A2 Digipak: Final Panels

Below are my final panels.

Front cover:
This partially complies with the conventions of existing products. I had originally planned to include both the artist and album name on the front cover. However, during the process I thought the piece was more aesthetically pleasing without it. I am surprised with the results as this was my first attempt.. I have succeeded in making my CD cover bright, colourful and attractive. However, If was to do it again, I would maybe use more masculine colours. I used a combination of pink and blue to address both genders but the pink is a little over powering. Overall, I think that the composition works.

Inside Left and Center:
I think the contrast of the black and white photo with the colourful collage background works well. The photographs add a more personal feel to the digipak whilst also maintaining professionalism. We were careful with the photos we took, this means that every "pose" is intentional to give this image. I also feel that I have successfully kept the theme strong throughout.



Inside Right:
This panel is for the CD, I ave kept it simple ads it will be blocked by a CD. However, I have still maintained the theme so that when the CD is removed, the digipak still looks nice.

Extra Panel:
Similar to existing products, I used this extra panel for special thanks. This is where I put Chris, our main actor, Freddie and myself. Although I haven't put the record label but I think that this works well as an extra panel. It is also a typical convention.

Back Cover:
My back cover is supposed to represent a track list. Our teacher suggested that we should put the contents of the actual CD so it is for that reason, that I have done it. This includes the artist name, the song title, what is on the disc and my candidate number.

The same fonts, styles, colours, tools and free images have been used throughout.
