Evaluation Post #2

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

I believe James and I successfully managed to combine our main product with our ancillary tasks quite well, through a series of techniques like creating a house brand with our products, we did this in several ways, such as the running theme of black and white throughout our three products and making sure a the same instruments and similar poses were used through out. If my audience would see either the poster or the music video or magazine advert they would instantly recognize it because of the similarities in design they share from recognizing the black and white video stills from the music video, on the album cover and magazine.

James and I also made it our priority to include the faces of the four members of our band on our cover for our digipak and magazine advert, and also the music video where we showed the 4 members faces extensivly, to help our audience identify with our band as a brand and a product. For example here in our two ancillary tasks:, there is the common re-occurence of certain member's faces to really establish that house style but to also just really help promote the band in our project, like a real world media product would.
