1) Using typical horror film settings like isolated homes to unsettle viewers.
2) Including recognizable props like knives that are associated with the slasher horror genre.
3) Drawing inspiration from other acclaimed horror films like Scream through similarities in title design, stalker/killer costume, and suspenseful scenes.
The document discusses the equipment and software used to create a film opening, including:
- A digital HD camera on a tripod was used to record steady footage and adjust shot types.
- Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects software were used to edit footage, add transitions, create animations, and synchronize audio.
- Additional sounds were recorded to ensure clear audio if camera microphone audio was insufficient or had interference.

The track listing on the back is in the same font as the front cover but in a much smaller size and in white
writing on a black background.
The back cover of the digipak shows people in a laundrette
with things that relate to songs on the album eg. newspaper with a headline that states ‘murder at number
34’ which is a line from one of the songs.
3. Reverend & The Makers
‘The State Of Things’
Digipak
The inside of the digipak is different to the front
cover, track listings and back cover of the digipak as
it contains lyrics in different styles.
The first two pages of the digipak show lyrics on dull
colours eg grey, white and black. The pages in the
middle of the digipak show the lyrics in a very
colourful way eg. pink, back ground and lyrics in
red, white and blue to make up the Union Jack
which represents the patriotic approach to the
album as the album is based on the possible events
you’d relate to the lower class environment of
Britain.
The acknowledgements are written out on the last
two page spread which include the name of the
tracks and who was involved, who the band are,
who was involved in production of the album and
their website address.
This digipak is made up of 8 pages (print on both
sides). There are 12 sides of lyrics as there are 12
songs, 2 sides of acknowledgements and the front
and back cover of the digipak.

compilation album which features 18 of their UK top 40 hit singles.
The front cover of the digipak shows the front man Grant Nicholas jumping in the air with his guitar.
In white capitol letters on the black and white picture it has ‘Feeder The Singles’ written a quarter
way up the cover from the bottom. The band name is much thicker than the title of the album.
The track listing on the back in written in capitol letters with numbers before the song titles.
The band name and album also appear on the back on the top left hand corner.
It is a very similar layout to that of Reverend & The Makers ‘The State Of Things’ track listing.
The back cover of the digipak shows the bassist Taka Hirose playing his bass guitar.
This is also in black and white.
5. Feeder
‘The Singles’
Digipak
All of the images in this CD are in black and white.

various images of the band eg. Posing in a photo
shoot style or playing live on a stage.
This is the same for the middle two pages.

hand side playing live whilst on the right there is a

images in black and white apart from the last page
of acknowledgements.

because they are represented as animated characters.

The front cover of the digipak show the band in their own square on a white background to
make up a bigger square of all four of them.
The band name is written in white capitols at the top of the squares whilst the album title is
shown beneath the squares in white capitol letters.
The track listing is different to the previous two albums researched as the black capitol writing of
the song titles are on a white background.
The number of the track is written in letters before the name of the song.
There are also images of the band on the track listing cover which doesn’t seem to be common
on indie rock albums.
7. Gorillaz ‘Demon Days’
Digipak
This digipak is different to all the others I’ve
analysed as it is one long line of images.
It is of a poster layout instead of a booklet and
each square has an image to represent each
song on the album.
There is no lyrics in the images but the title of the
song is shown in different ways.
The acknowledgements are shown on the back
of the digipak in white writing on a black
background.
The back also has copyrights and a link to their
official website.
I like this digipak as it is visually artistic and is
unusual for an alt rock band to have as the
images are very urbanised.
8. Biffy Clyro ‘Puzzle’
Biffy Clyro are a alt rock band from Scotland and ‘Puzzle’ is there
fourth studio album.
The album cover from Puzzle shows a man with puzzle pieces all
over his body. He is sat down on a wooden stall holding his head in
his hands. One puzzle piece is missing from his body and is on the
floor. There is an open doorway with two people in black dragging out
another man in black.

acknowledgements on the left hand side and the
right it shows a picture of a man with a snake
around his neck with bats flying above his head.
There is writing with more acknowledgements.
The middle two pages of the digipak is a picture of
the band with lyrics to one of their songs on the left
hand page.
The last two pages of the digipak have lyrics to
more of their songs. The image underneath the
lyrics on the left hand side is of the band and on
the right hand side is a zoomed in image of the
puzzle piece on the floor from the front cover.
This digipak is a booklet of 10 pages (20 sides of
images and lyrics and the acknowledgements)
The main theme of the digipak reflects the dark,
mysterious tones of the album. The images are
heartfelt and have a strong link to emotions related
loss of a loved one as this album is based on the
passing of the front man Simon Neil’s mother.
The band’s website isn’t included in this digipak.
10. Kaiser Chiefs ‘Yours Truly, Angry Mob’
Kaiser Chiefs are an indie rock band from Leeds, UK. Their album ‘Your Truly, Angry Mob’ is the
band’s second studio album.
The front cover is very simple as it is a mid shot of the whole band stood next to each other which is
placed at the bottom of the cover whilst the band name and album title is featured at the top of the
cover.
The font used for the album titled is different to the band title as the album title looks medieval but the
band name is in capitol letters in a more simple font but both in a very dark brown colour on the pale
yellow/cream background.
The track listing on the back is different to the others I’ve analysed because the song titles are on the
right hand side instead of the left like the other albums.
The writing is quite small in size and has no coloured fill in the lettering so it is harder to read than the
others.
There are copyrights and company logos on the track listing cover too.

‘Your Truly, Angry Mob’
Digipak
The first two pages of this digipak shows an image of the
bassist going to touch a cactus on the left hand side and

hand pages apart from the middle and last two.
All the left hand side pages apart from the middle and last
two show a picture of a member of the band doing a
random thing eg. looking through binoculars or eating out
of a can of baked beans.
The middle pages show a dark garden with random items
such as a fake dog and a head of a mannequin.
The name of the band features in lights between the
objects. The picture is very dark which contrasts to the
entire artwork of the album because it is very light
coloured.
The back cover of the digipak is also dark like the middle
pages and is of a closer up image of the band name in
lights.
The last two pages of the digipak have acknowledgements
on the left hand side and a sketch of the album cover on
the right hand side.
This digipak made up of 8 pages (16sides) of images and

their album art work.
They all have the album title on the spine along with a catalog number assigned by the record
label so the CD can be tracked.

One CD has the bands logo on the spine (Biffy Clyro’s).

14. Digipak Summary
I have learnt that most digipaks have between 6-10 pages, 2 of the 5 analysed have 8 pages
which have a bit of images as well as lyrics.
3/5 CDs had their barcode on the bottom left hand corner and 3/5 cds had their website
address above the barcode as well as having it on their acknowledgements page inside the
digipak.
The majority of the track listings were on the left hand side in capitol letters with numbers
before the song titles. 2/5 had the artist name and album title at the top of the track listings.
Most of the digipaks had acknowledgements at the back of the digipak except for one who had
acknowledgments on the first two inside pages of the digipak.
Most of the CDs had a black and white theme on the front and back cover.
Most of the track listings were white text on a black background.
All of the spines had catalog codes and the name of the artist and title of the album.
On the track listing cover there were copyrights/rights information in smaller text.
From this information I can design a digipak that will be suitable for my target audience.
