Final Draft of DigiPak


After much consideration on how I would closen the connections between my final digipak and music poster, I came up with sticking to the theme of peace and war. In doing so, I took a picture of a bullet and decided to use that as part of our digipak. Next I went into photo shop and duplicated the bullet a number of times, I then created one half of the peace sign using the bullets. I took another picture of the bullet, but facing the other way and duplicated it a number of times and created a circle (the other half of the peace sign), now the bullets look like they're going to collide. The first half by going through the second half, suggesting that at a certain point in time the bullets will come together and create the peace sign.


I also drew the peace sign (see below) and scanned it into the computer, then I split it up in half and put it on seperate pages, this allows for the peace sign (which was coloured in the same colour as an axolotl) to be full when the digipak is put together, it also suggests that we do not have world peace, as of yet, and that certain places need to be fixed to get world peace. These pictures replaced the images on my first draft of the sun and the moon.

As for the text, I've kept it the same, however I have added production and copyright information on the back cover, which is found in my research on various digipaks. As for other text, I have added some memorable lyrics: "Can't the whole world love one another. Throw down your weapons fix all the hunger". This is to show what this album means to the artist and gives us something to think about.

As for the final page, I have added the peace sign so that it fits exactly where the CD would fit, this is what "The Axolotls" want, they want Peace, not war, and so this suggests that there should be peace in this world sometime in the future.
