2016 StG A2 blogs

At A2 you produce a portfolio of productions: a promotional package for the release of an album, to include a music promo video, a website homepage for the band, + a digipak for the album’s release. So, that's a music video as your main text, plus two 'ancillary texts' linked to this.

2016 A2 Media Blogs

At A2 you produce a portfolio of productions: a promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music promo video, together with two of the following three options: a website homepage for the band; a digipak for the album’s release; a magazine advertisement for the digipak. So, that's a music video as your main text, plus two 'ancillary texts' linked to this.
