Our digipak so far

This is what we have created so far for our digipak. We have included a spine to the digipak and the six sides that the album will have. We are having a front cover, an inside image page, a lyric page of the song that the album is promoting the most (being the 'Alone In This' song that we are making a music video to), the CD case, another image page and the back page for the list of songs that the album includes.We have decided to use the colour grey as the band uses dull colours on their other albums and this has the feel that the song 'Alone In This' has and helps us to create it for the audience. The white writing over the top of the grey helps to bring out the writing more and clearly show the importance of the lyrics within the songs.
The image we have chosen for one of our image pages in our digipak is of the girl in the music video we are making to 'Alone In This' because it has clear emotion and really shows what the song is about and how it is going to make the audience feel when the listen to the song or see the music video. This also shows that there is a music video and make the buyers of the digipak watch the music video if they haven't done it, so there is an element of advertising in the album also. This is a good way of advertising as it is targeting the customers directly as they are the people that will definitely want to watch the music video as they are a fan of the band or the particular song. We haven't got any further with the digipak at the moment as we want to include more images once we have filmed all the footage we want to capture for our music video so we can create it around that and add the best image to the other image page as possible. This will also help us to make the front and back cover of the digipak properly and in the best way we could.

We are having the first page of it as the front cover and having a hand drawn image on the front as this is the same concept that runs throughout all of the band 'The Shape of The Earth' album covers.

We are aiming to create a hand drawn image to go with the song we are doing the music video to, as this what we are calling the album as well. We have the idea to draw a crowd of people as rough drawings in all different, dull effected colours with one of the people just in black. This emphasises the fact that the person is alone compared to everyone else and is one there own even when they are in a crowd of people. This is something we are now aiming to create as our next task in order to get further with our digipak and really make an album that the band 'The Shape Of The Earth' would have created themselves.
