My final Ideas/Genre

WebpageThe web page will be dark, with contrasting colours ie White and Black, Black and red etc. There will be a band photograph as the center of attention of the webpage with information like concerts, product releases, merchandise, video releases etc. These are the common conventions of rock bands homepages, dark colours and band pictures. But also these are the key conventions of a website for a band; key dates for the band including products, music and video releases, pages to merchandise, band photographs to put a face to the name. In addition there will be an about us section as fans often enjoying knowing a bit personal stuff about the bands they like.

The CD Cover

The cover of most rock band CD’s aren’t images of the band, there is more of a pop music convention. Typically the cover of albums for rock bands are drawings or some form of graphics. Very simple, but eye catching and often conceptual. The front of the CD will have the name of the band and the name of the album and thats it, the back will have tracklist, and more information about production companies etc.

Music Video

The music video will follow similar convention and styles to the examples of my other two products. The theme of the video will be dark and dystopian. I will use dark contrasting colours and have a heavy use of shadows. The video will also feature the band, to conform with conventions of a rock band music video.
