digipak continuation

I had an array of different photographs from the video shoot that I liked, and firstly tried to create the digipak on an online template, but that wouldnt save and had to infact be copyrighted as possesion of the website, so I decided to copy a template into photoshop and work over that. All the different colours didnt mix together well so I decided to only use photographs from the beach scene.

I firstly put in all the final beach photographs and saw how they looked together. All the different photos made the digipak look to ameture and it wasnt interesting enough. With the help of Phil's brain, I decided to have interesting angled shots of only sections of her in each cover of the digipak. A 4 panel digipak also worked out to be more effective. As you can see below I started to crop the photos of her in interesting and different ways. I really liked the effect that this gave the digipak as it made every page quite mysterious and insteresting, which is how we want to portray our artist.

Upon hearing feedback on the digipak prototype above the audience said the text needed to change and the front cover blue background was different to the rest. These were things I had to change. Below you can see my progression. I tried out different texts that were clearer yet still girly. I then cropped round Emmas face on the frount cover, and deleted the background. I copied a section of color from the other backgrounds and them pasted Emmas face ontop to creat the right color background.

I also tried to test whether the digipak would look better in black and white, but it turned out that we want Emma to be portrayed as fun, flirty and excited also, and the colours in the beach photographs enhanced her fun personality.

 

For my final digipak I changed the text and background colours, changed the song names and album name, and I also have to add the barcode and production logo. I looked at other digipaks like Kelly Rowland and Jo Birchall to see their production companies and the copyright details the have to put on the digipak.
