2. Introduction My groups task was to produce a music video for either a signed or un-signed artist. The video itself needed to be suitable for the genre of music, and the audience it was targeted at. Along with the actual video, we were also tasked to produce a print based project, consisting of an album cover (front, back, inside left and right sleeves) and a magazine article about the album release. These tasks were achieved by team Briscoe, Bull, Howard and Ahmed. We were all involved in every aspect of completing this task, but all specializing in different fields of the production. My main contributions came in setting up shots, finding and experimenting with different locations, initial editing stages, general organization and research. As stated above, all group members made sure they were involved in all stages of production, we all took turns on the camera, all chipped in in the editing suite and all had a go on Photoshop working on the ancillary tasks. Our video, and the artist we used work at targeting the 16-25 age range, they were our target audience. Our products are very bright, lively and youthful, so would appeal to anyone in the age range, provided they like the pop/punk genre of course! We looked at a few different mainstream videos for ideas.

8. Album Covers and Inserts This the first of the inserts. It keeps brand identity by displaying our logo several times, also keeps the same colour scheme. The graffiti style is in keeping with the brand identity. This is the second insert, which again, has the same design of logos going across the top, same colour scheme. We have a picture of the band displayed across the bottom, all in green.
