Journey of the digipack

this is a presentation i made showing the direction and the progress of the digipack. I have shown changes we have made and problems we have faced and have had to change as a result.

alternate digipack

George has also made a digipack to show that we have also looked down alternative routes for it. However he has used the same theme as mine he has used images of his own.  I personally really like the head and shoulders shot and have used this in our final digipack design.

Digipack first daft feedback

George has created a prezzie  showing the feedback that we got on the first draft of the digipack  that i created. I am very pleased with the feedback that was given as we got a nice mix of constructive criticism and praise. I have taken the criticism on board and have taken action accordingly

FINAL DIGIPACK

This is the final digipack outcome. As you can see we have gone with the the "cosmos" as a theme throughout the design process. After getting a lot of feedback from others  about the digipack i found that everybody loved my design ideas and  the direction I was taking it in. I have changed the digipack according to the constructive criticism that was given.  People fed back to me saying that they could hardly see the text on the track list because the text was translucent. I changed this by making the background darker and the text much lighter, the contrast helping to show off the text much more clearly.

I also changed one of the photo panels by replacing it with a much clearer picture of cosmo. This  was created by George when he made a trial digipack in order to show a different take on the digipack. Luckily the colours went very well with the rest of the digipack  because of the use of fucia and purple. I changed this because people said  that they couldn't distinctively see cosmo within the picture.

track list

This is the improved track list. i had to change this because people were finding hard to read  the text. For this reason is changed the background as well as white highlights throughout the text. This has cleared up any confusion and also ties in better with the rest of the digipack

UPDATE DIGIPACK

I have redone the front cover and the cd cover, all i have left to do now is the song list an the digipack will be completed.

CD for cosmo digipack

Updated digipack

I have updated the digipack after considering changing the name and song list. I have finished a part of the album art. All that needs to be done now is the songlist and front cover which will be done very soon. I feel that this new album art ties in better with the rest of the album than the other peice did. The colours tie together better and you can see that this is all part of the album.

spectacle

Replacement for "Happy" after looking into things we deicded it would be the best decision to change the name of the album and the songs. We can up with the name spectacle. Spectacle means something to be big and flamboint. This is how we want Cosmo to be represented. This is not the front cover however this will replace some album art that says the word happy.

digipack rough draft

This is a rough draft of our digipack. Since creating the digipack we have decided to change the name and the song list for this reason all we have to change is the front cover and the song list. We were origionally going to use the cover with happy on it however after a group meeting we decided the hand picture looked much nicer.

A special thanks from cosmo

Here is a special thanks from cosmo to the people who are close to him. This is to go on the 3rd page of our digi pack, the front cover and the back is done so now all i have left to do is a bit more album art. As you can see the album has a very galaxy inspired theme to it. We decided that this would be a good theme to have because of cosmos psychedelic and "odd" qualities being out of this world the galaxy theme is meant to represent something you may hallucinate with the use of narcotics. Due to Cosmo being more appealing to that of people who grew up in the 60's or are now influenced by the hippy style we felt like this was extremely appropriate

DIGI PACK FRONT AND BACK

These are my front and back designs for the digipack so far, i was very undecided about the back therefor i made two versions of what i wanted, one matches the front more accurately while the other is very simple with colour links to the front. While i do like the first design i feel the second is better because you are able to clearly read the names of the songs on the album much more clearly.

Digipack ideas

Here is our digipak idea that ben hasdrawn up. Ben wanted to draw it out instead of using a computer as he thought he could draw his ideas more clearly. He wanted there to be a couple of pictures of Cosmo and and also some strange psychedelic imagery. He thought this will help to establish the artist and the genre. we think that it is important for Cosmo to be on the digipak as he is a new artist which we want to promote and also get his image recognized.
