Last go at the digipack

Homing in our brand and star image, our digipack reflects the mood of our artist through the deep blacks in the backgrounds and in the costume. Our descriptor “Grungy” is communicated through her jewelry and necklaces on the cover and the love story is conveyed through the symbolism of reds in the inside pages.

Our conventions are followed through our star laying down at the keyboard which is some key iconography of our genre – indie synth pop.

We stick to 3 colours with our colour pallets; Black, white and purple which is enough colour but not too much, as the more colour we add the more complication is added in that the audience will try and read into all of our colour scheming.

In terms of typeface, we involve two different fonts which again, is not too many for the audience to read into but enough so that everything doesn’t look so samey.  Our font is conventional as indie synth artists tend to use more blocky and graphical fonts rather than serif.

Talking photo manipulation, the noise we added to all the images gives the digipack a timeless feel and is conventional as artists of our genre are appreciative of the those who laid the groundwork for the genre in the 80s.
