Looking at indie rock CD covers

 

 






 I found out that the cover designs were very artistic and in a way mysterious. They are very chaotic like 20 minute loop’s CD cover or very simple and minimalistic like The Black Keys – Your touch the EP. They really give us any clear direct information about the music inside which creates this wonderful mystery. This made sense as the artist or band wouldn’t be well known. Therefore, in a music store the music can only gain appeal, visually.

Digipak Plan

This is the plan that I will follow for the design for my digipak.

Starting with the poster



Here I've roughly placed the elements I want in the poster. The font is Gotic and refers to the genre of the theme of the music video.

I found that the background seemed to bland. So i decided to add some texture to the background. 

I decided to apply the red rays as a influence to draw the viewer to look at the poster. However, my peer found that the poster lacked a somber darkness. Therefor I will make further edits to refer more to this element. 

In this set of edits I de-saturated the rays to have that dark feel. I applied information for the release of the album,  website and twitter account so the viewer can get in contact and gain more information about the band. I have applied a plan for where I would imagine the image of the lead singer would be and the album cover. 

Studying existing indie music group posters

Here are some posters advertising indie bands or singers. I used these as reference for my poster. I was looking at the font style, layout, colours and design. 

 However, my teacher thought i should refer to the darker side of the music video. Therefore I looked at this poster for reference to bring in the dark element to the piece.

The New Theatrical Narrative

One of my peers said it would be original and appealing to capture the narrative in a theatrical form. I explored this idea and thought it would be a great idea as we would effectively present the narrative in a more dynamic and dark. I had the concept in my mind. However, my partner didn't understand. So I exacted this exercise so my partner could see my idea. Furthermore, it'll help to plan for the shooting on the day. The spotlights are in a sense a scene and while recording we'll explore into these scenes.
