Pitch feedback




After watching our pitch, our peers gave us some feedback.
The general consensus was that, in relation to our digipak design, the fact that it features an unravelling sweater is too song specific for album artwork as it reflects the lyrics in our chosen song, 'If you want to destroy my sweater, pull this thread as I walk away'. Thinking about this my group and I feel that because the theme of 'unravelling' is not just present in one song but consistent throughout the whole album we have decided to keep the original design. This technique can also be seen in other albums within similar genres such Jens Lekman's album: Night Falls Over Kortedala. Here, the artist is featured on the cover having his haircut which is the theme of the song 'Shirin'. Another example of this is Ryan Adam's album: 29, which shows death or 'The Grim Reaper' approaching a house which ties in with the lyrics of 'The Sadness', a song that has the overall theme of the artist meeting death and trying to overcome it, 'Something's at the window, it motions with its fingers calling me beyond'.

As well as this, we need to ensure that we have booked all the college locations for shooting our music video such as the recording studio and the green screen room.
