Initial idea for ancillary product- Advert

























This is our group's next idea that by using the british flag with an magnifying glass this amplifies the representation of discovery and conspiracy which links to the main product's conventions. The use of the muse resistance dome also symbolises creation and evolution therefore revealing to the audience members of the true intentions that british culture has offered to individuals of society. The use of dark background makes the atmosphere emotionless and show more discomfort for the audience in order to build inquisitiveness that the discovery is represented as an iconic item of beauty, grace and maturity. This also implies there are greater secrets for human kind to reveal, which is product clearly does, with the assistance of the text entitled "Join the resistance 2012" this influences the audience to become representatives in their conflict for survival and supremacy against the upper class.

Digipack idea from previous initial ideas, developed idea

This is another developed idea that our group have formulated in order to create form and structure towards different aspects of research and planning, also formulating the conventions and ideas for the main product. The use of silhouettes are used for mixed gender between males and females to show variation of gender and sexuality, with the use of graffiti texts in order to represent the lower class's landscape and ideas. The barcode has also been equipped with the russian flag in order to build the ideas of communism and individualism, therefore causing more application of knowledge for our group to raise concerns. the use of the grey brick background also builds the lower class's atmosphere therefore establishing connections and links between the audience and institution. 

Eighth initial idea

This is our next idea of linking the digipack with these different silhouettes. The use of red, white and blue clearly makes references to the british flag therefore symbolising british culture and their patriotism across an more distributed level of development. This therefore influences the audience to consider it more logically and systematic in order to achieve high success. the use of the silhouettes also builds the mysteries and enigma over the lower class's purpose over the conflict between themselves and the upper class. This therefore creates fear and testifies the audience members, this also causes discomfort therefore allowing the influence to spread across to audience members through psychological aspect. 

Seventh inital idea

The next idea is another part of the digipack, that our group are considering using this warning sign to represent the danger and fear that the lower class are expressing through the conflict against the upper class. This is also linked by the warning sing used in the music video, however, the warning sign's purpose is more for representation of post modernism and threat whereas the ancillary product clearly uses the iconic sign to attract the audience to not show interest or contempt. 

Sixth Initial Idea

From this media product created from fireworks, our group has experimented and used a variety of different forms of text to figure out the best representations for the lower class in order to make it more realistic and informal to the audience members. From the product, our group has used a variety of colours such as blue, yellow and green to maintain the abstract expressionism and movement that is currently linked for our media product. By using the band name "muse" as our iconic band, this has allowed to expand our group's thoughts and processes therefore allowing us to think more logically and improve our accuracy of showing high quality of the media products.

Fifth initial idea


The fifth idea is the back of the CD that the the brick background is still used however the product has been included with images of the band used during the music video. This therefore shows that our ideas are clearly linked towards the album covers of the Muse- Resistance cd therefore comparing and containing the alternative rock theme in order to allow potential and representation towards our target audience. While also including the soviet and communist flag, this has also allowed me to maintain the culture and integrity of our group's ideas and theme over the alternative rock genre.

Fourth Initial Idea


The fourth idea consisting of silhouettes and contrast of colours between red, blue and green which clearly links towards the globe ideas therefore maintaining the use of contrast between two different worlds of abstract and normal. The silhouettes builds mystery and questions towards the purpose of the characters for the audience members. The brick grey background has also been used to maintain and ensure that the quality of the product is maintained and controlled. This has also built the theory of Stuart Hall's theory of encoding and decoding that as the audience clearly decodes the poster as an representation of the lower lass, whereas the product decodes it as an gratification of both classes as they both show confusion and question over the authority of the product.
