Digipak Disc Page

For our final page we would have to create space for the disc to go. We decided that we could use a picture that gave the owner of the digipak a first person view of the microphone. We felt this would be a nice conclusion to the digipak as it would once again keep up the theme of the performance of the band being most important amongst the digipak. When the CD is removed the image of the microphone would go hand in hand with the fact some people may want to sing along with the lyrics and this image would encourage this.

Digipak Inside Page

For our inside page we decided to focus on having a picture of our lead singer. The lead singer of most bands is considered the front man for the band, the one that receives most media attention. Once again we looked through the several photo's that Tom took and found a great picture of our lead singer giving a great pose to the crowd. We chose to use the picture for the inside picture as the image would once again give the impression to the consumer that the band are renown for their live performances which can be seen in the video, front cover and back page of the digipak.

Digipak Back Page

Our plans for the back page of the digipak was always to have a picture of the band. In every filming session Tom was always on hand with his camera taking excellent pictures and for our back page we would yet again use one of these pictures.

The immediate response we got from our original back page was that the layout and background were very good. Once again the picture had been edited to black and white with a red tint. We instantly noticed that the font that read 'Foo Fighters' had to be changed to match the font on the front apart from that we were pleased with our back page.

We changed our font to match the front cover and also decided to move the copyright agreement into a more corner based position as it looked out of place in our original effort.

Digipak Front Cover

We did originally have the idea of using a motorway at night as our front cover background, however after looking at the pictures that Tom took during filming we saw that we had good enough pictures to edit them into potential front covers. Going through the pictures we saw that we had a great side angle picture and there was enough room to put in a guitar which would really help put across what genre the music on this album is from. Above was our first design of the digipak front cover which Tom created after got the pictures we wanted.

After Tom created the digipak front cover we started to ask for some audience feedback and once again our classmates all liked the front cover but they felt the font was letting it down. This was the same problem on the magazine advert so we decided to use Foo Fighters actual font on this album as they had used this font on some of their previous album. After changing the font to what Foo Fighters have used the front cover looked more realistic and more like something you would expect to see on the shelves in HMV. However I discovered it wasn't only Foo Fighters who use the same font on more than one album, another well-known band also does this. Oasis have used the same font/emblem for no less than five albums. Below you can see that there are five albums each with the Oasis emblem on them and they can be found in the corners of the cover.
