Second draft of my back panel

Here is my second draft of my back panel after looking at another digipak I have made some changes such as the DVD Video logo and the copyright information at the bottom.

first draft of my 'Thank You' panel

As I have three panels on the inside of my digipak I needed a front panal, back panel and a middle panel which I have decided to make a panel dedicated to  the fans from  Ellie as a thank you for their support.

Here is my first draft:

I have kept it quite simple as the main focus of the panel is the message to the fans but I have also tried to link it into the rest of the digipak in terms of colour and themes.

First draft of my back panel

Here is my first draft, it includes the track listings, dvd contents, barcode and record label logo but I will look at a real digipak for further information on the codes and coventions of a pop digipak

Third draft of the inside of my Digipak

After finding out my original idea was too blurry to use I started to recreate it using Photoshop here is my editing process, 

This is a bit rough and I needed to tidy it up so I had to add all of the images and it resulted in looking like this, which I quite like as the colours look much brighter and it links with the front panal with the colours used.

2nd draft of my Digipak

This draft I tired to make it like a collage, I made the middle image on photoshop and then cut out pictures from my various photoshoots and stuck them on after making them look like a collage.

I then scanned the picture in, unfortunately it was really blurry when I did this so I will have to recreate this image digitally using Photoshop.

First draft of inside my Digipak

 

 This is the first draft of inside m Digipak, the effect and greyscale images was an accident but I thought it looked unusual. However it became too difficult to expand on this idea and it didn't link with the ideas seen on my front panel, so I have since changed and developed my ideas but here is my initial progress.

any feedback will be very helpful in the development of my cover!

Feedback on my second draft!

Some feedback from my teacher on my second draft:

- the backwards running doesn't work
- some of the lip syncing is not quite correct

something to consider:

-spin, towards the end as it needs a climax
- have footage of a boy watching

Second draft of my music video!

Kristi NEW from Caroline Birks on Vimeo.

Here is the second draft of my music video, I have one more bit of footage to do then that'll be the end of filming, then I'll have the final bit of editing to do and adding some effects. 

Feedback from my first draft of my music video!

Here, is some feedback I got after then first viewing of my music video:

- Cut the performance shots before she smiles

- A bit repetitive 

- Cut a bit from the beginning of the music as its a bit repetitive 

- To get more variety of shots film the whole performance of at least three times

- The song is about a relationship with a guy, will he be featured? 

First Draft of my music video

Here's a first draft of my music video, its a really rough cut I need to add more and I have done more shooting since creating this draft but here is my initial ideas! I also need to cut the music as I think the beginning drags a bit!

My Digipak Layout

 I have chosen my layout for my Digipak, it will be a six panel layout and the inside will include 6 pictures of my artist which will spread across the three panels. 

It is similar to the above design but I adapted it to make it more interesting than the one photo booklet in the middle panel.

My inspiration was from Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience album:

I like the way it folds out and I also like the way which when it does fold out completely you see a series of photos of the artist and the CD's are slotted into the fold of the case, the only thing I would change for my Digipak is I would include a track listing on the back as my artist is just starting out.
