Because we had used lots of nature imagery in our music video and shot outside, for the most part, we decided that to contrast this we would take photos for our digipack in a studio to help focus the audience of the star and not be distracted by other imagery that we already have in the video. We took advantage of the darkness of the black studio to use bright coloured clothing and props to add a modern and vibrant atmosphere to the photos.  e also did a shoot over the half-term holiday using more props, such as all the clothes worn in the previous shoot spread out around the model to portray the narrative but it didn’t work a well as the image quality was bad as we used a phone with bad lighting.

what went well:

• The orange top and cow print top stood out well in the dark
• The pink glasses were enough to add a pop type feel but not too much to distract the attention away from the star
• The images were good quality and there we used many different angles and poses so that we had lots to choose from
• We used relevant and eyecatching props such as clothes and glasses.

Even better if:

• We may have benefitted more from using the white studio as the colour of the star’s hair didn’t contrast enough with the darkness around her
• The shoot we did during half term was not of good quality as we used a phone camera with flash which caused bad lighting quality.
