Evaluation: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?



This shows intertextuality for the opening of Jay Z and Kanye West- In Paris and our own music video. It opens similarly with the names of the artists followed by the name of the song.


As both these songs have a similar rhythmic pattern at a point in a song they both illustrate the lyrics being said at the time. The video also shows the performer pointing to the words as they are being said, as if to engage the audience.


As Little Mix was our main influence we watched there video closely and tried to follow some conventions used. For example the use of spilt screens and coloured backgrounds was taken. Also to contrast Laura Mulvey and this video our artists do not dress to appeal for the 'male gaze' and contradict this by mainly being in the androgynous look.

Final Products of ancillary

My final product for my advert followed the same layout as my mock up. I followed the same layout that I saw in a magazine for another group. I made a few changes from the original that I posted, for example some of Renee's hair got cut off, so I added the white banner across the top with the album name. This was beneficial to my product as it made the album name stand out and also matched the colour scheme of the white box at the bottom. To make the actual album cover stand out I added a border around it and also made it a bit bigger than it was before.

Advertisment so far

From looking at the advertisement on the right, I tried to follow the same conventions. I designed my advertisement to match what you would see in a magazine on A4 paper. I added a picture of the actual front panel of my CD.

Inside Panel so far


So far this is how i have designed my inside panel to look. I have kept to the colour scheme used for the front and back panels. also from looking at the CD below I added the artist name, album name and track listing. I tried to add the record label logo but was having difficulty doing so. I i find a way to do this I will add it on later in production. 
I also kept the same two fonts 'An Unfortunate event' and 'Papyrus'.

Do's and don'ts



Pictures to use for ancillary product

aa26361's Work album on Photobucket

Olly Murs

From looking at this digipak it is evident there is a clear colour scheme. Although the front panel does not have a close up there is one on the back panel.The album title is spread across two of the panels. You can also see that there are only two fonts used.
Another idea I had from looking at his particular one was having the artist on the front wearing an opposite colour of clothing compared to the colours used for the digipak.
