Evaluation
For
this assignment were asked to create a new band/artist with various graphics
tasks. When we first received this assignment we were concerned about first of
all who were going to use for our pictures and second of all weather to make a
band or a single artist. We came to the decision that we would create single
artists because the genre, which was, chilled garage house dj was easier to use
a single person, because you don’t see many DJ’s in pairs.
We then came up with the basics of our artist,
his real name is Tom dowler but his stage name is Dynamic we chose this because
it was edgy and it’s something people will remember. We then made four different logos, all of them
were very different and to help us decide which one to choose we carried out a
focus group. I think one of our weaknesses was our focus group because it didn’t
really go that well, because the people in the group weren’t really responsive
and didn’t give us the greatest of feedback. After our focus group we evaluated
our feedback. We mostly got positive feedback about our artist, a lot of them
said that our artist had commercial potential and they would listen to our
artist music.
One of our strengths was when we had all
our research we went around the college to find someone appropriate to be our
artist. We found a model in the drama department, and he was happy to pose for
our pictures. We were very happy with the pictures we took, because he was the
kind of guy we had in mind for our artist. We then edited them on Photoshop,
and changed the colour to black and white. We came up with the idea to have one
main picture and then have three more pictures behind fading slightly. We came up with this idea because it was
different and worked really well as a cd front cover. I think the faded
pictures show the different personality of his music. After this we then made
our poster which is the same as the album cover but just says ‘’ album to come
soon’’ I think this was a weakness of ours because we didn’t know whether to do
something completely different for the poster. We are happy we chose the same
as the album cover because people would know what to expect when the album
comes out.
Overall I think we managed our
time effectively because we were organised and both had different things to do,
so things we were getting done on time. We are both happy with our final submission;
it’s turned out how we imaged it to. We are happy that we have created an
artist that has a lot of potential and will be successful. If we could change
anything about our assignment it would be to do another focus group and get
better and different feedback. I think
it would of helped us more with the final product.
