website/album art designs!

In today's lesson I was looking at possible fonts for my written text on both the website and the album cover I am designing. I have a previous separate post relating to some of the photos I am choosing to use on my album art, giving sneak peaks and colour schemes to show how much I have prepared. The fonts I have chosen to look at are the following:





These fonts represent the innocence of the character, but also an edgier reputation that the artist shows, much relating to Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato, who came from innocence and have spiraled into becoming their own person. Diamond is the exact same way, and on the website reveals some personal things and opinions.

costume & make up shots








These photos are a few of the different costumes and make up we used, obviously differentiating between each filming/photography session and time of day it was. I feel as though these are significant to the theme of our video, as the main star has charisma, charm and elegance, which is display through the photos. Our main star also gives off a vibe of immense confidence, which was the look and personality trait we were going for.

Website/Album Art Photos

As this is my individual blog, I will not put up all the photos from the shoot today, like I did on the group blog. Instead I will only put between 4 and 6 up, and those will probably be the ones I intend to use on the website and digipak.






Note these have not been edited but the ones on the website & digipak will be/are.

Photo Shoot

Today, myself, May and Olivia found a beautiful location in the centre of our school to take photos for our website and album covers/digi paks for. I feel as though the photo shoot was successful because we were able to get a variety of different still shots/photos for the intended projects. And everybody in my group joined in for the activity, not just one person taking photos and the other standing around. Whilst one member of the group took photos, the other would direct me (or rather Diamond) saying 'okay do this, and flash a smile, look down, look up etc etc' which helped to include every member of the group. We have decided to use these photos to upload onto our group website, and to use one or two for our individual digi paks and album covers. The whole purpose of the photo shoot was to make additions to our website, so that Diamond's target audience can relate to her and get to understand her personality, which we have created her to be charming, playful and charismatic.

Fact file

Even though Josie is the main vocalist, we will not be using her name or characteristics. We will also not be using characteristics that are similar or the same as Taylor Swift's, considering she is such a big star.
This is a fact file that I personally devised, and we plan to keep her costume a bit punkier/edgier than the original artists own wardrobe.

Location Photos #4























These stills were taking during the second filming session in richmond park, but the sunshine juxtaposes the snowy backgrounds we had before, which represented a different period in time.

Location Photos #3









These locations were used to differentiate between narrative and singing. so the location of my house showed the narrative, each room signifying differences. such as the kitchen, hallway and stairs represented the aggressive-negative parts of the relationship, and the rooms with the sofa's displayed the love and passion between the two characters.
