Final Ancillary Products
Here below are my final Ancillary Products which I have changed and manipulated by the feedback from my fellow classmates which I felt was really good feedback and allowed me to make my end products look better than they previously did. I will also be describing what I did and didn't change and why.
Final Digipak
Front Cover
I changed the oval which presents the artist name and album to look exactly like their logo that they use on their clothing merchandise and other things including tickets etc. I feel that this looks a lot better both quality and colour scheme than the previous front cover. Some may argue that pink doesn't fit the genre but pink is indeed one of their common colours for clothing and in their logo etc.
Back of Front Inside
I decided to take one of my classmates requests into consideration, by add 4 more photos of the band into this part of the Digipak instead of one, to make it Digipak look a lot better. These photos have titles below them describing where these photos were taken. They are some of the performances they have done around the globe.
Spine
I did indeed add the album title with the artist name within the one spine which was according to my classmate 'The important spine' as it is usually displayed when stacked on a shelf etc. I agree that It looks a lot better without having it stretched onto the smaller spine.

Magazine Advert
Artist Name & Top part of the Magazine
I removed the bar at the top which one of my classmates requested which made my advert look like a 'retro gaming' magazine and made the font of the artist name a lot bigger, so that it would stand out from the album name at the bottom.
Star Ratings
I removed the 4 star rating in a heartbeat after realising that this rating would indeed make someone question my product. Also so that the ratings didn't overlap onto the character at the front of the magazine, leaving me with 3 ratings which I feel is enough.
QR Code
It took some time to figure out how to fit the QR code at the bottom without messing anything up. I had to shrink the social media links slightly and move them to the left. This did give me some extra space to insert another social media link which I did (Instagram). I also had to experiment with the album name and song, moving it so that It wasn't close to the QR Code, the social media links and the face of the character, not covering him too much.
Song Name
I tried to make the outline a slightly better and asked my classmates for a second opinion. All of them apart from the person who made this claim disagreed with their point that my song title wasn't clear and said it looked fine. Later on I asked the person if they thought the same way as they did before and they said that their comment was indeed harsh and said it looked fine. Therefore I didn't change much of the song title other than changing the opacity slightly of the stroke of the song title.
