I feel that the combination of our ancillary and main product work strongly as a pair, and that they compliment and enhance one another. We have tried to keep an established, recognizable and constant theme in a number of ways. Firstly, as the narrative of our main product was filmed outside we thought that we should repeat this through our ancillary products. The photographs on the album cover and poster are all located in the same place, starring shots of grass, trees and woodland, as shown in the video! We have made sure that our character (Sophia) is dressed and styled in a similar way during ancillary and video, therefore creating her an image that will appeal to the same audience in both products.
We have used a constant colour theme throughout both products. To do this we have used the 'eyedropper' tool on Adobe Photoshop cs4 which allows us to share the exact shades of colours between products.
Personally i would say that the video has less of a link to our poster and album cover, however in real media texts this is quite common. This is because our video is based on one song from an album. If all the songs had exactly the same theme it would become repetitive and boring. I think our album cover is sufficiently representative of our video.
