Digipak Draft


Here is my draft for my Digipak. I have not included every element that will be on the Digipak(such as the text) but have included the type of images I will be using to show the style I am going for the type of fonts I like. The quality of two of the images, one being the image of me from behind and the image of my face, are not of a good quality. When it comes to the final, I will take time to edit properly so the images look professional.

I like the colour scheme of black, grey and white as I think it looks simple yet sophisticated. I decided to edit an image so it was just my eyes, mouth and nose that were visible as I thought this stood out and looked creative. I also am happy with the idea of writing across my back on the other image as I thought it looked fairly unusual and eye catching.

From doing a draft its easy to identify what I will change when it comes to the final Digipak and gives me some inspiration and ideas to think about for my final piece of work and how to improve it.

Change Of Name - Again!

We decided that we didn't like the name Ashleigh anymore because it was too long and took up too much of the digipak, poster etc.

Liv said we could use something like 'Coral' as a joke but we then decided we actually liked it and we've kept the idea and used the name 'Coral' on our digipak etc.

But as i was writing this post i realised our video says the name 'Ashleigh' on our video and thats been handed in and can't be changed so we're going to have to keep the name 'Ashleigh'.

Mock ups

Today we took some more photo's of Liv as we felt the last photo's we took were to seductive and didn't give the right impression of Liv. So after taking some more here are a couple of mock up ideas i did.

Britney Spears - In The Zone

Media Album Analysis

Analysis of Katherine Jenkins- Believe

I have analysed this album cover and back to gather inspiration from the album. I love the colour scheme and I think we are going to use black white and grey as our colour scheme too. It looks very sophisticated and simple. I think black white and grey is a very modern colour scheme to use and always looks effective when used. i also like the nature of the images used for this, they are not too revealing and carry Ferguson's theory of the ' Chocolate Box' theory. She still looks very attractive in the images without looking over the top and inappropriate.

Conventions
In the covers shown above, Natashas hair and make-up is very natural. I like this look as it looks simplistic and natural. I think this look would work well for 'Ashleigh' as her music is very soft, There's no tempo, electro beat etc there's just acoustic guitars and pianos. I also like the front cover because it looks different and is very creative. it is similar to the one i designed, and i think we could achieve this style of cover. I also like the way the front cover is very plain and then the back is more colourful and packed. Its different to usual digipaks as it lacks continuity.
