Update of the Week

This week the group and I have started to carry out some audience feedback, which I will post at the end of the blog. We have also been considering what design we will have on our album's digipak, and think that we will probably choose something bright. We plan to do a six sided digipak and will be working on it together. We also plan to have our advert follow the same conventions as the digipak.

We have received some useful feedback, and any extra that people can contribute will be very helpful for us. The questionnaire is posted below, so if you have chance to leave a comment, please do.
