Contact Sheet for Digipak
The other day we did the photo shoot for the digipak. We had clear plan of what we wanted out of the shoot and I feel like we were successful in this capturing this in shots we got. We got a verity of distances, angles, lighting and layouts for each side of the covers. We really tried to use these things to show the real meaning of the digipak and have some of the features that a typical digipak would have for the target genre. This means we have lots to choose from when making up the drafts of the digipak.
Some of my favourite shots from the shoot are…
Reflection
Overall upon reflection and chatting to the group we think that this is one of the most successful shoots we have done towards all of the course work. We believe this because we had such a precise and detailed plan of what we were going to do during the shoot. We knew exactly what shots we needed as we had made the moc up of the digipak so it was just a matter of taking a few shots of each cover and then changing a few things like lighting and distance to get a good verity of them. Something we have learn’t from the shoots we have done in the past is its defiantly better to get more shots than it is to get too little shots and not having an enough to work with. As on previous shoots we hadn’t had as good of a plan and not know the exact shots we wanted meaning quite a lot of it was guess work and thats where things could normally go wrong. By having all of this information and experience it was a simple task of going to the black room taking the photos we wanted and downloading them onto the computer all in very little time. Now we have these photos and picked the favourites we can start working on the first draft of the digipak which we will do in the come days.
