- 1. YOUR MUSIC PROMOTIONAL PACKAGE USE, DEVELOP OR CHALLENGE THE FORMS AND CONVENTIONS OF EXISTING PROMO PACKAGES? JOSEPH GIGGS, ROB ANTHONY, CURTIS ROBERTS
- 2. DIGIPAK- HOW WE CONFORMED TO CONVENTIONS • Using an image of our protagonist on the front cover of the Digipak. (star image) • Using a continual colour scheme of red and blue. (through the use of lighting) • Including the name of the song in large text, as well as the band name and song/album name on the spine. • Creating a visually interesting image • A shot which is also present within our music video • Use of a bar code and branding with copyright information on the back cover • Font similar to that used by Cage The Elephant
- 3. DIGIPAK- HOW WE CHALLENGED/SUBVERTED FROM CONVENTIONS • Using the band name on the back cover instead of the front as we felt the simplicity suited the design, also our chosen band used heavily featured disjuncture. • Using one image for the front and back cover to create an interesting overall image and album artwork. • We did not include the track listings on the back as we felt the powerful image needed to be simple and not covered by text. • No images of the band on the artwork as they were not featured within our music video.
- 4. MAGAZINE ADVERT- HOW WE CONFORMED TO/SUBVERTED THE CONVENTIONS Conformed• Use of Band name, Album name, Release Date and record company. • Using an enlarged version of the Front Cover from our Digipak. • Use of the same font/text from our Digipak. • Use of Record Company’s Logo. Subverted• No band is seen within our Magazine Advert. • Limited release date/information • We didn’t include a profile shot of our protagonist to enforce his star image and directly address his audience instead we kept with a powerful image to create a visually interesting image.
