We all brought in our groups drafts for magazine adverts as well as our completed digipaks, to show how the two share brand identity and match in terms of themes and colours. The group gave feedback on each persons designs for the magazine adverts, this is what the group had to say about our digipak and magazine advert ideas/design. 
The class generally liked the digipak and its use of black colour filter around the images, this theme is in keeping through all of the digipak and the magazine advert. They also liked the inside picture of the band and the front cover of the cracked glass screen. Some constructive criticism for the back cover of the digipak was that some people thought that the track-list was a bit too uniform and un-stereotypical of the convention in our genre. In conclusion, the class helped us decide upon the magazine advert that was the favourite, so it was easy to chose which one we were going to use.
This is the final design which follows closely one of the original pitched ideas for the magazine advert, its been tweaked slightly and improved with an eye-catching colour palette and bold titles and great brand identity being carried across between the digipak and the magazine advert. Keeping the same album cover in the advert but as an actual CD case and a similar kind of background, but changing the glass shattered picture to have a hand coming through it with the album in his grip.
