Digipak

What is a Digipak?

The digipak is a type of packaging for CDs or DVDs, typically made from cardboard with an internal plastic holder for one or more discs. Here are some examples from popular artists:

Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP2

Kendrick Lamar - MAAD City

J.Cole - Forest Hills Drive

Kendrick Lamar - To pimp a butterfly

Designing my digipak:

When designing my digipak I used a couple photo's from the morning of the filming of our final video. I put both into photoshop CS4. Cut the head out of the original photo and placed it over the other image. I then lowered the opacity of the layer with the figure in it to 50% resulting in a very interesting image. 

Here is my digipak, with all the editing complete on photoshop CS4. 

Music Video - Rough Cut

Test shots - Smoke Grenades (Props)

Photos of Shoot

Here are some photos I had captured while we were shooting our music video on my mobile phone. They show some of the equipment we used such as a Canon 6DD with a tripod. The photos also show us planning it out, setting everything up, and working off our storyboard/shooting schedule.  

Location - photos

As you can see, the location we picked was perfect for the music video setting. This location gave us thick, green wood, great lighting and generally an appropriate setting.
