Blogging Health Check 3
The feedback that I received was pretty negative and that is understandable because I haven't been keeping up with my blog post and uploading all of my ancillary work. Since the feedback however, I have now completed the digipaks and uploaded my 3 flat plan drawings of my work. The only thing that I need to do now is complete my evaluation and complete the post on the Do's and Don't and I hope to complete all that before the deadline which is on Friday.
Differences - Plan to Final (Website)
Differences - Plan to Final (Inside the Digipak)
Out of all of the products that I had planned, this is the one that turned out the most different. I decided to stick with the close up shot that I had planned but I decided just to use that for the cd disk as I believe that it looked better. Even though the thank you note is in a different place, I used a similar font and used the exact same words as they were simple and straight forward but gave the message out that I had intended.
Differences - Plan to Final (Digipak Cover and Back)
My final product came out quite a bit different to what I had initially planned. A lot of his was due to the photos that I took. I felt that I took some photos that were too good not to use, therefore I replaced them with photos that I preferred and believed would suit the digipak more.

Survey - Work feedback
In order to get more feedback on my work, I decided to create a survey using SurveyMonkey. Once I created the survey, I distributed it to people in the target audience.
These are the questions that I asked:
The responses that I got were quite mixed. However, the constructive criticism that I received was very helpful and will push me to improve my work and take those comments on board. The results also has shown me that the target audience are able to spot and take into account my use of synergy throughout my work.

Practising using Photoshop 2
After the initial practice with photoshop, I decided that it would be better if I spent more time on it as I wanted to perfect it. I started working on my idea and how I wanted to make it look when I am finished. As you can see from the screenshots above, I was taking it step by step to make sure my it bonds well with my theme and I was also discovering new tools that I could use when it came to making my final work. Overall, this was very useful as now I feel that after a couple attempts, I have really understood how to use and have a better idea of what I want to do.

Editing photos for my website!
I decided that because it was a convention of the acoustic genre to use black and white, I wanted to incorporate that in my photos. However, I wanted to keep some of them with full colour as I didn't want to completely over do it. In the video above, you can see my progress and how I edited them.
Digipak Final
After receiving feedback i realised I needed to add the legal information and record label onto my actual CD. I kept everything else the same otherwise
Website Progress
During this video, you can see my progress and how I started to put together my website for the artist. Here, I chose a template, uploaded photos and worked on 3 pages of the website.
