[ANCILLARY PLANNING] - Ancillary Productions Pitch Feedback

Ancillary Productions Pitch Feedback

After pitching my ideas to Louisa, I was suggested changes that I should consider in order to maximize my abilities to produce a high standard piece of work.

Overall she explained how I had a strong piece, but there were little bits and bobs that I should probably change.

Firstly she suggested I use a different image for the main digipak, as a long shot was really winning her over and also there was a lamp post that was taking away the attention from the artist.

However I was able to justify my reasons for using this specific picture which it that: 'most PBRnB artists such as Jhene Aiko, The Weeknd, Frank Ocean, Miguel tend to have album covers with attention diverted away from them, and so I was only trying to portray the conventions of the genre which we focused on'. Also I wanted to use this image as it uses the smoke flare which is also shown in our video which give the synergy link to all 3 products. Lastly I felt as though the way production went with our music video (the disorganization) that I didn't wish to get together with the group and go out and take pictures so tried the best with what I already had.

She also suggested that I remember to add the production information.

Looking at my mock ups of the digipak it was clear that there was no link between the inside and outside which means I wasn't following the 'appropriate digipak rules' and so she suggested that a image to be used to connect the two, perhaps another smoke shot with 'Yasmin Ally' travelling the opposite way to the front.
