Print Advert

 
 
My Print Advert I created on photoshop. I took the images for it of my horse on the beach, as that is my idea for mny music video, this way i am clearly advertising what i am going to be showing in my music video. I wanted to keep the text simple as it fit well with the imagery and i wanted all the focus on the images, a reason why i put the colouring in black and white so certain  areas were highlighted more than others, like the horses eye for example. I placed a heart above the I in Charlie, to add a personal touch, because after reseaching some advertisements most artists added a peronal touch to their name. 

Inside of Digipack


The inside of my digipack was created on photoshop, its just images of the setting of where my main music video is going to take place. This I thought was effective as once again it keeps things simple and keeps most of the focus on the main imagery, a reason why I didnt place any text on the inside of my digipack.

Digipack




My Digi-pack I created on Photoshop, the images I took myself. I really like the front cover as I think it will attract the audience due to the colours and the way they bounce of each other. I put it in Black and White to begin with then changed the opacity slightly, then changed the auto tone and contrast in order to add that slightly orange effect in the background. The reason I did this was to make the horse really stand out against the water and at least have one bold part of colouring in order to bring out the whole image.
The back of my Digi-pack I used the same colour effects in order to have that bright light coming through from the background again. You can almost see what looks like a camera error (the ball of light on the horse near the top) but I thought gave it effect and sometimes that works in images so I left it. The Horses eye looks slightly glazy but I thought this fit well with the whole overlook of the image.
The text on both of them I kept simple as then all the focus is on the images, I just slightly added a border around the white text in order to make it stand out more, also highlight the main parts. I only put the artist’s first name, as I thought it looked more professional as after researching different CD covers, a lot of artists did this.

Animation Task



This animation task I found really interesting as I learnt techniques that I have never used before. It was also an experience as I didnt realise you could do so much to just one picture. By the time I had a few attempts with different images I felt really confident doing it, proving to be a really sucessful and useful task.

Cutting To Time Task



The cutting to time task will be useful when creating any music video as I think its a skill you will always need to know. It was an experience as you had to take the images yourself then create a video out of them, but at the same time it had to look proffesional. Cutting it to the music to begin with I found fairly difficult, but by the end of it I found it fairly easy and experimented with different ways of doing it.
