Visual Theme Ideas for the Digipack

We want our digipack to entice features from our music video and include an image/s which are current and noticeable throughout the video. Many of the themes in which we want to use is the main convention of the 80's style which is present in the video along with the funky, bright and bold colors as well as writing. This will be the main feature of our digipack.

Some of the ideas which we have for the front of our digipack is to include an image from one of the shots in the video of the characters. This will keep the idea current and will enable our audience the oppurtunity to relate to the theme. One of the shots that we are thinking of putting on the front of our digipack is the image of all four characters at the beginning of the video. We would change the colour of the image and make it more bright, bold and enticing to the audience. The background arguably doesn't represent our theme in the best way, so therefore we would hopefully change this in photoshop to make the image more relateable with the music video.

Another image we are thinking of incorparating is the image of one character winking to the camera, holding a retro phone. This is a fun playful image and keeps with the main idea of a phone which features in both the song lyrics and the music video. We would change the color and make it more bold and bright, drawing our audience in.

Another theme that we could place on the front of our digipack is the character in a cow suit. This image could be called our motif as it features throughout the video and is something that is recognised by the veiwer. It's also a jokey image and is very playful. To make the image more appealing, we would change the colours and maybe the background.

On the front of our digipack, we will include the classic conventions of a digipack, the name of the artist, the name of the album and reveiws from MTV and other music organisations. We want the font to be bold, eyecatching and really funky in order to capture the audience's attention. We were thinking of having the name of the album slightly smaller then the name of the artist for the reason of 'need to sell the artist'. We think that having each letter a different color would be interesting. The reveiws from a range of music organisations will feature at the bottom of our front cover in noticably smaller font then the name of the artist and ablum. We are debating as to whether to have the font style funky and bold or to have it plain and simple. We will also include star ratings from music organisations, these will be big above the reviews. The star ratings will be good to have as they attract attention from the audience as to how good the album is.

On the back of digipack we will include our tracklisting for our album aswell as the record label company. The font for our tracklisting will be the same as our album name and artist name font to keep in with the theme.
