Project Report-Artefact
Principle Learning - Unit 7 - Project Report
Exam period week beginning 10th May 2010
The subject of my project report will be the work from Unit 3 - Artefact.
(Describe what the brief for this was)
Introduction:
Unit 2 - Performance
Unit 3 - Atrefact
Unit 4 - Record
The brief for unit 3 Artefact is that the project report I am doing is the Cd cover survey. Particularly, Doing this task was to find people’s different views and opinions what they think about my Cd cover and how well I have made to make my Cd cover outstanding for the audience.
The most important part for this project report is to improve my research skills. In this project report the basic things I need to collect my research skills are to carry out a survey, communicating with people and doing interviews so that it will be a lot easier for me write the people’s stasitics to level up my confidence and able to write a proper report for my Cd cover survey.
Section A - Resources:
(Research)
First of all, while I was doing my first primary research I decided to make my own survey related to the Unit 3 Artefact where I decided to do a project report about Cd cover. I created 11 simple questionnaires to let people understand the questions while filling their answers and write what they think of my Cd cover. From there I distributed the survey to the classmates first and later decided to do give it to some people from outside college so that I could know what their views and opinions on my Cd cover survey is. Normally from my class out of eight students, five were female and three were male. Many of them were from 16-18 age group and few of them were of 19+.
Basically from outside college, I decided to do at the St. Pauls Cray Library where many people come to read and do their own work so I thought it was the best idea to give them to fill up my questionnaires. At that time many women were present than male so I gave to all the women who were present in there and told them it was my coursework so they all agreed to do. After collecting the surveys from them, I found out many of them were from 19+ age group.
In my second primary research, we given a task to interview Mr. Richard who was a teacher in our college. As part of the creative media project report the class interviewed Mr. Richard who introduced himself and started giving a speech about the Cd cover designs and other things like talking about pop singer Michael Jackson, downloading in ITUNES, listening to songs and watching videos in youtube and even talked more about other things. In the middle of the speech, we did answering the questions with Mr Richard and again he continued with his speech.
For my third primary research, I did a survey to find their different views and opinions regarding the the Unit Artefact where i chose to do the Cd cover. The questionnaire survey which subject tutor gave us a hint to create our own questionnaires. We all agree to do what the tutor told us and created the questionnaires. In first I made nearly 16 questions but made some changes and cut down some questionnaires to make a lot easier for the people to understand and answer the questions easily. The title for the survey was “Unit 7 : Project Report”. Basically, the sub-heading was “Artefact Cd Cover Survey” The questions were referring to the sub-heading containing the questions about the Cd cover from Unit Artefact . After making the survey I handed out the questionnaire to my classmates from my media and creative diploma class and and even some people from outside college to see their own views and opinions.
In this question 1, they were asked to tell their gender. Basically, this question is reliable because its necessary to know which gender is from.
In this question 2, they are asked to mention their age group so that I would know what kind of age group people would like or dislike about the Cd cover I made. Probably this question is simple and in fact reliable because the question itself shows that what kind of age group would prefer the style of Cd cover.
In this question 3, they were asked what kind of gender attracts the style of Cd cover. I think the question is good because I would know which kind of gender prefer the Cd cover.
I think this question 4, is quite necessary for the people who did my survey because they would write their own views and opinions when they first sight the Cd cover.
Likewise in question 5, its referring the people whether they have their likes and dislikes about the Cd cover. The question is also quite necessary because they would write their own views about the Cd cover whether they like some part and dislike other parts of the cover.
From question 6-10, the answers for all the questionnaires are to agree or disagree. In more basic way, the questions are practically good because they could say what they agree and disagree. In question 6, the question asked about whether they like the pictures or not. In question 7, its asked about the background image whether the images of the Cd cover fits with it or not. In question 8, its asked whether they would prefer the Cd cover attractive or bad. In question 9, they are asked to answer whether the back Cd cover and front Cd cover fits with each other or not and finally in question 10, its asked whether they would buy it or not if they pass through the store.
Lastly, the question 11 is just to comment and write their own views and opinions about the Cd cover.
Section B - Evaluation:
(Report)
In my first primary research, Mr Richard introduced himself and gave information about Cd cover designs, Michael Jackson, downloading and more other things.
Firstly, He talked about the rock band ‘Paramore’ Cd cover and music. He showed us the design of the cover and style of music. Later he showed and talked about the music video and the website for different artists and bands. He told us about the definition of record and how it works along with the credit. He talked about downloading legally in ITUNES means buying with money online because nowadays people prefers the free downloads from other sites which is not legal and not acceptable for the laws. He even told about the website ‘Youtube’ where people listen and watch videos. He spoke about the late king of pop ‘Michael Jackson’ from the music industry about his music and style he contributed to the world. He even talk about some directors, producer and singers who are gradually getting famous and the money they earn will be distributed within them. He told us that about how to download songs in MP3. After he gave his speech, he gave his introduction and his work in the past years as a teacher and after. He told us about his salary which is £28 per hour. After he gave his speech and introduction, he told us to research the band designs and art worked done by them and see the layout how they used, how big the log they have used and focus on how they do that. He reminded us that we should know what we are doing and thinking of getting new ideas in making the Cd cover. During the speech, we asked him some questions regarding the Cd cover designs and other things . His answers were quite reliable and didn’t hesitate to give us a good answers.
