Third Draft opinions
Overall what we found out from asking for improvements off of some classmates were....
- We need more of a performance element to be present
- We need to time shot changes to the beats more to make it more professional
- Include a singer in it but hide his face to keep the mystery

Record label logo comparison
To make my ancillary texts original and all my own work I decided to make the record labels logo that the Pixies are signed to: 4AD. I believe that my logo is very similar to the actual logo as I wanted to keep the realism of the of the band whilst still making it my own.

Logos made for my magazine advert
For my magazine advert I decided to create a music site to listen to our song on and also a social media page logo which people can go on to see the artists, I felt that this would make the magazine advert more unique as it would be all my own work rather than having the iTunes logo like most people would do.
This is my music site logo:

Ancillary text drafts peer assessment
Magazine Ad draft
This is my magazine ad first draft and it is a very different to my hand drawn picture as I realised my original idea would be difficult to pull off and many people might not get the meaning behind it which links towards the album, so I changed it to a simpler idea yet it still gives a dark and mysterious feel which the album creates in its songs.

Digipak first draft pictures comparison
Digipak - first draft
For my digipak I wanted to keep a similar feel to the actual band, as they have no star image in their albums and only have images that represent what the album songs are like, for example Surfer Rosa is quite a dark album and based around sexual themes therefore justifying the topless woman and tghe dark filter over the top. However I am not allowed to follow the same theme to represent sexual themes therefore I have chosen the dark and mysterious route hence the lack of star image to keep him mysterious and the theme of neglect (the dead flower/ abandoned building).

Glitch effect tutorial
David and I were looking at different Adobe Premier Pro tutorials for effects we could add to our music video, we found a glitch tutorial which we thought would suit our scene where the man in the mask smacks over the camera. This is the tutorial video:

Letterbox effect
For our music video we want to create a letterbox effect on our shots as we have seen this in many music videos and we felt that it made it look more professional, here are a few examples:
< Arctic Monkeys - Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?
Arctic Monkeys - Suck It And See >
< The Killers - When You Were Young

Task G - Draft of each ancillary text
This picture will be like the one on the back of the digipak where the list of the songs on the album will appear. This is from the last time I went to the abandoned school and felt that its dark gloomy theme to it matched the themes of the songs on the album.
The filtered picture of the one above.
This picture has the same camera settings that I would like to use to capture my front cover photo so that the background graffiti is out of focus and there is a focus on the character in the center. However my character will only be showing himself from the chest upwards and dressed in the same clothing as the video.
This photo is very similar to the front of the inside flap, I would like a guitar to be in a wood and have leaves all over it. However the guitar might not be standing up it may be in a different position and the background will contain a lot more trees and landscape, also the background may be out of focus.
