2. I changed the initial font design of
the front cover (left) I made the font
size of ‘courtesy of neptunes’ smaller
and positioned it underneath ‘Joey’, I
also added an outer glow to the text
to make it stand out.
In addition I was
going to use the
colour red as the
consistent theme
throughout the
digipak however
after referring to the
rest of the group and
other people the
majority preferred
the second version
with white fill and a
black glow around
the outside edge of
it.
3. For the inside panel of the digipak
the positioning of the font was the
only thing that changed, the picture
stayed the same however, there was
debate on where to position the
text. In the end we decided to have
it on the bottom left of the picture
because there is more room which
means it doesn’t look as squashed
and generally we read from left to
right so it seems more natural for
the text to be in the bottom left
corner.
In addition to positioning I modified
the colour of the text to black from a
dark red (left) which initially was used
to create consistency throughout the
digipak in relation to the back panel
track list which consists of red
numbering.
Although the font styles are similar a
change was made, the initial idea was
to make it look as though the artist had
signed the digipak himself, and in the
end the font style Brush Script MT
(above) was used simply because it
was decided that it looked better and
was easier to read.
4. Initially the CD panel
consisted of red text with a
white outer glow. The
positioning stayed the same
however, the colour of the
font was changed in order to
create consistency since the
colour of the font on the
front cover of the digipak was
changed.
Finally the text was changed to ‘Jo.EY’ – after finding out that the artist wanted his performance name spelt like this.
