Ancillary Task - Digipak Paper Design

After researching about existing digipaks, we decided to start designing the images we wanted to include on our digipak, as well as thinking about the layout and colours in which we was going to use.

This is the front page of the digipak which includes an outline of what we want included on this particular page. From this, we can see that we plan on using an image of a graveyard as the main and only image on this page. However, this draft does not show what colours the image is going to be, whether it is going to be in colour or black and white.

The draft also shows the text that is going to be included on this particular page too. 'The Ghost Frequency' is the main header and 'Nightmare' is the title of this particular digipak. However, as I have said previously, we do not know what fonts are going to be used for this particular page or what colours are being planned to be used. Judging from the way in which this has been drafted, I am presuming that the text colour is going to be black.

This is the draft for the CD itself. It shows how an image of a person (who I am presuming is the main character throughout the music video) is going to be placed on the side in a medium close up so that you can just see their upper body.

Also, some text is going to be included on this CD. This text will be 'The Ghost Frequency', 'Nightmare' and also 'All Rights Reserved City Rockers'. This is a copyright statement that included the name of the current record holders for this particular song.

However, like the previous design, I do not know what colours and fonts are going to be used within this design.

This is the page in which will sit opposite the CD. It shows an image of a person (who again I am presuming is the main character throughout the music video) sitting in the corner which what appears to be candles around them. This image I feel could be potentially a very powerful image, however like all of the other images, we do not quite know whether the image is going to be in colour or in black and white.

All of these designs for drafts of different pages I feel look quite interesting, and could look a lot better on screen. However, i feel as a group we need to sit down and talk about the ways in which all of these are going to be made - whether the images are colour or black and white and what styles and colours the text is going to be. These are quite important matters within this design process.
