My draft 3 of my digipak is pictured below. From the feedback I received from my draft 2, I made many changes which have hugely impacted the digipak in a positive way, for example, changing the typeface, adjusting the brightness and contrast of my boxes, using the opacity tool to create affect and ensuring my illustrative digipak represents my genre well. I have followed the conventions of an Indie Rock album cover using a design which doesn’t feature the star on the front cover and using emblematic imagery to represent the genre, however, there were parts of my magazine which I challenged, that don’t necessarily relate back to an Indie Rock album.
As a way of receiving feedback for my digipak draft 3, a tally was created which consisted of naming a list of genres; the idea behind it was that other media students could provide feedback by ticking the most appropriate genre for my digipak. This is the results of the tally:
As a result of receiving this feedback, it has allowed me to understand whether I succeeded in representing my genre and star accordingly. From the results, it showed that Indie Rock was the second most voted genre; the genre I was trying to represent throughout my digipak. I feel as though there are parts of my digipak that need improving in order for audiences to gain an understanding of my genre. I think I did well to represent my genre and star well, however, improvements are required to provide the powerful genre of Indie Rock.
