In certain respects the combination of our main product and the ancillary texts is quite effective, yet on the other hand in unison with the genre there is sometimes not the greatest deal of similarity between the video and the print products as often the band members do not feature on the print products except inside the Digi-Pack. However excluding the video the way in which the ancillary texts have been done is very effective, they all clearly follow a strong house style and each of them stick to the pre determined colour scheme of black and green. We even made sure that all of the text was in the same font as well using Photoshop we copied layers from each page to another to make sure that the colour remained the same and the text remained the same colour and font. So the ancillary products themselves are very effective it is clear that they are all from the same band and even the genre itself is obvious through the way they have been put together. Yet despite the fact that on the surface there may seem to be very little similarity between the ancillary products and the main products we made sure that there would be a few links in there in order to ensure that they can be presented as a package, one of the things we did was to use myself as the drummer for the band as we did not have a good picture of the real drummer to use, but also as I featured in the video created one link between the two products. However the best and most effective link it right at the end of the video, first of all the green fire then the emergence of the Vortex logo from that fire.
