Completed Digipack




 Here is my finished digi pak design, which I created using Photoshop. For the front cover, I decided to use the wide shot of our band so it gives the audience an insight of the type of band we are. It gives us a sense of individuality and presents us an organic band. The clothes we are wearing are not of any specific interest as we are classified as an indie organic rock band so we like to connect with our audience by making as look like normal everyday citizens.We decided to take a picture of us performing different poses to again accentuate the idea of being individual but as well to cohere with the Ramones album. I chose the colours as it links back to Primate but it also adds an authentic look that gives it its difference towards other indie albums, as if the past is being re-invented into the future. Also the Ramones, Stone Roses and the 2000's The Strokes, also use black & white within their covers and photo shoots. The name Walls also gives it a mysterious/conspiracy feel as we could be portraying many different things relating to the characteristics of a wall. It raises questions such as... 'What is on the other side? When will it end?'. Hence why I named one of the songs 'Jaded' as it means being bored, therefore our audience may think that it represents the simplicity of a dull wall or dead end in which we make it sound more interesting as it is such a broad idea.

We used this type of font (Floydian) because it was the closest to getting it to look like it was embedded into the wall as if we had painted it on. I positioned it behind our heads and slightly erased some of it so it would look a little more realistic because it would of been illegal to paint on the wall.
