Hey, my name is Leanne Pyne-Lowe and I'm an A Level student studying Media at Harris City Academy Crystal Palace. This is my A2 Blog where I will continuously record and update my coursework. Our task was to create three products that can be marketed, in this case it was a music video, a digipak and magazines advert. The work will be separated into the following sections: Research, Planning, Production and Post-Production. Thank you x

Song Selection
These are the following songs we chose, however we was instructed not to use these song due to the fact that they are too current which means there would be a lot of legal issues in getting the company to allows us to use the songs, this would involve writing a detailed letter to that recording label who owns that song and get permission from them to use it however there is a high chance that the label may not even see or response to that email.secondly the tempo of the songs vary from too fast to too slow which makes it difficult for us to film a music video especially since we are Beginners.

Conventions Of an Album Cover/Digipak
Front cover:
- Simple Colour scheme that is clear throughout the album for example black and white back group.
- Simplistic design because if it is too complicated it reduces the audience as they don't understand.
- There is no writing on the front other than the album name.
there is a barcode on the album so that they can scan it upon purchase which makes it easier to calculate how many albums have been sold for that particular artist.
- The writing is bold and clear and the title is there so that the audience are aware of who's album it is.
- There could be hidden meanings on the album cover for example on Rihanna's recent album cover (Anti)there is brail on the cover which has a hidden meaning.
Back cover:
- Copy right and year.
- Name of the recording company that has released the song.
- Barcode in bottom right hand corner and parental guidance sticker for parents.
- List of the song titles.
- Name of the artist
- The distributed of the album.
Insides:
- Evident Colour scheme
- A picture that is on both sides
- No text or little text
- Possible the lyrics to all the songs
spine:
- Name of the artist.
- Album name.
- Code for the recording company.
- Simple and clear fonts.