In my second primary research, the survey I gave to the people from outside college and the classmates from the class did what they were asked to do. it was really hard giving to people from outside because i felt very shy but they all accepted to do my surveys.
More formally, from inside the college the survey i gave them was quite varied due to their own views in some questions.
In question 1, Out of all people from inside and outside college 5 were female from the class and 16 female from outside. As for males 3 were male from inside but none of the male from outside. In regarding the answer, both from inside and outside majority of female than male were there to do the survey.
In question 2, out of 8 people 7 people were from 16-18 age group and 1 person was from 19+ which is from inside the college as for outside 12 people were 19+, 2 were from 16-18 age group and 2 were from 11-15 age group. The answer is quite in contrast because many people were from 19+ and 11-15 age group was quite few.
In question 3, From both inside and outside college majority people said ‘both’ because the Cd cover has the style which attracts both male and female. Some people from inside the college preferred ‘female’ due to girlish style of music and images in the Cd cover. I would say the answer is quite reliable as I also thought it was quite for both male and female aspects for my Cd cover.
In question 4, many people have gave their own views and opinions in this question like some said its unique and some said it has the gothic/rock style of music and some said they like the contrast between light and dark contrast. The answer was quite good and bad because the first impression they saw is quite edible and different. More formally, both from inside and outside referred in different views as the answers were normally same from both the sides of the people.
In question 5, the way the people wrote is quite interesting because the answers are completely different and what they likes and dislikes is quite good. Majority of people from both inside and outside college said they like the contrast between angel and devil, features and style. In dislike, majority of them said they didn’t like the darkish and scary concept which normally many people didn’t prefer in these days. So, I would agree to this answer because the word they describe for my Cd cover is quite true due to heavy style of my Cd cover.
In question 6, out of 8 people from inside the college 6 of them said ‘yes’ and 2 people said ‘no’. As for outside the college, out of 16 people 13 of them said yes and 3 people said ‘no’. In my opinion, the pictures may reflect some poeple as for other it would probably find it bad due to darkish concept used in the cd cover.
In question 7, out of 8 people from inside the college 5 of them said ‘yes’ and 3 people said ‘no’. As for outside the college, out of 16 people 13 of them said yes and 3 people said ‘no’. Regarding the answer, i think the answers are quite varied because majority referred the background fitting with the images in the cd ocver but few disagree due too musch of colours being used.
In question 8, out of 8 people from inside the college 4 of them said ‘good’ and 4 people said ‘average’. As for outside the college, out of 16 people 10 of them said ‘good’ and 6 people said ‘average’. In my own views, I think the answer is varied due to many of them said ‘good’ but in some cases many said ‘average’ because the answer in agreeing and disagreeing which is quite interesting for me as its their own choice in answering what they think about the cd cover.
In question 9, out of 8 people from inside the college 7 of them said ‘yes’ and 1 person said ‘no’. As for outside the college, out of 16 people 7 of them said ‘yes’, 8 people said ‘maybe’ and 1 person said ‘no’. This question is quite necessary because the front and back Cd cover is quite different due to different images and and in my opinion the answers are quite true.
In question 10, Majority of them said ‘no’ from inside and outside college because many of them suggested the style and theme of my Cd cover was not quite their style of music they want due to its look it had the feeling of dark and hard rock style of music than R‘N’B/HIPHOP style of music genre which nowadays many people listen to that kind of music songs.
Lastly, I think the last question is quite different and basically I want people to write what they want to say in their own views and opinions for my Cd cover. Basically, many commented that liked it but in some cases people didn’t like the design and features of the cover due to images and fonts used are like the rock music and completely have mystery and emotional concept. In regarding the answer, i think its true because i would probably say the Cd cover has emotional and sad songs but in heavy and rock genre style of music.
(Evaluation)
Doing this project report, the most difficult part was the research and report because in research the difficult part was to give survey to people from outside the college which I didn’t like the idea at all but it was a coursework so I have to find people a lot as for report we have to write a lot of information regarding the question surveys done by the people from inside the college and outside the college. The other thing I was not able to do a proper report is that I was not present in the interview but got some information from my classmate so that i could write for my primary research in both the section A and section B.
OveralI, I would say my project report is average. If I were to prepare a new one I would like to make my planner for my project report in a specific and understandable way so it would be easier for me to write my report and fully prepare my answers in a good way.

Reliability of My Research
Secondary Sources:
For my secondary sources, I researched the information by using an internet. Firstly, I research on range of music jobs in an internet normally on www.wikipedia.co.uk site to find some information because many people rely on this site due to having definitions on a hyperlink therefore some of the meanings for the words was quite hard to understand so I just wrote the name of the career and click on it and there the different sites were shown in the screen. I randomly chose some of the sites and used some details about the careers.
