This document discusses the design choices for various elements of an album packaging and gig poster. For the inside left of the digipack, a subtle photo of the artist was chosen to introduce them. The CD image leaves room for imagination without identifying text. The inside right features the artist playing guitar to indicate the genre as slow and love-related. An extra panel includes forest imagery and song lyrics. The back cover lists songs and includes something new while maintaining the green theme. The front cover stands out with a warmer color and simpler image. The gig poster uses the same font and front cover image for synergy and artist recognition.

2. Box 1 – Inside Left
I used this picture for the inside left
image as in digipacks I have looked
at, most of them have a photo for
inside left.The reason I chose this
image is because it was a obvious
view of the artist and introduces him
to the audience. Also, the photo isn’t
too in your face and is subtle in the
whole digipack.This image is also
useful because it shows features of
the artist that you may not see in
other photos, it also shows the artist
in a similar scene where the other
photos for the digipack was taken.

3. Box 2 – CD
This is a positive image for a cd
and it allows the audiences
imagination to go ‘wild’ when
listening to the music.This image
is also good as it doesn’t have any
text or artist on it, this allows the
audience to know who the artist
are but doesn’t tell them.This can
be related back to the other
pictures of the digipack as they are
all a dominant green colour and
have a forest theme.

4. Box 3 – Inside Right
This image shows the artist in
action whilst shooting, this shows
the type of music that the artist
plays and grabs the audiences
attention if they like that genre of
music. Having a guitar in the
image shows that most of the
songs will be slow and love related.
As this photo will go behind the
CD, I have decided to make it a
simple image.

5. Box 4 – Extra Panel
As this is the extra panel in the
digipack, I have decided to have a
forest and green dominated photo
with some song lyrics, this shows
the relation to the other images in
the digipack.This also gives the
audience the choice based on the
lyrics whether they want to buy
the album.This also shows that
the artist is different and indie
which means he only appeals to
some people.

6. Box 5 – Back Cover
This is the back cover and this
shows the titles of the songs and
the image relates to the album and
artist because it has some forest
and green in it however, has the
inclusion of something that hasn’t
appeared before.This is a good
thing because it shows that the
artist can be diverse and can
include different things within the
dominant green and forest theme.

7. Box 6 – Front Cover
This is the main image for the
digipack as it’s the front cover image.
The images colour has been edited so
it is different from others and it
stands out more.This image is simple
for the fact that it would appeal to
more people with as little. The
colours used it important as although
all other images are dominantly
green, this image is more yellow and
has a warm tint to it.The font is also
important as it is the same colour and
font in all images that have been
used.

8. Gig Poster
The font is the same throughout the
gig poster but also shows synergy
with the digipack as its is the same
font.
The image is the same image
as the front cover of the
album.This is an important
factor whilst making a gig
poster as it allows the
audience to identify the artist.
Again, the font is the same as the
album which shows synergy.This
time it is the same colour which
allows the audience to identify
the artist without hearing their
songs.
