Evaluation - Main product and ancillary texts

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

I felt that our main product and ancillary texts worked well together due to the fact that we based it all on one setting. In our film we included alot of a 'field' scene, which is where we took our photos for our ancillary texts aswell.
We liked this perticular scene in our video and thought it would work well with the ancillary texts aswell, the easel for example. It was bright, colourful and a lovely view.
We ensured that our singer 'Sophia' was dressed in a similiar way during the ancillary and main text to maintain the same image that we were trying to show across. This was also so it related more to our target audience, a 'hippy, indie' style.
We tried to use the same colours throughout both our CD Cover and poster by using the eyedropper tool on photoshop. This allowed us to create the same colour on both showing more of a stronger connection between them.



Ancillary task's.

This is to show how alot of 'indie' CD covers do not have there artists on, like ours and our music poster to show how it relates to our CD cover. The green colours and outside views consistant throughout both.

I dont think the ancillary task's relate much to our main product, the video, however this seems to be conventional between most albums and video's. This is because the album is not based around the one song we have made the video for, but every song on that album.
Our CD cover may have a prop from our video in, however this is just a background setting that worked well and fitted into our genre of our songs in the album. So i think this fits in well.
