The Final Products

Music Video
I am really pleased with our final video. I think that with a non existent budget we have managed to create a professional video that looks good. I believe that we have challenged the conventions of the genre and believe we have represented them well. I believe that we have edited to the best of our ability and that we have made a good music video that the band and the examiners will both enjoy.

Poster
I think that the poster that we have created looks professional and matches the genre well. When creating it I thought that we would put special effects on if the picture needed it, however we wouldn't put any on if we could once we made it look professional. I believe the simplistic nature of the picture works well without any effects, I also believe that if it was on a wall amongst any other posters it wouldn't look out of place.


CD Sleeve
Our CD sleeves and inserts only focus the narrative part of the video as we thought that would be the most interesting thing to look at. As well as trying to make it look good so that it makes good marks I also believe that it is good to look at and will make people want to buy the album.


Cohesion
Because we made our video first and had some amazing pictures we decided to base all our other products around the narrative we filmed. This has allowed us to start off with a cohesive element. That was the biggest challenge. Being able to construct the products together in one day allowed us to keep our cohesion to a high standard. We didn't just have similar pictures to create the cohesion, each picture had the same backdrop and after we constructed it all we made sure all had the same style writing 'Rage Italic' for the bands logo and 'Rockwell' for the other writing. Also all the writing was in the same colour. This allowed all our products to look similar and be cohesive. If you showed people our music video and gave them a line up of posters and CD sleeves I believe most people would recognise that ours are linked. This is good because that is exactly what we strived for. We know this from the positive feedback we have been getting about the cohesion.
