DigiPak Ideas

When thinking about what we wanted to acomplish from our digipack, we firstly wanted to look at some different album art works which could give us some inspiration into what we want to achieve on our own digipack.  Recognising the genre and the artist we wanted to keep the digipack simple. To keep continuity throughout this we can't have alot happening on the digipack.

 Because of the genre, we want to keep it simple and to focus mainly on the atrist and make the video more lyrical based. By focusing more on the artist and the acoustics sound it makes the video and digipack connect together with a link. The simpleness of the video being both story based and focusing on the artist in the chorus playing the guitar, also relates to what is wanted to be done on the digipack.

These two album covers are rather simplistic, but draw attention to the genre. Emeli Sande album cover relates to her music video. This simple effect with the clouds will be quite easy to re-create by adding effects in photoshop to the images we take. Kayne West album 'Runaway' with a ballet dancer in view is different to the genre you would expect to see him in as it is going agains the conventions of 'rap' and 'pop', however it is allowing the audience to be inquistive toward this CD.

This was an album advertisement in a music magazine, however the same image was used for her album. I really like this advert as it highlights all the important bits without bombarding you with too much information. The image and font work well together! I love the different red shades used throughout the advert, and the side shot of the artist.

These two album covers are by Shikari. They chose to do a different digipak with over 6sides. I really like the top image as the natural setting is stunning. I feel that our digipak could relate to this one as our genre, artist and song are very natural and we are trying to strongly get this across to our audience. Our shots should be taken outside, in a desserted location, to give the feel of freedom.
