I have now done my greenday analysis and i really didntl ike it at all!!
the colours were all wrong i believe and it didnt appeal to me so i doubt it will appeal to other audience's.
The whole theme was about death and blood with an image of a heart on the front. i believe that it was most definately aimed at the male audience, with dark colours used and the paretnal advisory sticker at the bottom connoting that there is language which most people would find unacceptable
i think metro station and greenday haven't really added much to there albums and overall my favourite was 'No Doubt' with the use of colours, narrative and it really appealed to me, im hoping my group will want to use elements from this on our cd cover as much as i do.

Blink 182 cd cover analysis
I have now also finsihed my 'Blink 182' cd cover analysis.
I realy didnt liek this cover as it didnt really have nothing about it which i believe would attract any type of audience. It hadnt got anything that stood out at all
i wont be using any ideas from this one for my product design, i hope my group agree too.

'No Doubt' album cover analysis
i have now finished my analysis for this album cover.
I liked this one as i believe it contained everything an album covers needs: a narrative, the main artist at the front in a long shot, bold colours being used and the title being noticable.
I chose this one the analyse because is grabbed my attention and drawn me in.
It is also ranged to all classes which i believe is good as is reaches a wider audience and therefore more people will buy it. It is also not really a set gender that it is aimed at, it is both for the male and female audience. The tone of the album also was quite dull and moody but a twist about it which is why i feel it wil sell and why it relates to the 'pop rock ' genre really well as no one knows what to expect.
I would like to use elements of this for my cd cover design.

Avril lavigne cd cover analysis
Today i finsihed avril lavignes cd cover analysis.
I liked this one as it contained lots of girly 'pop rock' elements and as i would like our album cover to also be aimed at the female teenage audience it appealed to me.
The colours of pink's and whites used represented the funky girly stereotypical style of the genre. It hasn't got a specific narrative or storyline and i think it should of because it would of looked mroe appealing.
I liek this cd cover and would like a female artist in my main product.

Metro station album cover analysis
I have just completed the second one of my 6 album cover analyses of 'metro station'.
It is totally the opposite of how 'Pinks' was, there was no central picture of the band and the main colour was black, however the way they had the fotn really large in the bottom right habnd side in bright colours, still gave the bands nature and the genre away nicely without being overwhelming. The band could of made it more obvious whom the album was targetted at as it didn't have nay specific elements to follow to give away any hints who it was for.
i was not keen on using this album cover as an idea for my 'pop rock' song.

Pink album cover analysis
i have just finished my first album cover analysis for my chosen genre of 'pop rock', i found that Pink has used bright colours and quite emphasized facial expressions to express her feelings and the meaning of the album.
I like the way she is central and is more noticable than the title as i think it draws the audicnes attetnion in more, i like this idea for ym own cd cover.

Music genre we have chosen
As a group after our questionnaire we have decided to use the genre 'pop rock'. We thought this would be appealing to our target audience angling towards teenage girls. from the questionnaire we analysed that they like bands and artists such as, pink, christina aguilara etc.
the CD covers for this genre and the music videos are appealing with bright colour's, attractive artists and a storyliNe in the video, so their is a lot our group have to work with.

Music genre powerpoint finished
today i finished my music genre powerpoint, from this i have learnt that every type of genre has all different mixtures of album covers and music videos, containgin all different setting, colours and narratives. I like the fact that indie music has a narrative and involves all members of the band in the video, however i like the way rnb videos are put together using the artist as the main character.
From my analysing of different music videos etc i quite like the idea of doing rnb or indie, but i will speak to my group about this when we have finished doing all our research.

changed option
i have decided to change rock and roll in my powerpoint to drum and bass as there isnt much research on rock and roll that i feel is relevant for the kind of genre i am thinking about using.
Music genre powerpoint
today i also started my music genre powerpoint which i have decided 6 different types of music genre to focus on: Rnb (rhythm and blues), Dance, Indie (Independent music), Hip-Hop, funky house and rock and roll, i will do a slide on each one of these by analysing the music video they usually have, album covers and settings.
Research Audience Questionnaire
Today i started my research questionnaires. i decided not to decide on a specific genre as yet because i would like to research what audience's prefer and their tastes in music videos as i thought it would give me an idea on what to base my artefact on.
some questions i asked was:
6. What would you say is your favourite type of music genre?
7. What reasons is this your favourite type of genre?
8. Does this type of genre produce good music videos? Why?
9. What other types of music genre appeal to you on the high street shelves (album covers etc)?
