UPDATE ON DIGIPAK PRODUCTION

I am not doing a photo-shoot as I have decided to do a graphic design type digipak which only requires the use of skills on Adobe Photoshop.
I will begin production for the digipak on Tuesday 3rd November.

Digipak Planning



 
The above CD designs are similar to what I want to achieve for my Digipak. I chose to do a graphic design type digipak as this is common for EDM artists. I chose to make patterns that resemble a DJ/Club setting. The name of the artist and self titled album will be in the middle of the CD cover as similar to the Keane album. I want to use the idea of lines and circles in my album. Inside the digipak will also be the artists logo.

Digipak & Poster Plan




My digipak is brightly coloured which reflects the genre of EDM. It has the main star of the music video, the DJ robot Lego man on the front cover of the digipak. The front cover is a club scene as the EDM genre is based around clubbing and DJ''s. I am having a CD for the album but also a DVD which will be a short documentary type video on Exodus and will show clips from some of his early gigs. There will also be a book which will have thanks from Exodus to people who helped create the album and the lyrics to the tracks on the CD. I have chosen the house style to be my artists logo as this is something which is featured heavily with the EDM genre as logo is seen to be more important than the artists image. The logo is of the o in exodus's name and it is umlauted to show style and reflect his German background. It is the same colours as featured on the rest of the digipak. The track listing is written in the house colour style and has songs all relating to the EDM genre.
