Elements that worked:

Diamond Logo/ Branding

Vision of video

Typography is effective

Overall themes and tone/mood are clear

Intertextual referencing

Iconography

Use of Prezi

Things that need developing:

Background story needs developing

Record Label Information

Industry connection

More explicit about intertextual reference

What kind of dress/time period?

Since the pitch I have looked further into location ideas and begun working on developing my narrative further to

Feedback from Leanne

Above is the feedback given to me by my teacher 

on how to improve my blog.

The majority of the feedback I have been given is generally positive, commenting on my analysis and depth of progress. I was also praised for my use of Prezi and Glogster for my Mood Board and Artist Brief.

There are however some negatives. This includes the lack of visual labels [since been fixed by adding the labels gadget] and also feedback asking add images or more explanation to posts, such as my Prezi Mood Board. I was also questioned about the image layout in some of my analysis posts which I shall be looking at and hopefully changing depending on whether Blogger allows me to move the images freely. 

Journal: 05/10/12- Digipak Research

A Digipak is a style of packaging used commonly for CDs and DVDs.

Here are a few examples of recent popular digipak designs:

Rihanna- Talk That Talk (2011) Digipak, Insert, and CD

Muse- The Resistance (2009) Digipak, Insert and CD

Mumford & Sons- Sigh No More (2009) Digipak, Insert and CD

 Digipaks are most commonly used now for EPs and Deluxe albums. The digipak design is used instead of the usual jewel case used most by record labels. The digipak has a more stylish look and allows the artist to put more information on the case and also use the the leaflet inside to get across an image or to contain lyrics for the EP or album tracks.
