as well as the rebellious nature of the indie pop genre.

 

In addition this text is the same as the text included on my album cover, even though I wrote them on different days. This is very important as it ensures that my products, all look the same and fit together.

The information included in the typography is conformative of the typical conventions of magazine album cover, for example, tour dates is a common feature of all magazine advertisements. This will make my product look more realistic and professional further strengthening my overall product.

 

Treatment for Magazine Advertisement

Magazine flat from naomipalfreman36

Here I have produced four flat plans, all designed as an aid in me deciding my preferred layout for my magazine advertisement. From these flat plans I have asked people conformatiove of my target audience to look at them and tell me which one they feel would be most effective representing my product, along side my chosen image. This is taking into account that my chosen image is the same one as the one demonstrated on my album cover.

When i come to producing my album cover, i can refer back to these flat plans to aid me in ensuring that all the necessary features and conventions are present on my magazine advertisement to ensure it is successful and appealing for my target audience.

After referring to my target audience feedback I have decided that the image of which i will use for my magazine advertisement is this one. However this means it is the same as the one I used for my album cover, leading me to question the inclusion of the album cover as a feature of my magazine advertisement to further the sync of my products.
