Digipak Process H

When creating the front cover of my digipak I took the original image, resized to a CD cover and removed the colour from the background of the image but keeping the colour on the main character making him the focus of the digipak.


I then added Text to the top of the Image giving it a very subtle and clean look but keeping the focus of the main character in the middle of the cover.


The second cover I carried out the same steps as the first which was removing the colour from the background and keeping colour on the main character so he is still the main focus. 


Aagin the same concept was done with the inside pannel which was to make the sky the focus giving the idea of the sky is hevan.


Finally with the back cover i removed all colour and changed the colour of the tracks to red again making them the main foucus but also the coulour red is a main theme aswell as it is the colour of the main characters shirt.

My Chemical Romace Digipak - Reserch H








My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade Is Dead!

This digipak is a live album, which therefore relates to the images used, as they contain fans and the crowd My Chemical Romance performed in front of. The front cover is made u of three images all put together. The first picture is of a closed gate, which connotes the end of. The second picture is of some flowers standing upright on some grass where lanterns have been lit, suggests a funeral and an end to something. I like how they've added the title into this image, which makes the Digipak look really professional, and eye catching. Again the Parental Advisory Explicit Content sign is seen in the corner to show that the songs on the album are not suitable for everyone.
All the tracks on the album are in the format of a newspaper. In the type of newspaper they have there are usually some form of death notes or missing people this also relates to the theme of the funeral and this particular Digipak tends to stand out from other ones.

Inside the Digipak is a picture of a crowd which is full of My Chemical Romance fans I like the use of the crowd especially since this particular Digipak is a live album with all live songs so the picture of the crowd really fits in well.

Paramore Digipak - Research H







Paramore – Riot

Riot! Is the second studio album by American rock band Paramore, succeeding their debut album, All We Know Is Falling, and was released in the United States on June 12, 2007 and in the United Kingdom on June 25, 2007. The front cover is and image of the band stood in black and white with only the word RIOT! In colour this shows that the band are trying to make the album more important than themselves and trying not to commercialise themselves it could also show that the word riot plays a big part of the album meaning the album could be chaotic and destructive. The black and white with the word riot could show that things such as riots take away most life from life meaning the lack of colour could mean the lack of life. The back of the album is very minimalistic carrying on with the theme of lack of life and colour.  The theme of lack of life could also relate to the songs on the album as they could have a lot of meaning and back stories about big tragic events that have been happening in the world.

All Time Low Digipak - Research H



All Time Low – So Wrong Its Right

This Digipak So Wrong, It's Right is the second full-length studio album by American pop punk band All Time Low, released through Hopeless Records on September 25, 2007. The front cover is an image of a couple together with two other people which could connote that the main two people are cheating on the other two, this relates to the title of the album So Wrong, It’s Right as cheating as seen as wrong but the people cheating see it as right. The Back image is of the couple with a big building in the background, this shows that this particular album is one of All Time Low’s more urban albums, Also the birds on the cover could signalize paradise meaning that the album its self is paradise to listen to. The album is extremely colourful in comparison to other albums, this could show that the album is very up-beat and lively.
