Final Poster

Editing & changing , Poster & Digipak

After the feedback received from my poster and digipak, I decided to make changes and improve my digipak and poster. 

For the poster I've changed the font to Andes which is the same font used on the digipak, I decided to use this font to keep a constant theme with the digipak and poster and also for my target audience to identify the font with the artist. Furthermore, I have changed the star rating to black and white as the original star rating was in gold which did not blend well with the poster. Lastly, I made the Instagram, Twitter and Facebook logos smaller as they were too big and I also added  "Available on iTunes " so that my target audience know where to purchase the artists music.  

I believe that my poster works very well as it portrays the codes and conventions of the RnB genre. Also , I feel that the picture chosen for the poster is very professional and attracts my target audience. 

The feedback received on my digipak was to change to the fourth the panel as the the image before was to close to the artist face, which I also agree. Decided to replace the image with an mid shot/close up image of the Jannelle blowing a kiss to go with the Laura Mulvey's Male Gaze theory as this theory is seen throughout the RnB genre. Overall, all the images work well together as there is a constant theme throughout. I also added a bonus visual CD as this is what makes the digipak stand out from others, Also on the CD I have added Janelle's signature too give a personal feel to the digipak and it also makes it unique. I am very please with this final digipak that I have created as it looks professional, it is eye catching and it works very well with the RnB genre.

Poster 2nd Draft

The is the first draft of my poster, I wanted to make sure that the poster and the album had the same throughout so the that the my target audience will be identify my artist easily. Furthermore, I also decided to change the font on the poster just to make a little different from the album. However, after speaking with Sinead she suggested that I should use the same font used on the album as it is more appealing and it portrays the RnB genre. Also , she suggested that I should change the the stars on the album rating as it does not blend well with the poster. From this feedback, I will be changing the artist font and will be using the Andes font which is also used on my digipak and I will change the star rating to white. 

Poster Examples

Recently I have not been sure on how I want my poster too look like, so I decided to do some research RnB posters. These posters will help me when creating my poster  and give me ideas on what I can add to my poster and how I can make it attractive and  unique. 

Poster 1st Drafts

Here are some drafts that I created for the album's poster. I tried different fonts from www.dafont.com , however im still not sure in what font I want to use on the poster. I think that i will use the same font that i used on the album on poster to have a consistent theme throughout the media products. I have decide to use the album cover as the poster image so that it will be easier for my target audience to identify  the artist.
