How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?

When I came to this decision I was happy as I mostly covered the elements of my mise en scene in the video and the expressions, as the background of the front and back cover was scene one.

I knew from my music I had to incorporate the atmosphere and emotional contents from my music video. Most of the characters expressions are blunt in the music video and talking to himself and he's the conscience, which makes the outgoing look negative it.

So the thought that the character stares into the camera on front, back, and CD layouts and that close ups will be good to see the full picture and audience can easily read the story of the digipack. The front and back cover where my main target as they mostly stand out and audience tend to see them before they open up inside.

Going further into the digipack I wanted to express the sides that the charcter shows his good and bad side connecting my colour scheme red was negative so the red light was place above his head covering my colour scheme. But the character still remains blunt and vain so that hopefully the audience wants to know more about him and the album.

The photo where black and white as it was the dominant colour of showing the negative outlook. This influence and developed a cold character and makes the mise en scene seem more enclosured and the close ups show more affective of the expressions the character are presented. I wanted my audience to just focus more on him in the middle of my digipack.

I did have problems though as I wanted to include my partner in the digipack, but the thing is that I may of drawn people off the whole genre of the story in the digipack and selling off the album in the best possible way, as my comment from my draft said that was to busy with two people in the shot and was harder to present an story and the placement of where they both went. Also I knew the poster had to have a link to my digipack with the mise en scene.

Overall I am happy that I covered link from my poster and digipack making them look nearly the same, and that the format of presenting the photos in black and white are successful and shows the love for the conscience and that I shown the inspiration from my music video. The font was off a website called cooltext.com and the font was 'alien glow' but under the graffiti aspect and randomized it.

The front and back font was Gothic sans this shows a bold outlook, the use of red from the research shows anger and hate which was good to express due to the expressions that the charcter jestured, the front font was large compared to the back but hat was for advertisment in the balance as the front is the main cover that audience read off frist so it had to b big to read and stand out from other albums.
