How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?

Our combination of the main product and ancillary texts are very effective. We decided to link them together with the image of an eye. We have predominately used dull tones to portray the feel of the indie pop genre however this is challenged in some aspects in our music video where we have used glitter and bold colour in some clips, this was done to appeal to women as well as men, as you would associate this things with women.

Music video: There is a very vague narrative shown by the protagonist losing the crystal, it goes through her journey though the music video on her search for the crystal. Her journey is shown by ECU's of feet and clips of moving cars, this was done to create a sense of movement.




We used an image of an eye to tie all three pieces together. The eye has no significance to the music video in regards to the lyrics but it has a deeper meaning as we expressed emotion through the editing, by slowing down the clip and reducing the saturation, this gave a mellow sad feeling which closely portrays the xx  







This is the album cover. The eye is clearly the main part which is the give away that shows this is the linking icon between our media products. It has been edited in a way which again gives off the same feel of the xx which here is shown to be gloomy and sad.

 We have used a colour scheme which is dull and gloomy to follow the same trend. we have placed the album cover in the left hand corner as that is the product we are trying to promote.
