digipak practise - 1





Another part of my A2 media coursework is to produce a digipak for my chosen artist. i have to create a digipak based on the music video which i will be creating. I will be using InDesign to produce a front cover, back, inside and CD.




This is my first practise creating a digipak, I have chosen a well known band - blink 182. I wanted to create a digipak with some similar features of their albums, such as the 3 colour theme - red, green and yellow.




I like the way the numbers have a different coloured gradient placed over the top of them. By spreading out the numbers i thought the colour sections look good. I feel as If it might even be better if i only had 182 on my front cover, as they are such a well known band, people would still recognise their album.




I love the coloured stencils of random objects, a similar method they used within their actual album. Placing a parental advisory logo made this digipak seem more realistic along with the bar code.











 I am happy with the final outcome of my first digipak knowing what to do, how to do it and what can be achieved. I think that the inside cover may need something more, either some words or more pictures to create a more professional look. I think that albums need to have a theme, weather that be fonts or images, and I think that this digipak does not carry a powerful theme throughout, this is something I can work on within my next digipak.
