The Digipack

Our first idea for our digipack design was quite complicated, however, we put our best efforts into making it work. The video below explains our idea and shows the behind the scenes footage of the creation of our initial digipack.


However, as you can see from the video and from the image below, our idea hadn't worked out quite how we had expected. Our idea was to join all of the images together to create the cartoon styled sad face that we used on the template, however different sections of the cartoon face were painted onto Rafal's face, however unfortunately a lot of the painted lines did not match up once the images were put together.


Although our initial idea for our digipack did not work as well as we had hoped, we did create a design that we felt comfortable with and felt it was one that would even be a popular choice. This not only was an interesting and unusual album design, but we also felt it reflected some of the emotions that are portrayed in the song we had chosen for our music video. We were able to put some of the images I had taken of Rafal's painted face to good use, as we still decided that this would be a successful album cover.

Below shows the final design that we have come up with using these images:


With the editing to the colour on the images this allows focus to be drawn to certain parts of the images and even allow the album to stand out. We both feel that our album is rather unique and does therefore stand out to the audience. We feel that although our initial idea had not worked as we had expected, that we perhaps have had a better outcome with using only a couple of the images taken.
