Final - Digipak

Here are the final pages of my digipak that I have created for the first part of the ancillary task.


Front Cover (Page 1) - This is the front cover of the digipak, portraying the main meaning behind the music video of the girl finding hope. I have used a similar font as Imagine Dragons use on their own album for their name, as it stands out and is easily recognisable to their target audience. I used a block font for the title of the album and made it bold to stand out. I chose the colour white as it is bright and bold against the dark colour of the wall.


Inside Cover (Page 2) - This page shows the negative connotations of the 'NO PARKING' sign and how the girl is using the balloon to try and escape from the destroyed society. I changed the 'O' to red to show how hope (the balloon) is breaking down the barriers of despair and is introducing a new hope.


Inside Cover (Page 3) - This page shows the girl reaching out of the 'brick' curtains to reach for the balloon, which symbolises hope and freedom. The wall represents her being trapped and a lack of freedom, which she is trying to escape from.

 

Inside Cover (Page 4) - This page again has negative words painted onto the wall. This is to present the strong force, which is acting against the girl and trying to make her give up. I have placed a slightly translucent grey box over the image, with bold, white writing over the top. The information includes important recognition of the people who were involved in making the album.


Inside Cover (Page 5) - This page features an image of a wall with graffiti on it, which is seen in the music video that I have made for the song, 'Radioactive'. The wall gives an urban feel to the digipak, with the Banksy inspiration evident. Similarly to the previous page, a translucent grey box has been placed over the image, with bold, white writing over the top. The information includes special thanks to major contributors in the making of the album and also all of the copyright information, which is situated at the bottom.


Back Cover (Page 6) - The back cover of the digipak again features the bold, white name of the band and the album. This is instantly eye catching and recognisable to the target audience.The track list of the album is then listed below in chronological order of the songs on the CD. At the bottom of the page, Imagine Dragons's own website address is situated, allowing fans to check out their website. The image of a traffic light again has negative connotations and similarly to page 2, the balloon represents an effort in trying to get away from the destroyed society.


This is the final digipak that I have put together, complete with a customised spine for the digipak case.
