Designs for the Digipak

At the moment we are editing our video, so it makes sense that we should start planning our ancillary task of creating a digipak. We are going to follow the idea of taking a picture of a motorway at night during rush hour with the shutter speed vastly reduced so the headlights create long lines. This is an effect we think will look very good as an album cover plus it is quick and easy for us to do.

Editing

We have decided after watching the footage we got from our fifth day of filming that we enough enough to edit and have started to do so. We have edited in all of our lessons and in our free periods. During lessons we only leave two people in charge of editing with the rest of the group checking on their progress and offering their ideas. Working in a group of four allows us to do this with the main advantage being that we can work on our ancillary tasks at the same time. So far we have edited about half of our video without transitions and effects and i am confident if we continue with this work rate we can have a rough edit for this weekend. Currently group member Jacob has taken it upon himself to edit the most which is great as the video has consistency throughout. However i feel that some of the workload isn't being passed around evenly due to group member Alex being ill for a few days during editing although i feel he will make up for this in the final weeks of our coursework.

This is a website i found while researching our digipak. It gives us measurements we could use when creating our digipak. The link to this website is below:

Digipak Research

This is one of the digipak's that group member Tom has got and he has kindly brought it in so that we could all gather what a digipak was and look to create our own one with enough time to spare.
