Digipak Ideas:

After searching through many digipak ideas (particularly from our music genre), I have tried to create various Digipak ideas on Photo-shop and individual drawings. After constructing these various album/Digipak covers, I believe the images used will give all of our group a range of entropic ideas, and after comparing each others ideas, we will hopefully gain a quality piece of work. I also believe that in the making of our Digipak design, it is important to relate colour and Font layout to fit our genre of music, and thus will be experimenting with a variety of vintage/retro font sizes and layouts, as well as distort and rough colour use.




1) As you can see from this 1St Digipak cover design, I decided to take on board and include a variety of Traditional British objects, such as a 1960's Lambretta, Victorian terraces and the use of black and white imagery. Although this may across as relatively quite amplifying and unique, I tried to maintain that modern and indie feel to it, for example included all the band members wearing daily 'indie' clothing, whilst one band member was slightly dressed in a morph outfit. Balancing both modern and historic/traditional ideas with one another, I believe this will enable us attract both target markets, young and old and from a wdie range of backgrounds on the Jicnar scale.

2) As you can see from the second Digipak cover I have created, I wanted to create a unique and amplifying Digipak cover, and thus the thought of a 'Where's Wally' idea, featuring small objects of morph characters would be very appealing to our target market. I believe it had a lot of advantages such as comedic, unusual and very original, but after a long conversation with my other group members, suggested it may be too hard to draw each and every small character to such fine detail. I believe that creating a much simpler design, even with a range of entropic features such as colour and strange clothing will hopefully attract and generate a much more 'indie' and small/niche target market.
