My Digipak



This is my digipak. I have used a conventional layout for it as it suits the genre of music. I am pleased with how it turned out as I think the front cover especially looks quite professional, which is what I wanted to achieve. Taking the pictures for this was my first experience of using the silhouettes I want to use in music video and I think that they have given the desired effect. As it adds mystery due to the fact that you can’t see the face of the women, only an outline, she could be anyone. The pink in the text gives the piece a more girly feel which makes the video more suitable to its target audience and this play around with colour is something I will defiantly consider when shooting my video. I also wanted my digipak and music video to have a similar look to instil a possible artist iconography and this is something I will still defiantly do. I think I should have done more preparation before doing the shoot for this video as the model didn’t have appropriate clothing on and it made her look a strange shape when created as a silhouette and it involved a lot of photo shopping, this is something I would have done differently if given the chance.

Band conversation

This is a conversation I had with the band I was going to use before they let me down.

Youth Subcultures tree

This is my youth subcultures tree. It doesnt apply to my final music video because I had done it on metal fans as that was my orignal idea. I had a band lined up but they let me down, resulting in me having to change my whole idea.

green screen practice



This is my green screen practise. It was really hard to get the balance of the background against the tshirt of person in the video as he was wearing a rather difficult colour. However, this is something I know to consider if i choose to do this in my own music video. I doubt I will use this for my whole video although I might for parts to try and create and ilusion of some sorts, this is something I will have to research in more depth before deciding whether to do it in my own music video.
