Having now completed my existing digipak research, I began to think of the image and sense of theme I wanted for my own. With this in mind I took a screen shot from our final footage of this split screen of the four of us.
I then edited it using PicMonkey online software in order to get a feel for the image and see whether it would work for a digipak, changing the saturation and shadowing in order to give us more of a presence in the image. I particularly like this image because of the use of sunlight in the background, which reflects our music video as well as that the four of us being in the image in a subtle way, which is a convention of indie rock digipaks that I found during previous research.
I aslo feel that this image is reflective of our indie rock genre as it presents a simplicity and ambiguity, often themes that are presented in an indie band.
Currently this is the beginnings of the creation of my digipak, I am yet to title the album and plan to document each stage. This image is an option that I shall continue to develop and perhaps may be included in my digipak, however I am yet to decide whether this image shall take the front cover or perhaps the inside/back. I am however, happy with the look and feel of this chosen image.
