https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g How effective is the combination of your main product (video) and your ancillary texts (advertisement&advert)? en-us 2018-01-26 14:10:57 UTC 2024-07-27 08:51:01 UTC hello@padlet.com ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225056899 Synergy refers to the idea of clear visual links between products. For example, one type of font or object like a clothing item would be consistently appearing in all of the artists products like websites, adverts, posters and digipaks. One good example of synergy is the Daft Punk album cover and video - both featuring the same silver/gold/black colour scheme and the same white font with a futuristic theme. ]]> 2018-01-26 14:23:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225056899 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225061968 2018-01-26 14:32:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225061968 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225063482 Although no fonts/writing was used in our video, we made visual synergy with other elements. I wanted to create synergy between the fashion/outfits worn by the artist. For example, during the pitch tasks we decided on making the artist wear many bold earrings which would be featured in all of the shots. ]]> 2018-01-26 14:35:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225063482 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225067262 2018-01-26 14:41:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225067262 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225067460 2018-01-26 14:42:17 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225067460 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225068277 Firstly, The main colour scheme was maintained between all three ancillary products. I wanted to pick a repetitive sections of the video, one that appears most frequently and that would make the video memorable, and create links in all three products. The section of the video i decided to pick was the pre-chorus. The colour scheme is pink and black. ]]> 2018-01-26 14:43:39 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225068277 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225072836 2018-01-26 14:51:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225072836 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225073223 A similar type, pink background was used and the artist is still wearing the bold earrings to maintain the link between all of the products. The bottom is black and the font which is also consistently used throughout the advert and website, is black and in the font 'BEBAS NEUE'. This would make the advert recognisable as representative of the video. ]]> 2018-01-26 14:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225073223 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225075165 2018-01-26 14:56:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225075165 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225076481

The font on the front page is also BEBAS NEUE and background of the main image is also pink. The background of the rest of the website is black supporting the pink and black colour scheme on the advert and the pre-chorus shots in the video. 

The images on the website are also taken in the same location (the studio), in which the shots for the video were taken.

The pre-chorus scenes were transformed into gifs which all demonstrate the pink background and further encourage audiences to watch the music video. This creates very clear visual synergy. Furthermore, the record labels (primary talent international and boiler room) which are also featured on the advert appear on the bottom of the website.  ------>]]> 2018-01-26 15:22:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225089213 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225092797 2018-01-26 15:29:06 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225092797 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225093602

Colour scheme is consistent throughout. 

The music video elements are present on the website itself (like gifs from video or  the video which pops up on the music page)

The earrings and the outfit of the artist on the image in the advert is the same as in the music video

For example: the locations like graffiti walls and estates or blocks would appeal to a younger audience as these may be familiar locations they may find themselves in. The advert is very clear and concise demonstrating a clear visual pattern - including the colours and earrings. The website is easy to navigate and uses the most recent social media platforms like twitter and instagram as opposed to more dated (to a young audience) social media platforms like Facebook. This makes my products easy for consumption by a young target audience. ]]> 2018-01-26 15:35:57 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225096508 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225104251 Jessie J's synergy between the Who You Are album and her video 'Price Tag' creates some visual synergy with the hairstyle, the identical black clothing worn and the jewellery along with hand gestures all connect the her initial image on the advert. ]]> 2018-01-26 15:46:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225104251 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225108184 2018-01-26 15:54:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225108184 ab94493 https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225109457 Despite the website being more recent than the advert and video, the black colour scheme continues.]]> 2018-01-26 15:56:54 UTC https://padlet.com/ab94493/recck72yjh5g/wish/225109457
