Plumtree

Lucy,
Your ancillaries have a really good sense of continuity with each other and the video and you have used the images really well. Your evaluation gives a good indication of the programs you will use and the general content so as soon as your practical tasks are completed you can add all the relevant details and analysis.

      Artist Website Second Draft

      For the second draft of my artist website I wanted to show a development in the design and style that had already been seen in the music video and digipak. Mostly, I wanted to add colour and so I kept a similar layout but drastically changed the colours I had chosen.

      I think that overall the use of colour was a good step towards a finished website but it needs to be drawn back so that it is less glaring for the audience and fits better with my genre and the artist that I have chosen.





      Digipak Second Draft

      For my second draft of my digipak, I wanted to use colour and images of my artist. The absence of these two elements in my first draft made it seem unrealistic and untrue to a real CD digipak.

      I went out and took photos of my artist for the digipak, making sure that I got a good range of shots to choose from as well as considering the lighting and colouring of these shots.

      Overall I included more of my artist on the digipak and the use of colour was liked more by my audience. I also continued this use of colour onto the second draft of my artist website.






      Music Video Second Draft

      For the second draft of my music video, I used my teacher's feedback and made some changes. I decided to experiment with the filters on the video, using them to tell the narrative better by having the video transition from colour to black and white.
