Evaluation Q2 How Effective is the combination of you main and Ancillary text?
Links Between all products
• Throughout the entire journey of creating my groups three final products, I have tried to make sure that there have been links between all three to enable me to be able to show synergy.
• The connection between the Digipak and Magazine Article is the locations. With the Digipak the front and back covers contrast as they represent day and night. The night half directly link to the magazine advert because both images have come from the same photo shoot that took place at Northolt hills.

• The connection between the two ancillary texts and the music video are also very direct. All the locations used within the music video are same locations I used for the music video The Front cover presents Piccadilly Circus the day aspect of the music video and the Back cover and Magazine Article present a part of the night aspect of the video.
• I believe that the ancillary text give the audience a context of the music video by presenting the locations and a sense of the genre by the brightness, by even the night images.
Reflection • Overall, I am please with my three final products because of the
originality of them, whilst still maintaining the conventions of the genre. I am also happy with the three product because of the positive responses I received....
• “I would give it a 10/10.”• “I like how all of the effects help link the products together.”• “There are many references to the actual song (Light Up The Sky)
by you showing night and day in the music video and CD.”
• The only negative piece of feed back we received was that our magazine advert didn't follow the structure that all magazine adverts do, which is that they are portrait.
• However during my research I came across many successful albums that that used a horizontal structure instead.
