Week 15 blog reflection
This week was our final week in product. Our deadline was Thursday for our main product. Our main focus this week was finishing our ancillary products- Magazine and Digipak.
Our first decision of the week was making sure that we both knew what we are doing. We broke the two products up, Ella did the magazine and I did the digipak.
This week was hard as we didn't have much time to spend on our ancillary products meaning we had to rush them in order to meet the final deadline.
The week started with us taking more photo's of Ediz the artist, we used the green screen as we had the plan to have the artist walking across the inside panels of the digipak. However this didn't work out how we wanted it to when we started editing the pictures in fireworks. I felt that it looked too random in terms of the positioning, when i added more of him walking it looked to cramped. I then also had to decided between photoshop or fireworks. I chose fireworks because i have more knowledge with the program but i will use photoshop to edit the pictures because its much more easier.
I felt that making the ancillary product was harder than it looked as the editing on the images had to be very detailed in order to go on a background. Also picking the image to represent the artist was hard and finding a meaning. I decided that i wanted the artist to look sad as the album is about love.
I then used the pictures i edited to create the middle inside panel. I edited all the images of Ediz walking together.
I then had to make the decision of the colour scheme which i found hard. I had to make sure the colour were consistent and the colours appealed to my target audience. So i stuck with the red, black and white colours. Our main focus was to try and get all three products the same in order to appeal to our target audience. Overall i was happy with our final products when we handed them in as i felt they matched our genre.
