Magazine ad second draft

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:

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

 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:
