Ancillaries: Final Ancillary Feedback.

14:09

After creating my final Ancillaries  I decided to get some final feedback on the outcome. I held a small discussion group of 4 people and passed around the hardcopy version of each ancillary. After letting everyone have a look at the outcome, I asked everyone a few questions and we discussed the outcome together. I noted down answers to the questions and anything else discussed that was useful to me.

Here were the main questions asked:

What is your favourite part of the products?

  • 'I would say my favourite part is the drawing of the hands because it's original'.
  • 'My favourite part are the theme of flowers throughout'.
  •  'I really like the colours because they are unique'.
  • 'I think the whole think looks really professional'.

Is there anything you would improve?

  • 'No, not really I think you've pretty much got everything you need'.
  • 'I would've maybe added some more art on the inside cover of the Digpak but I can see why you've kept it simple'.
  • 'No nothing at all'.
  • 'No, it's perfect.'

Do you think it fits into the genre of Indie?

  • 'Yeah it does because it's really unique'.
  • 'Yes I think it does'.
  • 'It definitely looks very indie'.
  • 'Yeah because that's the genre I associated with it looking at it for the first time'.

How effective is the Digipak?

  • 'Really effective, I can see the look you were going for and you have achieved it.'
  • 'It is a bit simple but yeah I think that's a good thing'.
  • 'Yeah it is effective and looks real'.
  • 'It's got a really good appeal to it.'

Do you think the imagery used is appropriate for the type of media?

  • 'I think you took a risk with using illustrated drawings rather than a photo of the artist but I think it's genre appropriate'.
  • 'Yes definitely, I love the hands and the flowers'.
  • 'Yeah it's appropriate'.
  • 'I really like the whole look of it.'

Does it look authentic?

  • 'Yeah it looks like a typical indie cover and advert'.
  • 'Yeah it's something I would expect to see in a store or magazine'.
  • 'You've got really strong products'.
  • 'It's really authentic'.
What do you think of keeping a similiar design on both products?

  • 'I would've the same sort of design yeah'.
  • 'I think it's good and will help emphasise the appeal of the artist.'
  • 'I think it will help with the image yeah'.
  • 'It might come across as either repetitive or show consistency'.
