Old and New

1st Draft

2nd Draft

Final Draft

As you can see when creating the front cover of my Digi-pak I went through a lot problems. The one thing I wanted my Digi-pak to come across as is 'Urban' and the mis-en scene played a key part in this. Throughout the draft the backround has always been a connotation of the London city at its grimiest which links to the rap genre in the UK. First being the garage shutter, then an image of the London city itself and then the Graffiti walls.  The problem with my 1st drafted digi-pak was I felt it looked very artificial and it almost looks as if I am smiling which is not a remarkable trade of a rapper so I took it upon myself to go out during the Christmas holidays to take some new photo's. During this time taking new picture's I found a lot of grimey estates and brilliant locations which suited my Artist. My second draft which I liked this picture but the only problem with it being my front cover was that you could not see the Artist face which you normally see on a Rap Artist front cover as I have seen numerous times so decided to use that image for the Inside panel instead. My final draft which I feel the background and hand signs show a lot of character personality.
