Digipak

For the final ideas for the digipak, I decided to stick with the running theme of red, as I felt that this related throughout the whole project. I decided to go with the album name 'Ethereal', as I felt that it matched the overall theme as being 'heavenly' and 'celestial'. I decided that the rose was going to be a significant item within the digipak, as it is also featured in the video. I wanted to continue with the Mona Lisa idea by combining both band members faces together, in which they are situated within the same pose as the Mona Lisa. To ensure that this idea was portrayed, I used the background from the original painting to further enhance the idea. I also didn't want my digipak to stand out too much, as I wanted the audience to focus on the detail more, and recognise the things within the panels. I felt that the overall digipak matches with the theme I was aiming for (a wedding, daydreaming bride) but matches with the edgy, indie style which I wanted. I wanted to contrast the use of black and white within my video and the colours within the digipak, as I thought that this would challenge the codes and conventions but also relates to the use of a singular colour within the indie genre.

This is my final digipak idea for my band. I decided to add different, small elements to the digipak, including a serial number, the logo and the record label logo. I also decided to include the producer and copyright info for the album and band. I think that the overall digipak matches the video which I have made, and also the theme works well.
