Same as the others. Shows a list of artists that are signed to the label and the minor labels it owns. Also has a background summary of the label.
ReplyDeleteCould add an image of the label logo and of an artist that is signed to the label.
Good work. Make sure all the writing is in your own words and not copied and pasted directly from the company website without referencing. http://www.emimusic.com/about/ it may seem like a minor thing now, but if you do this at university you will be severely penalized.
ReplyDeleteThe reason we've asked you to look at the different record companies is to see how different labels, or imprints of the bigger labels cater to specific genres of music. You mention Capitol Nashville as an imprint of EMI. Does it cater to a specific genre? http://www.capitolnashville.com/
What imprint (or smaller label) would your artist sign up with? You will have to include their logo on your final album cover and advert.
Overall your blog is getting there. You still need to fill in a few items from the check list. 6 and 7 (Rock Video Analysis) 10 and 11 (Editing Theories, if you've not gone through these yet come and talk to me) 14 (Genre Research) 17 (Advertising Research) 18 and 19 (Audience Research). TME
