Typography
There was a variery of different fonts that could be used in the production of my Digi Pack. This has been shown in the above image. However. I have choosen to use the font AR DESTINE. This is as it is a sans serif font presenting my artist as being both masculine and powerful. It is also very bold making it stand out. This font has been shown in the above gif.

Digi-pack ideas 1
One of the main ideas foe my Digi pack is to have a black and white background of a city. This would directly link to the overall theme of my Digi pack which is looing back on Hackim's life. Having it in black and white can be used to signify the past how gloomy it was in comparison to his future.

Casting Changes - Female Lead.
Due to uncontrollable reasons the actress for the music video has been changed. This beautiful young lady is Leloo. We felt as if Leloo would be the best lead for our music video as she is both beautiful and confident. Being in front of the camera seems to come naturally to her and this should be very helpful in terms of producing a realistic music video. Although we were not able to carry out market research on Leloo. It is clear that from her 1000 + followers of the same age of our target audience and the likes and positive comments she gets on her social media page that she would be a perfect fit!

Introduction Script
This is the script for the introduction of my music video. This is as my introduction will be an argument so it is essential that the models get scripts so that they know exactly what they need to say.
Audience Feedback - Models
I have chosen to use social media as audience feedback on my models. In particular Instagram, this is because social media accounts reach a wide range of people. It allows comments to be made on images and videos. Also it is stereotypical that young people use social media the most. Which is my target audience. Above is some of the comments left on my models social media accounts. All of these comments were positive showing that they were both good choices.
Costume

Audience Feedback - Locations
A range of people were asked what they thought of my individual locations and how they could be improved. The comments that I received were largely positive and included people asking how they could visit there themselves. However, they did think that some of the locations that we had chosen were quite far away and may be difficult to get to. For this reason in my model meeting I will be discussing with each of my models if the locations are convenient for them. Additionally 3 of our 4 group members drive. So if there are any problems we will be able to pick up our models.
Location Ideas
This post shows the ideas for the location of my music video with images and short explanations.
