Draft 2 of ancillary text- poster.

I created a second draft of my poster. I feel here that it looks a lot better and creative compared to my first. some of my peers said the the small print and logos are conventional to real media texts making the poster look realistic. They like the double image and the effect of it being cartoon. Some said the the black and white effect looked better for the genre, so I feel this will change of my next drafts. They also said that the red text on the black did not stand out enough. 

Ancillary Texts

These are first drafts of what my Ancillary texts would look like. The drawing effect looks cool, however the poster looks rushed and tacky. With my next drafts I will work to make it look a lot better, using my own artist name and adding key text as a convention of a music poster. I felt the CD looks effective however it needs to have my own text written on it and the logos and small print as a convention of a real CD. The Front cover and back cover I feel look really cool, and I hope to use these in my further drafts. 

Possible Digi-pak Fonts.

I selected different fonts that would possibly look good for the name of my album. I placed my album name in each font on a page of A4 paper, this allowed me to see clearly which I like best and when making my Digipak I could use all to see which looked best. 

more pictures for ancillary texts

When looking at my edited images for my Ancillary texts, I felt that there were not enough, and in the style of Florence and the machine. Therefor using Photoshop, I created some more in the style of her and used the cartoon effect on some. 

Edited images

I created multiple images, that i edited on photoshop. I blurred and overlaid different pictures of emily's face over the top of each other to create an amazing effect. I then tempered with the colour balance and hue saturation to create different tones and colours creating different moods of each image.

Possible DigiPak Photos

Whilst shooting my music video on various days, i managed to take possible photos for my ancillary texts. These photos were taken from two of my shooting days and i prepared her hair and make-up for this shoot also.

Primary ancillary texts of florence and the machine (posters)

Here I collected Primary Images of Florence and the Machine's posters. I have posted four on this blog post and for each I am going to explain what I like and how I am going to use them in the making of My Ancillary texts. The top left I like for the real imagery with the artificial light coming. I like how it lights up the poster and gives it an effect which would make you stop to look at it. I also like the Font used on the text as it looks like hand writing, as if Florence would of wrote it herself. The other three I like for the cartoon effect used on the imagery. The top right I like the simplicity of the picture and the text. I also like how on some of the letters they have used the red to fill the gaps. The bottom left I like for the font especially and I like the roses used in the same carton effect below. I also like how she is not the biggest picture on the page yet it still draws your eye to her and the text of her name. The bottom right I like for the cartoon effect. And the background. Very Artistic and suits the genre of indie/pop.

From looking at these Ancillary Texts it has allowed me to understand what I want to try and Achieve within mine and the photo effect and Fonts are 2 things that I will be trying to use in the making of my Ancillary Texts.
