Digipak photos

Figure 1
Some characters below will have a pixel effect where some of their face will be missing and there will be pixels coming off of them (figure 1).
Some other characters will have a water effect where the character appears to have one side of their body turning to water to symbolise alcohol's effect on the body and the perception of your own body.
One of the covers will also have a smokey effect so the character appears to be fading away as smoke, symbolising changing identities. 









Inner panel picture 1
The first photo I am going to use for one of my panels features myself. The character wearing bracers with a plain white top to reflect the preppy character in my music video. The costume is inspired by the 1940s to illustrate the diversity of the indie genre. The covered face is done to link to the theme of fragmented identity. Part of the character's face is covered which shows that the character is trying to cover their face which is how people are identified. This shows that the character is trying to prevent others from knowing
who they are, relating to the fragmented identity theme of the panels and music video.






This cover once again features me but in a different costume. The red baseball shirt is to link to the Americanised sport character in the music video. Baseball shirts are quintessentially American; worn by baseball players. In popular media the baseball shirt is worn by jock character types, linking to our own jock character in the music video.




This photo featuring a girl is simple and innocent. Initially the costume was chosen to portray her as innocent, hence the school lanyard and minimalist makeup. However, in editing I changed my mind and decided to use just the face and decided to edit it in a way to portray her as guilty. By looking away from the camera she appears to have a secret. The pixel effect will then present her as fragmented.
This photo is one I took whilst on a plane in September that I found to fit very well with my theme. The gradient of a dark blue to light cyan is really aesthetically pleasing. The two different views of the atmosphere colliding can act as a metaphor for perspective. The atmosphere is the same however depending on the perspective it seems very different. 
This photo is going to be used as a background for my album panels and magazine.






This next photo is of some orange lilies that had a really nice mix of oranges and greens. The earthy colours made it an option for a background for the album.
