Brief

For the AS media course I have a range of briefs I can select from. I have the choice of working in pair or alone. Once I have chosen the brief I wish to do, I will need to do a large sum of research relevant to my chosen topic and the analysis of existing media products. I will be creating a media portfolio of one main task and two smaller ancillary tasks. I will be posting my progress on this blog, to update and to present my progress.

The brief I have chosen to do:

A promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music promo video, together with two of the following three options:

1. a website homepage for the band;
2. a cover for its release as part of a digipak (CD/DVD package);
3. a magazine advertisement for the digipak (CD/DVD package).

As well as creating a music promo video I have to create to smaller tasks to go with the main task, which is the music promo video. I feel creating an album cover digipak and a magazine advertisement will be best. I believe these are the best options for me as I created a magazine last year, so I will know the best way to design it, with incorporating the requirements needed as a magazine. I also think an album cover will be best as it will make my designing techniques stand out, and it will fit in with the music video.
