I think my music video, digi-pack and magazine advert work in sync together as they all have similar theme. I like to think that I've have made my genre clear through my three products.
For my digi-pack and magazine designs, I chose to use the same font to link to the two together. Using the same font for both the magazine and cd cover will hopefully make my target audience recognise the band I've chosen, therefor, allowing more publicity and selling of their products.
After researching other alobum covers, artists such as The Gorillas, The Beatles, Owl City and Fireflight all seem to have a rather a simple font for their album covers but is just as recognisable as something more extreme. The popularity of these bands is proof enough that you dont have to have an amazing font for your album or magazine advert. They do however make up for this for their interesting take of their music videos, an example of this is Owl City's video for FireFlies, whilst the video in itself is rather simple, the content does bring a smile to your face with its childlike nature
I wanted to use this in my music video because I wanted the audience to focus on the story more than the graphics.
I've taken inspiration for my album cover from The Beatles. I really liked the idea of having all four band members on the front cover but with them doing their own thing with the added element of different colours to match their personalities. Also, because they are an indie band, I wanted them to have a querky style to them that would be recognised for my target audience.
The combination of my products has hopefully established the genre of music and style of the band is. I used bright colours against black to make them stand out and show the band members which will hopefully attract people to buy their album.
