Sketching The Cover

Here is a rough sketch of what the digipak could look like, we have chosen the image we will use so it is now a case of cropping the photo, adding text and positioning the text.


Original Photo Chosen
We have not accessed colour schemes as of yet, so that needs to be decided but we all agree that the layout shown below looks effective, as it is not over-crowded and not bland either. With the original photo being rather solid or plain in colour, we may need to have the text in a bold colour with numerous effects so that the whole cover will stand out to the target audience. We may also add a gradient of colour across the whole image, as during research on Noel Gallagher's own digipaks he uses a turquoise and orange gradient across the front cover. This could turn out to be a convention of Noel's digipaks we follow or challenge, however as a group we have not confirmed this choice.

Although this is a plan for the front cover of the digipak, we may or may not follow this layout as it could look totally different on Photoshop. However if the image can cropped effectively we shall keep this layout, and use appropriate fonts for the text, which will be found using dafont.com.
