14th reflection - our magazine advert

In today's lesson we are trying to put two pictures into the digi-pack template and re-arranging them accordingly. However in the end we decided one of the pictures was better for the magazine advert.

We also still haven't decided on the fonts to use in our digi-pack. This means that we are still looking at fonts to use.

Above shows that we finally made a start on the magazine advert. It also shows at the bottom how to get the album from; iTunes, amazon and HMV. In the bottom right hand corner it shows that you could follow us on Twitter and Facebook. What we still need to add according to the checklist we need to have on a magazine advert are review stars and saying if it is out now or later on.

Also in the lesson we found out that there was an already made digi-pack with the title "Dreamscape" on it. This was as our teacher had found it whilst she was showing us examples of digi-packs to help us make sure we put the same detail as the professional digi-packs have on ours. 

After I looked on Google I found a couple of images with "Dreamscape" on and they led to how to download the artists/bands tracks. 

Above doesn't show their digi-pack. However it shows that you can buy the tracks online. The image that has "dreamscape" on it is very abstract. The image also looks hand drawn, or drawn with software but looks like it was done by hand, just like our image for our magazine advert.

Above shows that the artist is "Dreamscape" and they have a very abstract image, but different to how the one above it (the drawn looking one). It also shows that the genre is different as out genre is indie / pop / folk  because this is the genre Ellie Goulding is. In the Drawn looking picture it also mentions indie as a genre as well as rock and alternative. This suggests that dreamy themed digi-packs are more conventional in the indie genre.
