Cd Cover Back 1

As I made a CD cover front, I needed to make a CD cover back. In order to make my products uniform, I decided to use a similar picture so that it is obvious that my CD front and back look consistant. I decided to use an image that featured my actress to one side, to ensure that there was enough room for my text. Also, I made the glows alternate between black and white so that my colour scheme and image really link. I will now seek feedback from my target audience to see what they believe I can do to improve my products further.

Feedback:

Becky Mahan- I really like the colour scheme and how the purple writing links in with the top but I cant really read the words that have a black glow which means that it wouldnt stand out and catch the audience's eye. The picture and the background are really nice and link in well with the back of the cd and the front of the cd.

Meg Marlow- I really like the white glow around the writing as it makes stand out and will catch the audiences eye over the other products on the shelf. I feel that the picture is bright and the main thing on the CD. I dont like the purple and black writing as I cant see it.

Amy Pass- I think that the background is nice and looks good with the picture on. This gives the picture more edge and it is more interesting then the background being plain. The purple writing and white glow goes really well and the picture and the writing link together. This will also link with the other products.

Rachel Hilton- I think that it is really cool and the colours link really well. The layout of the CD back cover makes a boarder around the picture which means the picture stands out more. However, I feel that all the text should be the same so that the all catch the eye together. This is because some text catches the eye easier than the other.

Cate Triner- I really like the back cover. I feel that is intriguing and makes you want to buy the album. Looking at the other products it links in well as the colours all link together. On the other hand some of the words are hard to read and the black glow should be changed.

I will take into account the feedback from my target audience and make the changes in which my target audience have suggested.

CD Cover Front Final

Here is my final CD cover as I have made all of the changes to my CD cover that my target audience felt necessary. However, at a later date I may ask for feedback on my cover, or, if I decide that I dont like it I will furthermore make any suitable changes.

CD Cover Front 4

My previous feedback stated that my target audience felt that my poster had too many gaps and that I should return my song title text to how it was originally placed, I took into account this feedback and tried my CD cover with the new suggestions in place.

Feedback:

Meg Marlow- I think that the placing of the artist's name looks much better now that it is smaller and placed closer to the actress.

Alex Machin- I feel that the song title seems much bigger in this format. I would try it in a smaller font first, and if the font still seems unproportional to the rest of the CD cover.

Sarah Hall- I think that the artist's name is big enough to catch attention, but is not distracting from the actress. I would consider making your song title a bit

CD Cover Front 3

After my feedback from my last CD cover stated that the layout wasa bit too unconventional, I decided to rearrange my CD cover again.

Feedback:

Amy Pass- I like this CD cover, however I feel that the gap below your 'Lady GaGa' text is too big, so I would consider bring your text down a little, or alternatively putting something there.

Alex Machin- I would consider trying 'Boys Boys Boys' across the bottom now that your text displaying your artists name is smaller, as it may look it proportion

Rachel Hilton- I think that your artists name is too far in the corner, I feel that it is too close to the edge and too high. I would bring it in a little more and move it down to make your CD cover appear more full.

Sarah Hall- I do like the CD cover, however I would experiment by moving your text anlong the bottom and I would also consider filling some of the gaps in the background.

I will take into account this feedback and make any appropriate changes.



CD Cover Front 2

After receiving feedback for my previous CD cover, I decided that I needed to experiment with different layouts, therefore for this front cover I have moved around the components of my CD cover.

I moved the title of the song into the top left corner, and moved the artists name into the bottom right. This movement has changed my CD Front Cover from conventional to unconventional, as the artist is usually seen at the top.

I will now seek feedback from my target audience to see what they think of my CD cover and what they can suggest will make it better.

Feedback:

Amy Pass- As I said before, I do like the image used, and I also like the colour scheme. I do think that the artist's name looks better now that it is smaller, although I am not too sure on the layout. I think that the artist's name would look better at the top.

Alex Machin- The artists name looks better at the top as the rest of your products are conventional and this CD cover isn't therefore, to improve uniformity I would make your "Lady GaGa" at the top of the CD cover so that that is the first thing that catches your audience's eye.

Rachel Hilton- I like how the song title is more central, instead of being in a long line, as it was in your previous CD cover. However, I do agree with the other comments and that your song title would look better at the bottom.

Meg Marlow- I think that this CD cover would look better if it was made more conventional as it seems too 'odd' to be unconventional and just looks strange to an extent

Video feedback for my music video

Video

This is my first draft of my music video, I have looked at pop conventions, and as I was hoping to make a conventional video, I have hopefully made my video obviously pop. I feel that this video could be improved if the transitions were smoother and the cuts weren't so harsh.
