Digipak design

 







Here is a basic drawing to what I would like my front page of the Digipak to look like. I would like an image of either Lucy, Rhyce or even them both in the centre of the cover. I will then have written just slightly through the picture 'Rhyce Galer and Lucy Skeggs' in fancy writing to show the main actors names and I am following Taylor Swifts Digipak album cover. I will then have the Album name which is undecided as of yet just under the fancy writing but in a much bolder text and bigger. The back ground for the front cover will also be basic allowing the main focus to be on the image of the actors. I am thinking colours such as greys, whites blacks and maybe some red as its a love music video.


Here's a basic drawing of my back page of the Digipak. I will again have a plain background to follow the theme of the colours. I will have a list of all the songs involved in a straight line down the centre of the page and then at the bottom will include the barcode as this is mainly on the back of most Digipaks which I have ever bought. Lastly, Our music video includes Lucy and Rhyce constantly looking for eachother, I feel that I will include a side view standing picture of Rhyce looking to the right direction and Lucy to the left.

Costume choosing and props

I decided that for our music video, the actors would just wear casual clothing as that's what's worn in love songs a lot of the time to this day. There was no outfit changes throughout our music video either because we got all our recording done in around 3 days. Below is an example of what Rhyce (our boy actor) would be wearing. Just a basic white t-shirt with some basic skinny jeans. This type of clothing is in fashion for the casual day to day look for most boys so they can then feel they relate to this video a lot more with this being the clothing worn by Rhyce. Another thing added to Rhyce's costume was his coat with a fur hood. Most times in which we recorded, the weather wasn't the nicest and also feel that this coat resembles a lot of male teenagers now a days. Our audience was young teenagers so feel that with this clothing's, we attracted them well. These clothes were bought from well known shops such as Topman and River Island.




















This outfit on the left is the type of costume I picked out for our female actor (Lucy). This again is casual, day to day stuff and very basic. These pieces of clothing are what girls feel very comfortable in. Most pop music videos these days include these type of outfits or really girly dresses. These type of clothing pieces can be bought from the likes of Primark, Topshop and River island.
