Researching Ancillary products: Previous student work

In today's lesson we were introduced about the creation of our 'Ancillary Product'. Individually we will have to create a digipak as well as advertisement for the music video which we created. 
To help us get started we were shown some examples of previous student's work which all got very high marks. I looked particularly at 3 different student's work because they caught my eye out of the other examples. 

This digipak got 10/10 and the advertisement got 9/10. I particularly liked this one as it's not over done and everything works well together. Both the colour and the font make each other stand out and the panels are thought about carefully and they are different but go with the conventions of the genre. 
This example got 10/10 for the digipak and 8/10 for the advertisement. I also liked this one as synergy is carried from the music video to the album cover with the background being in the park. The effects and the fonts work well together and stand out as well as going with the image of the artist and there is a variety of things on the panels.  
We didn't get the marks for this one but I still looked at it as I might get some ideas to influence my choices when it comes to creating my ancillary product. It includes some of the synergy from my own music video. However, I dislike the fact that the background image looks as if it was taken directly from the music video making it look less professional.
