Digi Pak

Our Digi Pak is based upon the Metallica - Unnamed Felling limited edition CD case (Digi Pak). it consists of three panels and two sides, based upon this layout we had to create 10 photo/images to fill these panels we have used some duplicates; for example the sides of the case (the hinges) are both the same image. this is a simple design a white background with "Mixy Windowsill Limited Edition" wrote in the same font that goes throughout our project, Helvetica italic.

The inside consists of five panels two sides a middle and then the hinges. however, these panels are sections of the same one image, this gives it a nice consistent horizon going across the whole inside. this has a nice simple look that is interesting to look at but doesn't have too much going on to distract the viewer. we have also included a sample of what it might look like to have some of the lyrics printed on the inside; using the chorus of the song. we have also created a CD that goes along with the internal panels. the CD's image is the same as the image behind it; this is a very common lay out for digi paks. we have also intentionally used an image with the coffee cup, from the front cover; placing the word "Windowsill" in the middle so as it will fit onto the CD.

if i were to improve upon it i would probably take the photo slightly wider so that when the image is cropped, the cup appears in full. i would also remove the white strip around the middle hole and replace it with the rest of the image that is being obscured. this would allow people to read Windowsill better however, if the image was wider this may resolve the issue. i think that wen taking the photos for the: front, back and side i think i would use a tripod. this would allow to get identical looking images whilst only changing the objects in the frame.
