Digipak; Font (front)



When browsing and deciding on a suitable font for the title of the band, i had to take into consideration that this would be one of the most important elements within the front cover of my digipak, as it is the name of the band itself. To decide on a font I used the website Dafont to browse all of their fonts available. The reason for using this website is due to the fact that this website contains a vast variety of multiple different types of fonts, therefore freely enabling me to pick and choose between all of these. The four above are the remaining fonts I narrowed it down to, in terms of the title.


Immediately upon looking at this font when browsing for handwriting styles on Dafont, I knew that this was perfect for my album cover, in the sense that it was elegant, yet looked perfectly like a signature someone might use. Therefore giving the exact effect i required within the front of my digipak.

Magazine advert planning; Image and background

Image
As shown within my digipak planning, I took various images of the model, in different positions. This is the chosen image for my magazine advert. The reason for choosing this particular image is due to the fact that, it matches the simplicity of the digipak image, as well as using the same model, and silhouette idea (to reflect the album title). The fact that she is holding the flowers further promotes the naturalistic element that ties together the digipak and the magazine cover. This is the colour swatch that will be used as the only colour element within the magazine advert, used as the background for the top half of the advert. The fact that I have chosen to use this colour is due to the fact that it is subtle and not too overbearing, linked to the fact that this colour has been used consistently throughout the entirety of my digipak. To contrast this, the use of the colour black will also be featured, yet within the bottom half of the magazine advert. In turn t...

Magazine advert; Spotify logo

Image
I figured that the magazine advert looked a little bare in the bottom right hand corner, therefore I needed something to add in here, to liven the magazine up. It was suggested to me by one of my peers that I add the Spotify logo and put, 'now available on' just before the logo. However instead of having it in black and white like the other social media logos, I thought it would add more of a pop of colour to the advert if the logo was the signature green, yet only subtly as the logo is smaller in scale compared to that of the rest of the information presented. I took the image below from google, of the Spotify logo to use within the magazine advert. Then later added the 'also available on' using the same 'Arial' font from photoshop that was used for the information about the tracks. Therefore meaning I ended up with the magazine advert you can see below.

Therefore, after creating a film opening last year this developed my skills with regards to photoshop and after effects. This year I ...
