FINAL SIGN OFF!

This has been a very fun project to work on. I enjoyed working with my classmates alongside my group members (Monika, Pree and Natalya). It has been fun getting to know them more and not only are we classmates, but we are now friends.  I would like to thanks Rebecca and Louisa for helping me with everything from the early stages right to the very last moment. I hope all my hard work has payed off and I hope the next stages of media will be just as fun!

Final Sign off - Bye!

This is my final blog post. I hope my hard work has payed off and I want to thank all of the media staff (especially Louisa and Rebecca) for supporting me throughout my academic year.  I am appreciative to have been part of a co-operative group, with lovely students (Monika, Pree, Tasmina). 
I am optimistic about the next stage of this media course, and I intend to continue broadening my knowledge.

FINAL SIGN OFF!!!

As this is my final post on this blog, I am happy to say that I have really enjoyed this project and the amount of hours spent doing the tasks, research and media products over the last 6 months has really benefited me. I would like to thank all the teachers, and Group 3 for all the help I needed throughout the year so far. 
Let the next part of this course be as eventful as it started!

FINAL SIGN OFF

I am so happy to say that this blog is finally closed. I hope that all my hard work and long hours at night spent on homework will pay off.😌 I wouldn't have done so much without the my group and my teachers who supported me and gave me feedback troughout this coursework. 💓
As one part is finished it's time to move on onto the other one - exam (hello sleepless nights once again).

BHC 3

This is my final feedback on my blog throughout this coursework. I have finally achieved grade A, however, I will do my best to improve my blog in these couple of weeks in order for my marks to go higher than 17 as it would give me a greater opportunity of getting a higher grade overall.

Blogging Health Check 3


Since the last health check, I went down a mark as I have been a bit behind on my work. Since then,  I've uploaded my ancillary and finished of the evaluation. I have also filled in the missing blogs that I was told to improve.

Audience feedback using Survey Monkey


Created using Visme. The Free Online Presentation Tool.




From this survey I found out that my synergy did work well but my audience just wanted to see more of it. So overall it was successful.

AUDIENCE RESPONSE TO DIGIPAK

I received similar comments about my digipak:
This was to actually show where I would place an image of the artist and what kind of image I would use. For instance, would it be an image of the whole face or a half face picture of the artist. Also, what kind of shot I would use (mid shot, close up etc).
Also, the idea of actually inserting the text was good as it gave an idea of the size I would be using.





AUDIENCE RESPONSE TO FLAT PLAN

I received the same comments from my audience:
They felt as though the website was good and it was detailed, however if there was more information about different songs by the artist and the albums, it would make it seem like an actual website. This makes it more detailed and makes the artist look professional.

DIGIPAK LAYOUT







Photoshop Tutorial (Digipak ancillary)

PHOTOSHOP TUTORIAL


I started the tutorial by selecting a background image for my template.


I then added my artist image, used the quick selection tool to select the artist and cutout the background and put it onto the background.


After that, I changed the colour of the image and added text.


This is the final product.

Photoshop Tutorial

I started off by adding a background image onto photoshop. 

I then added my artist onto photoshop and had to cut out the background to blend it into the cover.

I then added a text of my artists name which was "sky".

I chose was font I wanted to use that suited my artist and the background

After I edited the picture of my artist to make it less harsh and blend it into the cover.

This was the final image of my CD cover.
