Draft Digipak - Max


11 comments:

  1. The band logo beneath the CD tray looks professional, and creates an image to be associated with the band. The colour scheme is continued throughout the panels and brings it all together, especially with the all black and white inside panels. That being said, the inside left cover is maybe a bit bland. I'm also unsure as to whether the band name is appropriately placed in the top right corner on the cover, and would maybe look better in the bottom left. I think with a few tweaks this digipak could look authentic.

    1. After looking at your digipak and advert again, I was speculating as to whether you could place the band name on the white shirt (in black text) and the album title on the grey shirt (in white text) - to continue the theme from your poster of looking like the band is wearing their own merchandise.

  3. I like the band logo that you have created as it gives your band an identity, the front cover is also very good with good photography and a good title, however i think the placement of the name isn't very good as it looks like you've just put it there because you couldn't find anywhere else to put it, which i suppose is the case because of the large image, maybe this is something you will need to consider for you're final digipak.

  4. Overall this digipak is good, the photography is very good and works well, the idea of the band name partially being backwards is a good idea, however the name of the band could be in a better place (or you could just use the logo).

  5. I like the idea that you have with your digipak, using your band members on the front as well as inside the album to allow for continuity. The grey and black colour scheme works well to allow your album to look professional and the logo on the disk looks very good. However, your front cover image appears a little stretched and so reduces the professional aspect and I think you should only include one main text on the cover. The middle text, I assume this is the album name, works well but the band name doesn't look as good. I am not sure about the back image as it is unclear what it is demonstrating and think it would work better with the picture of your band members against a grey background to correspond to the other aspects of your album. I like your magazine advert as it is simple and links well to your magazine advert. Again, the logo looks professional and the font style of your band name and album works the best. However as you have challenged conventions and created a landscape advert, you need to consider that this would be positioned sideways if printed in a magazine which may distract from the attraction of the advert. The logo works well with this style as it allows the band to be recognisable even if positioned differently, you could consider making this more prominent. The only other change I would recommend is that an image is used so that you cant see the stretches in the top corner of the background. Overall, this has potential to look really professional.

  6. I think the band logo behind the CD tray works well and looks very professional and the colour scheme is good as it makes the text stand out. The picture on the front cover looks like it has been stretched slightly and might look better with some effects on it. I think there could be some more information about the band on the inside cover but this is well on the way to looking like an authentic digipak

  7. I like how you have placed the band logo on the CD as I feel this is original. I also like how you have chosen to contain the band members on the front and back covers as this keeps the consistency and also allows the audience to know who the band are. I also like the images that you have chosen to use. I think that one improvement would be the placing of the band name on the front panel as I feel it looks slightly out of place.

  8. One thing that stands out to me is the way you have edited the picture on the back cover as the picture is distorted and looks unprofessional. I also feel the name of the band looks a bit lost on the cover and you could put it on the inside left page. However, I love the fact that you have turned your letters to face the other way so they do as the title suggests, its unique and cool. I also think the way that you have placed the song titles over the image on the back cover where it goes dark is a good idea and shows you've thought about you placement. I also like the bands logo on the inside right and the colour scheme looks stylish and bright yet effective and simple. I feel you have created and authentic digipak.
