Poster & Digipack

We had many difficulties when trying to create our ancillary products, as we were unable to use our chosen texts on many different programmes; however we were able to use them on Microsoft programmes. Therefore we decided to create our poster on Microsoft Publisher, which worked very effectively and we were very impressed with the outcome, we included the websites that our chosen song would be available from, and a review from NME which rated it 4 stars. We used these conventions for our poster.

Our Digipack proved to be much more difficult, as it would not work on publisher, so we had to use Microsoft Word, somehow we managed to pull it off without reducing the quality of the pictures, and we included the conventions such as including the executive producer (and other companies involved with the production of our video, digipack and poster) in small font on the reverse side of the digipack. We also made sure we included a barcode on our digipack, to create a sense of verisimilitude.

Overall we were very impressed with our ancillary products as we had to improvise with the programming due to our audience feedback and the most popular fonts. We were not expecting such a good result from the Microsoft programmes, and these will be uploaded very soon.
