Front Cover Sketches

Here i have came up with four possible designs for my front cover. I showed my friends and asked which on they felt was best suited. i briefly explained the concept of the music videos so they could pick the one which related to this.

 

They liked the last sketch as they felt it worked well with the Alice and wonderland theme with the drink me bottle however my concern with this was that the appearance would only appeal to the younger audience rather than the older ones. So therefore we felt that the best one to go for was the third idea with  the frames as it still fun but appeals to both audience and it's not too mature either.

Thought bubble

Thinking about the advert and digipak design i want to create something fresh and different i think i'll stray away from the typical artist and text and create something with more a of narrative as not many adverts do this but also linking with the music video creating this uniform and theme throughout. I will still keep the some of the typical conventions of an advert and digipak so then it's regconisable to the audience. 

First sketch for Digipak advert

 this was my first idea for the digipak advert. i wanted to include the narrative and something fun. The design was inspired by Lady Gaga digipak advert which i researched earlier. I Incorporated the Alice in wonderland theme as i wanted to make a link between the advert and the music video. I showed it to some of my friends to get feedback and they said they liked the concept and different ideas but thought there was too much dead space and the three different sections made it quite distracting.

thought Bubble: Props & costumes

I now have most of the props and have purchased the Dresses i just need to make some of the dices which i will do in the next few weeks. We've faced no problems so far collecting all the props. The only thing is we need to get the male actors suit.

Sketches and Ideas

Today I was thinking about different ideas and came up with a few quick sketches. I wanted to create something fun and flirty, but not over the top. i had a few ideas and will later expand them coming up with a few final ideas.

 

Thought Bubble

Thinking about everything and it's two weeks to the deadline i still think i should go with the 6 panel Digi pack as i do feel i can pull it of. I've talked the the models today and we will do some shoot this week and weekend. I need to get my final ideas and concepts together so it's all organised. for the CD advert i think i will do a full page spread  rather than a double. I also have to remember to keep the 'Alice in wonderland' Theme present to pull it off in the video.
