Digi Pack Planning- Our Product

We have done a few different shots that we have taken the same day as filming as our actors was wearing the same clothes, his hair was the same and he would look the same. After taking them we decided that it might look better if the front cover for our digipack was a close up of his face. Also have him in different clothes and a different location.

This is an [idea] for the back cover of our digipack. We are going to add the lyrcis on the piano and black out the ceiling reflection.

Digi Pack Back Cover

IDEA?

This is an idea of a back cover we have created in trying to organise our Digi Pack. As we were working on this one we got talking and thinking that we are going to do another photo with the piano keys showing. But when we had the final product we decided this looked quite effective as it is not clear straight away what it is which adds a bit of mystery to the artist. Although we are also going to try this shot with the piano keys on. When we do our final image we are going to try to different ways of having the song list. For example having them going d

                                w

                                n

the piano or across the piano or scattered around the floor surrounding it.

Lesson Question - Mz

What deos this mean for Lady Ga Ga's image and videos- What do they need to have?

Lady GaGa is obviously extremely famous not just for her edgy and sucessful songs but for the way she dresses and presents herself. She is known for her Wacky costumes and shows more than anything.
However this Star Image of hers is her absolute life and soul of her career in my opinion. I think that without this she would be no where near as sucessful.

So our discussion was: if she changed her image due to boredom or lack of originality would she be as popular.

Before Fame

Well.. she obviously has all of her fans who she brands her "monsters" and as being full on, life long GaGa fans they should stick by her in whatever she chooses to do but if she does change then surely she isnt what her fans were originally appealed to. So if fo some reason she did change i think she would loose a large percentage of her fan base as she is no longer what they fell in love with. However she may build up a new fan base of different people who now like the new her. Therefore this could be a sucessful decision but it would have its risks and if she for some reason didnt build a new fan base I think her career would be heading to an end.

I think someone like lady GaGa has to thrive off her fans and in order to do this she needs to stay as she is with her wacky costumes etc. The only change i think she could afford to make would be to brand herself as being more odd and by creating other costumes etc even more extreme than her ones today.

Tried being famous as "herself" but didnt get anywhere as she seemed boring with no STAR IMAGE.

NOW. Lady GaGa a world wide weird phenomenon. Dressed in meat and on the front cover of VOGUE.
