1st Draft digipak

This is the first draft for my digipak. i have uploaded this in order to receive informed feedback by my peers on ways to improve it which will help me construct a well formed digipak that matches our artist and music video genre.

Album Cover Mood Board

Looking at these magazine covers there are certain aspects each design I would like to incorporate into my own album construction as each one has a particular design choice that will work well with the genre of my artists and his overall design. From “Wretchorespective” I am considering taking the white and black style of the artist itself in the “Wretchrospecitve” album cover the artists has a white shirt but is accompanied with black arms. The white represents the artist good/clean side and the black on his arms represents his dark side and the overall image is that he represents both the good and dark side of music. I think this really goes with our artist who is a young man from the dark side of the roads trying to leave his past behind him and enter a new clean/good life. In regards to the “Grime to five and Are your entertained?” covers I will use the calm facial expressions the artists are showing in my own artist to leave the genre of our music not to be expressed by the artist himself rather by the other designs on the album and digipak. Next is the “sick individual 2 and the play your positions” which I hope to take the effects style from the “SI2” album which appears to be brush artwork effects to simulate movement and emphasis and from the “PYP” cover perhaps use the artist body positioning during my own photo-shoot of the artist as this pose really suits my artist cool image that he has been portraying in the music video. Finally in the “Momentum 2” cover I really like the idea of the colour alteration to the whole artist’s appearance to simplified black and white of different shadings all over the artist’s costume. This really emphasizes the yin and yang aspect of the artist’s I’ve wanted to portray from the very beginning.

Digipak Draft Design

These are drafts for my digipak that I will construct out of these designs. I have put these on my blog in order to gain feedback from others on how to improve on these designs.

Artist's name design

Here I have created 3 designs for my artist's name that will appear on my digipak and album i have also created a voting poll in order for people to vote and choose which design will be used.

Digipak Analysis

Here I had to analyse 3 digipak's in order to view their conventions and hopefully use this as a starting point on both the do's and dont's when creating a digipak.
