How effective is the combination of your main products and ancillary texts?


I decided to ask Sarah Worral, a 17 year old college student who categories into my primary audience, her opinions on my products in order to discover if they worked well together. As I myself can justify and reason my decisions, given that they were my ideas.








  • Do you believe that my music video, digi pack and poster work well together?
Yes as the artist's contrasting appearance against a floral background is given a reason, which is portrayed within the video. The CD shows the artist on a floral back drop even though she does not seem that girly, as she is wearing dark eye makeup and black clothing,this diversity between characteristics is then shown through the video as she applies makeup yet is seen doing more rebellious things such as smoking and drinking alcohol.
  • Do you believe that my artist's persona, an alternative teenager who avoids ideologies, is clear? 
Very clear, through the poster / video as they are clearly structured, which highlight the artist's different personas. She seems to do what she wants, for example smoking and drinking. Her boldness may prove to be role model for other teenagers who are listening to the music of this artist as they might gain confidence and not mind about other people's criticism/opinions of them.
  • Have you seen any artists who are branded in a similar way, or are my products unique?
I haven't seen many portrayed in the same way, I believe it is unique and changes from the norms of music within the charts. It is different compared to most artists you see now as the usually wear minimal clothing and are overly sexualised, whereas she is more dignified which sets a good message for teenage girls.
  • What is your opinion on my artist? 
I believe the artist is good as it will relate to a teenage audience, and create a connection. The artist is expressing the need to stand out and not fit in with the crowd, to just be yourself and do what you want to do, a valuable lesson or message for teenagers nowadays.
