Today I've been thinking about my digipack and how I'd like it to look, what sort of images and colours I'd like to use, but most importantly, what I'd like on the front cover.
I came up with many ideas after carrying out some research. I learned that many of the big stars i.e. Beyoncé or Lady Gaga very often use themselves. This was obviously not a surprise as they are solo artists and they want to promote themselves on their album. After seeing this, I thought that I too was going to use the main artist on my digipack, as that seemed to be a convention of CD covers.
However, when looking into Electronic dance music, I realised that this wasn't the case. More than often, the images do not contain people. For my digipak, I would like to challenge the idea of using the artist on the front cover, and focus of using one of the main motifs in the music video: red high heels. I think this would work really well as the motif will link to my music video, but also, it will be different than the typical CD covers and thus challenge these conventions.
