Digipak Ideas

Here is a few trials for ideas for promotonial work (in particular the digipaks) for our song. I done both very quickly and neither are finished fully. I really like the general idea and feel of them both so far though.

Album Covers

    Having previously looked at Newton Faulkner as another pop-folk artist I figured it would make sense to also look at his album artwork. He certainly seems to use a recurring house style of blue and white and also the same font. They vary in their themes though. I like how they're quite simple, bold and interesting. 

Also, whilst searching Google for Faulkner album artwork I came across this image:

The Magic Numbers are a slightly more rocky group in comparison to Brooke Annibale. Their appearance is quite similar and I really like their album artwork. It looks like vintage, like they've used traditional photography and that is something I'd certainly like to consider using. I like how the print is split into 4 different tones as well. I think the typography compliments the image as well. I'd quite like to see what it would look like if I edited the same image in 4 different ways and then ripped it into 4 different quarters and then re-assembled it. This would make it look a bit different and interesting but if done effectively would look really cool I think. certainly something to consider...

Digipak Example - Katy Perry

The digipak for Katy Perry's latest album 'Teenage Dream' really caught my eye.


The disks within the digipak are fun and colourful, as if the artwork for the actual digipak. I think this ephasises Katy Pery's fun and vibrant image and the images of her show her as a sexualised female icon (with the vast amount of pink, her clothes and how she is almost naked in a lot of images.

The Wombats Digipak's.

Seeing as I first studied the The Wombat's music video for Anti-D I thought I'd also look at their Digipaks. It was difficult to find actual images of their individual digipaks but I did find an image showing some of their albums and singles in almost every form.
I'm pretty sure the top row, minus the far left, are the digipaks... I like how they're consistent with their album artwork and from other images I've seen they've also been creative in the design on their disks as well.

I found this image of what one of their digipaks looks like once opened. I like they're use of 2 disks that are the same design but different colours (black on pink and pink on black) which still fit into a consistent house style. I think this digipak is practical and unique and fits the image of the band well. It expresses their fun and bold personalities as well as their music.
