Write-up of client feedback
I have met with the client and discussed my work with him. He has said that the budgeting and the production plan were of a good standard and that they were fairly accurate cost estimates. However he was disappointed with the quality of the product drafts. He said that I should change the design and work hard to get the final products up to a standard worthy of the band. He also said that there was a lack of continuity between the three products. Another thing that the client mentioned was the fact that the album cover did not really tell people what sort of band Linkin Park were. I have taken his feedback as constructive criticism and I am beginning to redesign the products. I plan to make my products look more professional and to create continuity between them perhaps by having a similar image on each. I also want to give people a feel of the kind of band that Linkin Park are.

Budgeting
Cost of photographer:
The cost of the photographer will depend on the quality that we want and how long we will require the photographer and their equipment for. We will want high quality pictures and enough time to make sure that we get a suitable picture for the poster and one sheet so I will set a budget of 600-£700 for the photographer. Additional funding is available if it is needed.
Cost of graphic designer:
We will need to hire somebody to design the tour poster and the CD. I will create the One Sheet myself as I can discuss with the band what information they want to be included on the One Sheet and the picture of the band will already be available. I want the tour poster and the CD to be very high quality so I have set a budget of £7000 for this. As with the budget for the photographer, there is more money available if it is required.
Cost of printing:
5000 A4 Pages - £150
10000 A4 Pages - £300
15000 A4 Pages - £450
20000 A4 Pages - £600
Estimated Cost (Total) = £8600

One Sheet Draft
This one sheet will be sent to radio stations and any music publications along with the album. Its purpose is to inform people about the band as well as promote them to the radio station or magazine.
