I have then tried to create a similar combination to allow the themes to run throughout my final products and create my own brand identity.

The first thing I have done to create my brand identity is using themes and scenes from my final music video in the album artwork and print ad.

By using the same scenes in the ancillary products as in my music video, it creates continuity within the brand of the artist.

The music video, the album cover and the print ad all have a gothic gloomy feel to them. This also works well in keeping consistency in genre of the artist in my media products.

DTo create my final image for my ancillary products I edited my images on Adobe Photoshop, I did this by adding layers to create different effects and chose the best one I felt worked well with the genre of the music and to fit best with my music video. This effect will be represented throughout both my ancillary products such as CD cover and advertisement poster.

The filter used to create this effect was ‘Lighten’

After I had edited my images on Photoshop I then added text using Adobe Illustrator, I used this programme because it has a wide range of different fonts to choose from rather than just added text on a Publisher document and it allowed me to find the best font that worked well with the image and the genre of music.

I used two different fonts on Illustrator – Georgia and Edwardian Script ITC these fonts I felt worked well with the genre and the gothic feel, the font I used for the artists name is much plainer than the album name I didn’t want to have too much of the same font going on because the artists name wouldn’t stand out to the other text. I then used this font on the back of the album cover for the producers name and copyright text at the bottom. The curlier font I used for the album name on the front of the CD cover and from the song numbers on the back of the CD cover and also on the poster.

DI have used the same fonts on my different ancillary products to make them a more effective combination. I chose the font that I felt goes with the heartache genre of the music on my final media product. I tried to keep the font to fit with the artist of music and what genre she works with.

The second font I used for the artists name was plain because I didn't want to much clutter or too much going on in the ancillary products, which works well with the simple mise-en-scene used in the music video.

Artists name

The image is the largest , most eye-catching part. The star is the unique selling point and one of the reason fans will buy this CD.

Album name

Use of colour – Black, red and white and the star if wearing a white dress which stands out from the darker background of black and red.

The image is the largest , most eye-catching part. Shows the love heart hanging from the tree with no star which represents the album name ‘Hearts Strings’

Track names, and running order of tracks and number of each track– the text is written vertically down the side of the image and written in white text with a faded grey box behind it.

Barco

The producers details in small print as this isn’t so important to the fans

Use of colour – Black, red, white and grey are all contrasting colours, the heart stands out against the grey black fence and makes it more eye catching
