The Album Cover
To create and develop the album digipack we used Adobe Photoshop to make our album cover, we used various different filters and other colours to make our cover stand out. Obviously we had to look at over conventions of Brit Indie CD covers to make sure it fits in with the stereotype. We took a lot of inspiration from Blur's "Best Of" album to help create and develop the CD artwork we wanted. In terms of the album title, we did struggle as the idea banded about were limited and somewhat poor. The draft title we had was "The Four Queens" which was a terrible name. The title "Technicolour" on the other hand we all like. It an ironic title when you consider how we shot our "Ritz to the Rubble" music video.The Music Video
As I briefly mentioned, the music video we shot was all in black and white. We initially got this idea from researching various indie music videos and we took a bit of inspiration from Oasis' video "Wonderwall" which is also shot in black and white. Our video is completely black and white compared to the album cover we made which is colourful, we did this because we didn't want the band to have a dark image.The Blog
The idea of the blog is to show the progress of our A2 coursework, we publish posts of ideas, research, developments, filming, schedules, editing etc. As for a real band, this would be a beneficial way to keep interactive with their fans. With limited interaction between the band and the fans, it could lead in the fans becoming frustrated and losing interactions.
Target Audience
I wouldn't really say that we target a specific audience as I feel we can appeal a variety of ages. However, I feel the majority of our target audience would be 16-30 years old. I also believe that the majority of our fans would also be British.
