Digipak Draft

Here is a draft of the first digipak. I like it but I want to make the scribbling out more artistic and not as clumsy. This was created on an iPhone app. It is very simple and different. This works with our music video because it challenges a lot of conventions for pop music videos. Our design will too.




I don't like the font either but the photo and effects work well. The dusty effect makes the album look old and worn which is a nice effect to go with our product. The idea of scratching Ted's face out is to add a bit of mystery to the cover and then the inside will be his full face.



I now need to add the bar code and track list. This is the track list we decided on a long time ago.

-Black Trust
-Second is the first to lose
-Sandalwood and fear
-She broke my cactus
-What happened to Joseph
-One less finger
-It's too late
-How you like me now

Barcodes

Jamie created a barcode which we can link to the website. This is really good because it means we can raise awareness for our artist and therefore create free advertising.



He use this website Barcode Website and he also created a QR code. This can link to anything through people who have the app.



These links are used widely in todays culture. A smartphone should use this to take the viewer straight to the website.
