Question two

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?H
Both me and my group member Janna, feel that our main product and ancillary texts work well together because there are clear links between both the product and ancillary texts. One of the main reasons as to why they combine effectively is because we have used the same theme of confusion that men have during relationships. To do this we have created a mind bubble which is both in the video and on the poster and CD, the mind bubble in the video changes to images of different girls that the character in our video is thinking about, this is one thing that combines our main product anf ancillary texts because we have also put a mind bubble on the ancillary texts, with images of the girls from the video inside the bubble. The colours used in both our main product and ancillary texts are similar because in the video we have used colours such as red, yellow and green etc. to show envy and danger, we have also got hints of these colours on our ancillary texts because of the colours behind the title of the band on these and also the colours of clothing the girls are wearing in the images. 

We have also linked the inside of the CD case to our main product by having an image of liquid flowing, we have done this because in the video we have got a falling glass with liquid in which is spilling everywhere. It also relates to our main product because of what the song is called which is 'Liquid Confidence'. is

However the person who is on the front of our digipak and poster, is not the character who plays the role in the video, but is the person who sings in the video, we have chose to do to this because it is most commonly known that the singer will be on the front over of the digipaks and posters because these are what the fans will be looking for and will recognise, so we have decided to do it this way so that our 'fans' recognise that this video goes with the singer.
