After extensive research into minimalist digipak and album cover designs, I have decided to adopt a similar design for my digipak using one image on the front cover as the main focus then linking the other panels to this using various different methods. The image on the front cover of the digipak is an photograph I took whilst at Leeds Festival whilst a flare was illuminating part of the crowd I was in. I believe this photograph is effective for use on an album cover as it quite striking, original and will catch the target audiences eye amongst other albums. Also, the majority of the photo is blank which allows room for the band and album name to be placed onto the photograph, transforming it into an simplistic album cover (after editing). I have then tried to design the other 3 panels of the digipak to flow on from this to give a sense of continuity throughout. On the inside left panel I incorporated a zoomed in (and edited) image of the red smoke from the flare therefore creating a sense of continuity by adhering to the colour scheme. The back cover/track list is very conventional containing all the necessary information such as legal wording, barcode and record label logo. The layout of the back panel is extremely simple, maintaining a minimalist look, whilst also adhering to the colour scheme once again.
