The name of this album is 'keep calm and carry on'. This is a famous term used in a british war poster. This shows how the poster uses intertextuality to direct the message at the audience. They use the idea of struggle and nationalism to give the public the impression that they are some kind of revolutionists. This helps sell the product by creating a close relationship between the audience and the band. The idea of being calm through the storm is also represented in the photo. They use a modern day convention of eating breakfast at a cafe whilst in a storm / the sea. This creates a contrast and presents us with a very eye catching image. The image is very central and the font is very profound and bold, this not only allows us to see the main focus but it also enables the audience to see when it is being released. These factors help sell the product.

This album poster is not only trying to sell the band but is also selling a product. The font is very big and bold, not only does this help the audience to realise the importance of the band, it is also very eye catching. The colour yellow is used throughout, possibly to represent the bands identity and status. The pack shot of the product itself being shown in the foreground is used to represent the direct message of the album poster, (selling the product). The picture that has been taken also emphasizes the nature of the band. jumping with a guitar is seen to be a common convention of a rock genre. This represents stage presence and confidence.

Location Research
Before filming we thought it was essential to get the right location to fit in with the storyline of our music video. Here are a few pictures that we took whilst looking for the perfect location.
We decided that this would be a good place to shoot a medium long shot of me standing on the balcony overlooking the shop. We chose this place because it represents out motif of green and combines it with our plot of contrast and urbanization. We are planning for this shot to follow one at the park to create a contrast between nature and the city. This fits in with the storyline nicely as the character is experiencing a time of change after separating from a loved one.
This is another shot we were planning to use. We were planning on having a shot of me on the swings with Jessie (my partner) then her disappearing. It is a common convention for playgrounds and places like this to be a remembrance for people who are a bit older. This also combines nicely with the motif of green which in this shot symbolizes life and hope.
We considered shooting here in one of the more emotional parts of the song. Wen accessing the scenery we saw that by the garages there was little light being let through and that there was lots of plants and overgrown foliage. This was a useful place because it could help to create a very sad mood and illustrate to the audience a feeling of sadness. It also slightly shows our motif (the colour green).
