Digipak Front & Back

Even though we designed something that is completely different to what we have done here, this is what we have come up with for our final digipak. After playing around with the gradient colours, the gold and black worked best with our genre. Gold represents the wealthy artist and meets the generic conventions of a Hip Hop album digipak. The titles saying the artists name and song name are also in gold. This makes it all link together nicely. On the front cover, we thought it was necessary to put on a parental advisory sticker. This is because, the song we created a music video for has bad language in. As does other songs on the album. Having an image of the artist on the front shows the importance of him as a dominant and confident artist. We used a programme called illustrator to create the whole digipak.



This is the back cover of our final digipak. We took the image of a mixing desk and edited the image in Photoshop. Canging it into black and white and adjusting the contrast. I like the depth of filed in this image and how the image leads your eye further in to it. Black and white is a convention of Hip Hop which is why we put this effect on it. The writing on the back is again quite a different kind of writing you may expect to see on a Hip Hop digipak, however we think it works nicely, representing a more classy Hip Hop artist. To make it stand out a bit more, we but a glow effect behind the tracklist. This will make it easier for the viewer sto see. On the back, we also have a barcode. We created this bar code using the bar code generator where we chose the numbers and style to get the final one. Also, record labels that we have used that promote the artist are also on the back. The small print writing isn't as important as the gold text throughout, but is something we see on many digipaks mentioning the producers and where it was made.
