Introduction: Course Overview

In total, the course offers 4 avenues for practical tasks, being:

  • Music Promotional Package
  • Short Film Package
  • Documentary Package
  • Film Promotion Package


Short Film Package:

Requires students to create a short film of approximately 5 minutes, a website regarding its release, and a postcard advertisement for a (hypothetical) film festival.

Documentary Package:

We have to create an original, 5 minute long TV documentary, along with a website and a poster.

Film Promo Package:

The second most appealing task for me personally, where we have to create a package for a new film, including 2 trailers, accompanied by a website and a poster for the film.

However, as previously mentioned in my introduction post, I'll be creating a music promotional package, more specifically a package promoting the release of an album, said package will include

  • Music video between 2-4 minutes
  • Social Media page
  • Digipak (CD art, album cover, DVD cover, etc)

My product branding was mainly based on treating the artist as the image of the brand, showcasing him in all aspects of the promotion, to make the artist more like a "household name" in the music industry, in that everyone knows his face and name even if they don't listen to him music. I also used repetition as my branding, using similar elements and typographical styles when making promotional material so that people recognize the artist's distinct style when viewing, maintaining the "Arial Bold" font throughout the social media promotional material and the digipak. Through consistent imagery and tone across several platforms and mediums, the messages and core values of the brand and artist are relayed directly to the audience. This spread of influence the brand has on the feed of the audience allows for brand recognition amongst the general public, and amplifies expos...
