'INTRODUCTION FOR TASK TWO'
Hi, I just finished my Task 1 and now I am starting to write a new post for Task 2 . In this Task 2, we need to create our own Cd design cover from 'FIREWORKS' OR 'PHOTOCOPY SHOP' for a new Lewisham Act. First, I need to plan how to create my first Cd design and do research in google for pictures and ideas to recreate from it. The main purpose is to create my own music album cover and I need to make it creative and attractive.
'TASK TWO'-B
STAGE TWO:
In this stage, they chose their drawings to look up the most contrast which the number 1 and 3 which has the most contrast so its best to use it ( later, they chose to do number 4 as well). Then, they had used these drawings to develop them into CD covers and the final designs had to strongly reflect the initial graphic responses.
After brainstorming many different ideas, they decided that whatever they were going to do, it was going to be 3D style.
They got some ideas from Nik Ainley style which the design is shown on the left corner. After they have done a lot of researching for their concept of tune, they started keeping the words for the main attraction on the front cover.
According to the sketches and tune they analyse by keeping the word 'Smooth' for the soft music and the word 'Rough' for the heavy metal music and lastly the word ' Digital' for the electric-sense music. Then, made a separate copy and start doing 3D letters into photo shop and continue in doing designing and illustrating the Cd cover. Finally, theyanalyse and saw their three Cd covers with different effects and illustrations. The final designs they use are different colours according to the feel of Cd covers. The below pictures shows the final design of the different Cd covers including with the album title.( I JUST USE THE ONE CD COVER TO DEMONSTRATE IN THE POST)

'TASK TWO'-A
STAGE ONE:
To create a Cd cover, there are ways in doing thier own creation. Firstly, the object is divided into two sections. In the first section, they created by listening to 4 contrasting pieces of music. Then, took an A4 paper and drew a simple visual language of music. They need to aim a contrast between drawings and what kind of colours and shapes represent in their each type of music.
The picture reflected in creating different shapes and colours just by listening to a piece of music.
After listening to the music the 4 visual responses the layers are drawn. The first layer shows a slow, smooth, soft, calm watery type song.The second layer represents a upbeat funky song.The third layer shows a hard rough death metal rock song and,the last layer shows an electronic digital sounding song.

'Batman Movie'
Today, I watched the video clip of Batman theme (1989) for creating the piece of music. Then, we continue creating our opening theme for batman and even started making the background tune for the batman by keeping melody on it.
I started comparing my tune and the music of batman theme. Then, I started making changes in sounds for my batman theme.
The video clip is from a Batman(1989 film). The film was from the Warner Bros. Label. The movie started from October 1988 to January 1989 and was created at Pinewood studios.It is a superhero film based on the DC Comics character which was directed by Tim Burton. It was produced by peter Guber, Jon peters, Michael Uslan and Benjamin Melniker. The other movies called' Beetlejuice', Batman Returns, Sleepy Hollow, Planet of the Apes and 'Charlie and the chocolate factory' was highly successful and was both financial and critical success grossing million dollars budget worldwide. The starring for the movie were Michael Keaton who had the main role, as well as Jack Nicholson, Kim Basinger, Robert Wuhl and Jack Palance. The music was produced by Danny Elfman and Prince. The running time was 126 min (2 hours and 6 minutes). The Batman movie was highly successful earning over $400 million in box office totals. The film got numerous awards like 62nd Academy Awards, Golden Globe Awards and Saturn Awards. The Second version OF Batman was ' Batman Returns' and was even made in animated series.
The movie plot of the batman is that 'as a child, Bruce Wayne (Keaton) saw his parents killed by a young criminal. He vows to avenge their deaths in a lifelong battle against crime as the disguise of Batman while concealing his secret identity, working in the Wayne Enterprises. Years later, Gotham is under control by crime boss Carl Grissom (Palance). Despite the best efforts of newly-elected district attorney Harvey Dent and police commissioner James Gordon, the police department remains corrupted. Reporter Alexander Knox (Wuhl) and photo-journalist Vicke Vale (Basinger) begin investigating the rumors of a shadowy vigilante figure dressed as a bat who has been terrifying criminals throughout the city'. In the film, the Batman deals with the rise of a powerful villain known as "The Joker."
