Break Down of Digipak (back)

The first step to creating our digipak for our band and music was to select and design a style forour pack. So after messing around with a few ideas we came across our design, which we all really liked and thought that it fit the music, quite well.

(This is the design of our Digipak and first step)

The second step to creating our digipak back was to then add the songs of course. However we had to choose a fitting font for the names of our music. We also had to choose a colour that was visible and looked good on our custom made background. So we chose ‘Rockwell Extra Bold’. We added a good number of songs to the back of our digipak and also made it smaller so we could fit more on the back.

(This is an example of the Rockwell Extra Bold writing on our custom made background and the second step to creating the back of our digipak)

The third and final step to create the back of our pack was to then add copy right information and add a bar code for our music video so it able to go through the checkout and scanned for shops of course. We used a logo and a statement for our song and music we also had to make sure it stood out from the rest of the music so we chose the same font but we turned it white.

(This is an example screen grab of our copy right information and bar code step three of the creation of the back of the digipak.)

Our finished product came out just how we expected it too; we liked the design, which we created and chose it to defiantly be on our digipak. The design came together with the three steps we took to create the perfect back of the digipak for ours.

Genre Characteristics

The genre of our music video is an alternative rock song. Usually in such videos there are plenty of shots involving the band playing. We aim to follow this with plenty of shots of the band playing intertwined with extreme close ups of the band playing their instruments. We aim to also include plenty of meat shots of the singer, as this is also a part of the band shots convention. Usually in songs like this a lot of the lyrics are not taken seriously and made fun of, so we have decided to take certain lyrics and play around them. We will try to make them seem funny and have a different meaning.

Relationship between lyrics and visuals

In our video the lyrics will be represented with a literal meaning, whether it be funny or serious. For example when the lyric “It’s always cloudy” we have a shot that shows a load of clouds in the sky. We aim to provide a narrative structure of two people having a fight and realising that it wasn’t right to break up. We aim to tie it together with shots that are funny and break up the serious narrative strands. This relationship will continue for the entire length of the video.

Relationship between music and visuals

For the most part or video will be made up of ordinary cuts. However at certain points the cuts will be timed with the music due to certain sections having a lot of drum beats which are easy to sync the music too. However these parts will not have any parts of the narrative, they will instead contain a lot of shots of the band. The pace of these sections is of medium pace and will last approximately a second in length. All this should create another relationship between the music and the video.

Need to sell artist

During the video we aim to have a great deal of meat shots of the band, but mostly the lead singer. This is because it is usually a convention in music videos. It is commonly associated with selling the song. This can be shown with female singers in bands, they tend to be put on adverts and album covers in front of everyone else to appeal to a more male audience along with those that like the band. However this is rarely seen, as female singers are rare in rock bands. It also helps people to make the link between the singer and the actual band themselves.

Voyeurism

We have planned a few shots to show voyeurism such as people stood in private, having an argument. These things are not usually seen by people other than those involved, this then gives an idea of voyeurism as we are seeing a part of there lives not many others would. We did this to add to the narrative and give the audience an idea that they are looking into people’s personal lives. Our music video is aimed at teenagers so we will try and add voyeuristic things suitable for this age range.

Intertextuality

For this we are keeping our band as all male so as to be like Fall Out Boy, due to them being all males. We may or may not use similar dress style to Fall Out Boy, depending on if we manage to find a few pairs of similar clothing.

Digipak Cover

This is the second version of our first attempt to create a cover for our digipak. The cover has come a long way since the first attempt. However it is still not fully complete because we are missing the title and a band member.
