Ancillary Task - Digipak - Final

Front of Digipak

For my front cover of my digipak I was inspired by Linkin Parks albums which looked very rock like. Furthermore I conformed to the  aspect of my genre by keeping to a grey scale which creates a very mysterious yet anarchical feeling to the digipak. I've placed my protagonist at the edge of the digipak in order to not lose the star image factor. This image also links back to the music video. The title is placed on a black background for contrast, in addition I've added the 'Parental Advisory' sticker, to allow buyers to be aware of explicit content. On the edge I've added the band name and the album name, all in the same font. Lastly I've added a sticker in the far right corner to allow the audience to know what singles are on the album such as including 'Drown' our A2 music video. There is a synergy between all three of my products, as there is a direct link between the music video and magazine cover. 

Inside: Left side  (lyric book)

The side, I've kept simple with an image of the ocean along with the title of the album furthermore I've added a 'Rock Industry' logo as that is my productive company. In addition the grey scale is effective to a great extent as it creates a very shallow feeling, however portraying the stage of adolescents. Escaping from the world, in order to find one's self. 

Inside: Right side (CD holder)
In addition the CD holder has the first band image which is great for star image, furthermore I've added a track list to help the buyer, in case the digipak is missing. It is also in greyscale to match the rest of the panels. This colour scale is also present on the magazine advert, along with the band long shot, in order to create synergy, between all three ancillary products.

 The last panel for my digipak, also contains the track list which conforms greatly to how digipaks are created, Furthermore as inspired by Linkin Park, I placed the track list further down the center and added a picture of the protagonist above it, in order to be clearly visible. Furthermore I've added a bar code, a website and a small print for illegal downloading warning that is seem on almost every digipak. The record label is also on the bottom right hand corner for easy recognition.
