These rough sketches show our main ideas. They are inspired by Mount Kimbies actual album art, and so we followed similar conventions by using geometric shapes and vibrant colours in the designs.
This was a more detailed mock up of a main idea. The principles are in place, using strong colours
and shapes. the designs for all three pages are consistent giving the digipak an overall look.
It emulates the geometric designs of Mount Kimbies past, but ours is more three dimensional and adds a more complex interaction of the shapes and colours. The shapes will be shaded to give them an appearance of physical existence, but there will be varying light sources and angles to create a surreal, unreal appearance that reflects the style of the music. The back cover mimics the front, but is more subdued in order to give room for the text.
On the inside will be an image of the artist, which connects it to the website and video as well as humanises the band. We will not use an image though, as to still remain somewhat removed from the music, and as this was not something favoured in our survey. Instead we chose to use a line image, which will not be hugely realistic; this creates enigma and interest in the band.
Personally I think this is too similar to Mount Kimbies albums and doesn't properly show our creative abilities. It also isn't as reflective as I'd like of the music video, and we want to make it more consistent with that.
