STAR IMAGE

MAIN IMAGE

The main image of the digipak tends to either have the bands interests or styles on them, this gives the audience a inside view of what they’re going to be listening to.

Some artwork has the artist themselves on the front but this isn’t a necessary requirement.

The font found on them tends to show who the band are. The artist font tends to be in a different format to the title of the album.

The artwork on an album tends to add anticipation to what the audience is going to be listening to and usually has a hidden meaning behind it.

EXAMPLES OF ALBUM ARTWORK ARE:

In this artwork we can see they’re spraying champagne. The text used for the artist name is bold and across the top compared to the title which is along the bottom and in smaller writing. The band are across the middle of the album which shows who they’re.

The artwork used here has the band name doing down the middle and then the album name is in smaller text at the bottom. They’re both in the same font though. There is no eye catching artwork other then the & directly in the centre. The artwork around the outside of it is similar to a basic carpet.

The artwork used on this album is the lead singer in the middle of the album in a body suit, this album would stand out on the shelf because its different to all the others. The album name and the title are both in the same font apart from the title of the album is smaller then the artist name.

This artwork features the sing of the band sitting on the edge of a building. His at the edge of the artwork. The font of the album title is in the middle along the bottom in a vibrant colour compared to the rest of the scenery. The artist name isn’t featured on the front. There is a monotone setting.

The album artwork used here features a female standing holding bodily insides. The album title and artist title is in the same font and colour covering the mass of the album cover.

The artwork is a colourful surrounding of roots, these are in the shades of purple and blue. The figure in the centre-bottom is in a black shading. The title and artist name are in two separate fonts. The artist name is in capitals in the centre top and the album name is in smaller writing under the artist. The artwork is animated.

The album artwork for this work features a named female with an animated hand work and animated background. The album title is in small spaced out writing underneath the artist title which is in the logo design of the band.

The album artwork used here has the band members all in the centre of the album covered in flames linking back to the album name. The artist title is in capitals along the top in capitalised letters and the album name is underneath this in a different font and colour. The background is relation to the album title as the artwork is seen as the world being set on fire.

MY IDEA

The idea for my front cover is going to be on a hill with trees surrounding it, I shall then get the lyric board saying “Show Me The Way” attached to the tree and then various different sizes, shapes and colours of arrows around the outside of it. I will then edit in the artist title along the bottom of it. This can show how I develop my skill of reality and editing.
