EVALUATION - questions/how to answer them
I have now practically finished my planning and research, music video, and the ancillary texts. Therefore I have finally came to the evaluation questions of my music video.
The questions include:
1 - In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
2 - How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
3 - What have you learned from your audience feedback?
4 - How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?
How will they be answered?
To answer my evaluation questions I will make a video for all of them, but use a variety of different platforms and technologies within these videos. For example although it will be a video we will be able to see interviews, or running commentary. (In this way it is a form of technological convergence). Therefore by using a video it will be an ideal to present my answers because it will maintain the attention of the viewer/marker, whilst a variety of different styles and media technologies are use which help to reflect the massive range and development of media industry.

Poster
As part of my ancillary text, I had to create a poster. To create the poster I used the same software as I had previously used for my digipack, which is indesign as I had now gained experience about how to use the software and is practical for creating such a product, as its fitted into the school computers which we use. Creating the poster was a relatively quick process compared to that of the digipack, as I feel it was more straight forward of what was expected.
Here is a look at one of the final drafts of my poster:

However the mouse curser is obviously not included in the poster, and the 'future class' emblem has been removed.
I choose to have the same picture on the front of both my digipack and poster to make a clear link between the two. Further more it captures a nice image of my main actor, who is representing the theme of mystery as her face is half hidden.
I decided to place an image of a park at the bottom, which shows both an urban and rural environment which again relates to the setting of my music video, it also fills in the space.
The date given would be the release date to make viewers aware of when the album is released.
Writing on the top and bottom is in a unique but rather simple format which helps capture overall feeling of my digipack, with the slick look to attract viewers without going over the top.
Overall I am pleased with my poster and ancillary texts.
