Digipak Research

For our first ancillary task, we have decided that we will make a digipak cover to go alongside our music video.

The cover will directly relate to the music video and will show the theme of our music video. We both have the same ideas of how we want our music video to look. This made it easy to decide how we would go about making a digipak cover. We both thought it would be good to have the cover quite dark, as it would convey and reflect the mood of the video and the atmosphere between the characters.

We both particularly like the idea of having a black album cover with white writing, as we think this looks very effective and the writing is very clear. If we then add lighting to the image we think it could look very eye catching, and this theme would go well with the theme of the music video. We also both like the idea of having transparent effects on the cover. The only cover we could find that uses this effect was a Jimi Hendrix cover. We could use this effect to show his girlfriend looking over them.

Here are some album covers that we both particularly like:
