Study Task 9: Final Outcome and Evaluation Design Boards

Today we had our last session for COP, talking about the final two design boards and the brief of the publication.

What is the problem?

The design problem that I'm trying to answer is - How does music genre affect a person's identity

How do you intend to answer it? 

I intend to answer this problem through possibly creating a brand identity for a band or artist which showcases elements of music genres through use of type, colour, composition etc. based on their visual connotations.

Target audience (include reasons)

My target audience are young adults 16 and above who have already 'formed' their musical tastes and likes. They are also the perfect target audience as they may have also formed a certain vision or bias about certain genre's which can help me understand and answer the question better. They may also have exposed themselves to a wide variety of genre's in order to 'know' which one fit their taste and their identity the most, therefore this may lead them to give opinions on why and how they do what they do.

How does this engage with theoretical problem? (essay question)

This engages with the essay question as it tries to challenge/ prove the theories that are brought up within the question. For example, the use of the Internet may have been a reason as to why young people don't show their musical identity through outwardly as they may integrate it more with their virtual self.
