Lesson Overview 13/12/10 - By Meryl Cariaga

In today's lesson each responsibility of the group members were divided. Overall, we had finalised the design of the digi pak and started to create the actual digi pak, using Photoshop. During the creation of the digi pak, we concluded on what images to use within the inside and outside panels. The centre panel inside, will be the tray, where the CD will be contained, with only a black background, framing the CD, is the abstract art consisting of black and blue streaks. The extra panel, which folds inside are the images of the equipment which would normally be used in the creation of the music, for example, a microphone, turntables, a guitar. Of course all images are taken at an angle to give a professional hint, then using photo shop, the images are given a black and blue hint to add to the consistency of the theme being used. On the front cover, is an image of the bear sitting alone in front of a brick wall. We then used photo shop to edit the colours, in this case, black on the outside framing the photo, and a hint of dark blue on the picture. As you can see, the theme we hae decided to use within the digi pak, portrays the particular genre, and sets the mood.

To follow, the conventions of a digi pak, we included the name of the artist, in this case the logo of UNKLE. We used this logo, for artist identity. This means that the same logo is used on other albums published by the artist, which is used to establish the artist as a recogniseable band and creating familiarity with its audience.This means that fans who already own an album of UNKLEs’ will automatically be drawn as the logo has become recogniseable.
