  Large band nameto grab viewers attention Black name against white so stands out Multiple imagery and vintage colours to show ‘old film camera’ effect Vintage colours, film grain and light bleed like film cameras. Indie clothes and hair cuts, both expanding on the genre of music. Both in ‘indie’ locations- outside, by brick walls/alley way and another locations that look grungy or worn down. Use of a camera flash to bring out colours and exposure. Unknown (at the time) Indie rock band so the covers include all the members for fans to recognize.

  Most Indie Rockbands don’t show a picture of the band on the back but we wanted to promote the band as much as we could. On the kooks’ album they use a very similar picture on the front to the back, we didn’t want it to look as though we only had 3-4 pictures to choose from so we thought we would get some photos when we were off guard. Bar-codes and copy write notice Song titles We kept the same colours and theme with the vintage looking photographs, instead of switching to black and white. We kept the writing small and out of the middle, like The Kooks’, so its not in your face and you can see the picture behind.

  Originally, we hada second picture of peter (the drummer) to the right of the disk, so it mirrored the guitarist. In our first draft, I tried to add the lyrics to ‘my number’ – the song we chose to do our music video on. The band Fall out Boy, include 4 panels all around their digipak with lyrics of their songs around. This was all good but it didn't fit our digipak and the feel wasn’t right. Alt J add the lyrics too but again it didn’t look right. We replaced the square in the bottom left (that originally had lyrics) with a montage of photos from the photoshoot. The kooks did this, when they took a handful of photos and put them together.

  really, we just wantedto put a picture of the band on the CD but we didn't know how to put the name of the band across. we thought about using something like Weezer’s but it didn't fit the rest of the digipak or website. We then found a new font on ‘Da Font’ and put that behind the band members. as well as a load of other graffiti shapes to make it all blend in and just make the photo a bit more ‘edgy’.
