PHOTOS FOR OUR DIGIPAK

To create a star image for our digipak we used the college photography studio as it has a black backdrop and we could also use the studio lighting. We tried to convey the same atmosphere and mood that we had running through our music video. We also used lots of key lighting so that we could create a ‘glamorous’ and more ‘flawless’ appearance and star image. This would create a link between the music video and the digipak and so there would be a sense of continuity. We also considered having the images in either colour or black and white. We edited the photographs using ‘Photoshop’ so that they were in colour and in black and white so that we could compare them to see which we preferred and if we wanted to edit them further so that we could achieve the effect and style that we wanted.

I also created Polariods so that we could create a star image and also create a link to our music video and album title.  As we wanted to use different images for the digipak and the poster it would be better to also have an image of the cover of the digipak to help promote the band and album
