First draft questionnaire

These are some question that we are planning to ask people about our first draft in order to improve on it.

Do you like the song choice?

Are you male or female?

What genre is the music video?

What would you like to see improved?

Do you think it looks professional? If so why? If not why?

Would you be attracted to the album if you saw it in a shop?

Do you like the Digipak?

Do you think our music is suitable for the genre?

Do you think that the artist fits the genre and fits the video?

Are the shots steady?

Are there enough different locations in the video to not make it boring?

Is the material suitable for the genre and for the artist?

Does the video fit with media conventions?

Is there a variety of transitions and are they appropriate for the task?

Has the video used images and editing appropriatly set for the task?



What would you rate the video out of ten?

Digi Packs

This is the survey that was completed about everyone's digipack. WE all completed a questionnaire about everyone else's Digi Pack. This was very helpful as we received about 20 different opinions about what we have created. After we received our feedback we realised that no one like the font or colour we had use din our digipack. For these reasons we have amended the digipack and the colour scheme will be played.
















































Digi Pack Review



There's not much I like about this digipak except that the picture of the band members has been morphed into the clouds, thats really cool. It is too grey and makes me feel depressed. The text is nice though.

Encodeds digipack shows continuity in the fact that they have usefd the same colours constantly throughout. The CD doesnt look complete its just blank with no design on it. And i think that the same bacground is maybe a bit to repetitive it could change the pattern slightly.

Very plain with the same background throughout the whole digipack. Could be improved by adding more pictures of the band.

WWW: Lyrics page looks professional and Picture page suits your genre also. EBI: Personally i think you should scrap the text its too basic. Change having clouds on every page and if you are keeping it change the white text as its hard to read. Have more photos of artists. Take a better front cover photo as it you wouldn't be able to see the artist from a distance. Make an actual CD print. (Best let max do it)

Encoded's colour scheme is very unified but I think it needs to be a little darker in terms of the shade of grey used. Also what is up with the bottom middle digipak? a cd on the horizon?

The encoded website is is very plain. All the same colours are used througout all the digipak. The black and white colours do go well together but not with the text. The text colour clashes with the background meaning that you cant read it. The image is not the same as eeryone else's and is editied a lot meaning it is different to everyone else.

Not actual size and scale of a digipak. Love the monochromatic colour scheme, perhaps though, the colours are too similar - go for contrast! Font also seems a tad generic, explore into other fonts that can present Encoded how you want them to be received.

I like that there is a clear theme throughout. The same text and colours have been used which makes it look really slick and professional. the disc could have been more interesting as it is very place - possibly add the artist name and album name?

This digipak is very good but some parts are hard to read as the colours are too similar. More colour may help to catch the customers eye. There is a lot of good synergy and also the images used are of a good quality.

Although i like their digipack i feel they could use a better font. The digipack is quite plain and simple so having an interesting font would help.
12/1/2014 12:26 PM View respondent's answers

I feel all the writing should be black as some of the white writing gets lost on the background.
12/1/2014 12:13 PM View respondent's answers

i like how they've kept a monochrome theme Make the writing slightly bigger
12/1/2014 11:48 AM View respondent's answers

Text blends with the background too much Not a lot there, dull Guessing the genre is easy
12/1/2014 11:46 AM View respondent's answers

Cool and creative front cover Could do with more variety in image

it fits together very well as all of the backgrounds are the same. i love the black and white colour scheme and cloudy/marbled effect. however some of the white text is lost within the white parts of the background and the cd is quite boring in a plain silver.

I like the misty black, grey and white background. Improvements: it is so simple, the font is simple, the pictures are simple. Make it a bit more memorable?

This is all the the feedback from the Digi pack survey  monkey. The main problem people had with our digi pack is the font and the color of the text on some pages. We are planning to take this on board and are going to change the aspects of the Digi pack that were least liked.





These are all the question that people were asked to answer about all of the Digi packs in the group. The feedback we have received is all very helpful. The most helpful are the constructive criticism that we have received. There were many features that alot of people did not like and these are things that definitely need to be changed.

Self Evaluation.

My 2 Greatest strengths: my best strength is getting the blog up to date for the group and organising people.

Two skills I need to work on are: Not being offended by constructive critism. I also need to argue less with members of the group.

Things I learnt from the group: I have learnt a lot about Photoshop and the importance of good camera work.

Our group would work a lot better if we all listen more carefully to other ideas.

Peer assessment.
