Record Label Logo and Band Logo
Record Label Logo
The above image is of an idea for a record company logo. I have chosen to go with the initials EMP which would stand for 'Entertainment and Music Purposes.'
For this logo I have gone for big, bold white lettering on a red background. I have gone for this idea as it has an professional, modern aesthetic - however still maintains a bold, bright appeal which is reflective of the buzzing music and entertainment industry.
The record company name also works for our artist as it states Entertainment and Music. Not only is Ike an music artist but as stated on his digipak he is a Poet.
Although this logo would be printed on other artists work in colour, for my digipak the logo will just be shown as grey lettering, this means the logo will not distract from the predominantly dark tones of the album artwork

Band Logo
We will not have a band Logo as such however much like the record label logo, Ike's logo would be his name in block lettering. This is also seen amongst my digipak and magazine as his name is stated boldly on the works. Another idea may be for Ike's name to always be published in block capitals amongst articles etc... This would emphasise his brand and act almost as a trademark rather than simply his name.

DigiPak and Magazine Advert Conclusion

In conclusion we have decided to have my Digipak as the final draft and Emily's Magazine Advert.
Various feedback informed this decision. We decided to go with my digipak due to the intricate yet minimalistic design. The tones run seamlessly throughout the product and work with the theme of the music/music video. I like the mature design used and think this would be a successful digipak for sales and promotion.
A favourite touch of mine within the DigiPak is the typed note by artist IKE. I think this is an important touch because it emphasises the humble and grateful character that he is.

Emily's final poster also works well alongside the music video and my DigiPak. Emily's poster is seemingly a lot clearer than my own, making it more easily identifiable and readable for audience's. Emily has made use of a bold record logo for the company 'Death Road Records.' To the right of this is two five star ratings via very popular press/magazine companies. These ratings would give the artist a sort of platform - People that would not already know of Ike would now have the expectation of him being a good artist and therefore go on to buy his Digipak.
