Ancillary task - Digipak feedback

Once our digipak was completed we presented the final product (1st version) to our teacher. She studied it and then gave us some feedback. This is what she said:


Photographic images; framing, focus, camera angle, lighting, colour, background and mise en scene

• Sharp, well lit and well framed image - the headless model in keeping with the "indie" genre.
• Interesting mix of props - wealth vs. low life brick wall background.
• Strong colour.

Typography and text; choice of fonts, sizing, layout, colour, readibility, language register and content

• Font appropriate
• Size and layout are okay.

Layout decisions; rule of thirds, text positioning, sizing, balance of image and text and focus of attention

• All good - figure and braces succeed in drawing the viewers attentiom.

Genre codes and indicators of audience targetting

• Style and choice of track names suggest an "indie" audience, young male?

Overall impact; what works and what can be improved

• Strong impact from cover.
• Inside faces lack detail - add track lyrics etc...
