Digipak Draft and Feedback (Progression)
Below are my digipak designs outlined as drafts. I have individual feedbacks based on them which I hope to alter in order for me to gain maximum marks in my ancillary task. The designs below are my first draft and I am fairly happy with the outcome but i know that there is always room for improvements.
In terms of feedback, the audience really like the faded effect of the images used at the front side of the digipak as it was easy to focus on the members. However, some of the sides were too simplistic for example side 5 was far too simplistic and it seems like "a waste of slide" because it only shows an image of a group I could perhaps add a bio of each band member accompanied with that slide to make it more interesting for the audience.
Feedback suggested that I could maybe add more colours to the first slide and the last slide because as they are black and white they do not compliment each other as it does not fit in with the colour scheme. I responded with "Do you think I should add 2-3 more colour", to which he responded with "yeah I think it would look cool", so this piece of feedback suggests that my choice of colours are really basic and they do not compliment with each other; I can eradicate this issue by adding more range of colours but not overcomplicating it.
Furthermore, he said that "the thank you message is cool but don't give it a whole page maybe change it so it is quite small and it is part of a page. My teacher (teacher feedback) verbally told me that the 'Thank You' message makes the band seem cheap and minuscule so she told me to change it so that I doesn't display this message but something else instead. I could possibly change it so that the message shows something else perhaps a bio about how the band established or maybe a lyrics page.
Additional feedback suggested that 'Bangladesh Bangers' on the first side and the fifth side of the digipak can be hard to see. For example on the first side the 'Bangladesh Bangers' text is white but so is the background which makes it hard to see even if there is a black banner going across the text; again on the fifth slide it is also hard to see because the logo hasn't been embossed it just looks plain and simple. I could possibly rectify this by embossing the text or maybe adding a black outline which would mean that the text is easier to read.
One final comment made towards my digipak design was that the 2 disc sides (side 2 and 3) were far too identical and it "seems like the two disc sides were copied and pasted, so maybe try changing them", this particular feedback is interesting because he says that two of the sides (side 2 and 3) are too similar to each other meaning that they clash and may lose interest in the audience. I could potentially change the colour scheme and add a range of colours to make the sides different.
Overall, the feedback has given me a great idea as to what people think of my digipak design; overall the design is effective however it lacks some basic use of colours and it doesn't look as aesthetically pleasing as it could be. I hope to make the design more interesting and colourful which will hopefully make the audience seem more interested.
