Digipak Notes before designing

Before I actually designed my Digipak, I made notes based on my previous digipak cover and design research to state what type of shots I wanted for my covers, along with any types of lighting or colours on the design.

Note: My digipak will be in a 6 panel design format as a reference to my previous research, to allocate a CD in the inside centre, along with imagery and information at either side of this on the accompanying panels, along with a front and back cover. I decided to use this format, as I thought that more information could be fitted into the design, along with any extras such as a lyrics book or added pictures/text.


Front cover
-MCU of Lisa looking down away from the camera
-Gold/Black/White text for Artist's name
-Hand-rendered album title
-Out of focus background (Plain, grey/erroded)
-Large artists name text, smaller album title text


Back centre
(Similar to backpage)
-Warped background/video image -'Meeting Place' (Long/Wide Shot)


Back cover
-scenery from the video featuring Lisa (out of focus with warm colour) -Walking in instrumental (MCU)
-Track listing (small text except for larger album title repeated)
-Barcode
-Repeated artist/album title
-Production rights/icons


Inside Left
-LS of Lisa sat looking down (Grey/dark background-Loneliness-upperlight overhead)
-Info at side of image (optional)


Inside Middle
-CU of lights out of focus (romantic) / LS of sea (simplistic for CD over top)


Inside Right
-MCU of Half of Lisa's face-direct shot taken from video in studio

CD Design-
-Black/grey background
White text-combination of type and rendered-personalised for artist/album title
-Rights in smaller white text at bottom of CD
