Planning the digipack


The images show my initial ideas behind the digipack, I'm planning on having a shot of the girl under water on the front and back of the cover. Whereas inside, in order to create an interesting visual around the CD I will probably use the black and white collage of images. These images are of different locations, people, scenarios which put together seems quite intact with the music video. (A lot of the shots are outside, of young people, the double exposures seem distorted and dream-like; the kind of impression we aimed for.)
I like the girl under the water in black and white because it is so simplistic, which I believe always look most effective. For example Adele's 21 album cover is a black and white close up image of her; which implies she does not need amazing graphics in order to sell herself, the audience she aims for will buy the album due to her recognisable good voice and the music she produces. Especially for Indie fans, slightly kooky, creative album designs appeal to the target audience since they are looking for something original and different to listen to.

  1. Some good comments here. Could you explore further the connotations of girl underwater - maybe when you print photoshop screens of your own design?
