Front and Back Cover Version 2

For the second version I edited the front cover, making sure that the image doesn't look stretched and removing the the sunshine effect in the sky, it does look better than the previous version but I think that it now has a lack of colour and I may add some watercolours to the front image.

Front and Back Cover Version 1

This is my first attempt at creating a front and back cover for my digipak, i'm very pleased with the back cover that features a watercolour drawing of falling leaves, the text works well too because it matches the style of the album advert that I created earlier. The front cover is the part i'm really not pleased with because it looks stretched which is an effect that really makes it look unprofessional, i also really don't like the pattern in the sky, it worked on the advert but doesn't seem to work as well on this cover, I may come up with a new layout or perhaps an entirely new image.

Inside cover and Disc Version 1

To start on my digipak I decided to create some new drawings that matched the footage in our video, so I decided to create the image of the tree that appeared in the video then I added watercolours and pen, I decided to draw the stick-figure that appears on everything so far, he's become something of a symbol for the album. Then I started researching the lyrics from other tracks on the 'Sierra Planes' album and came across the quote 'I found Myself' which fit with the image of the tree very well. For the CD I decided to create a pattern that matched the sun rays from my album advert unfortunately I really don't like the pattern it appears too boring, it needs an image that fits in with the style of the artwork.

After adding the sun rays on computer it seems to have made the advert quite interesting, It also fits in with the story of the music video where the main character wishes to escape, the sun shining through the trees shows where he wishes to escape to. I'm also very pleased with the text that fits in with the image perfectly, the black pen drawn style looks like it's been written in the same rough, cross-hatched style of the image.

This advert would appear as a small image in the back of a magazine, because of the unknown artist it would start off small but in the future if the artist gains popularity the advert may feature on a quarter of a page or even a full page.

George Barnett Album Promotion - Version 1

This is the first version of my album advert, i'm very pleased with the outcome of it but I believe that there is something missing from it, it seems to have a lack of colour, I'm thinking perhaps to add watercolours to the image or to the text, I also have another idea to add sun rays shining through the trees on the computer, this may work well but it may make the advert look a little unprofessional.

Fonts - Hand Drawn

The font I have in mind for my digipak and advert will look something like this, the rough and animated style of the writing fits the animated scenes in our video very well, I will definitely use a similar design to this, it maybe plain or I might use watercolours like I have here.

Final cut of music video

This is the final cut of our video, we have made the changes suggested by the class from the audience feedback, the beginning of the video now features scenes of the main character thinking in his home, looking at the art that surrounds him, these scenes do make the beginning seem much stronger and mean more, they make the personality of the character seem much more clearer.
