I have had to make minor changes throughout it, but the major changes that I had to chance was the front left cover (bottom right in the image above). I had difficulties getting the mosaic design in the same colour as everything else.
I have been interested in trying to fit this design in my digipak, and I originally had the idea from a band called Autechre, and their album Exai. I was interested in the weird and interesting cover of their image, and I felt like I would like to add something like that to my digipak in some way. I then went on to see the cover for Policia's album , Shulamith. I found this to be very different, and the pixelated image really appealed to me and I felt intrigued by the design. Although I have been already set on the front cover for my design, I felt like I should add a design like this into my digipak. As someone who takes an interest in Joy Division, I have always found the album Unknown Pleasures to be one of the most significant album covers of all time. I really like the idea of having a small image placed onto a plain background. From these designs, I was able to come up with an idea for the one panel that I was struggling with, and I feel as though it suits the audience that I am aiming for this digipak to be aimed at as of the bands and images that it is related to.
Autechre, Exai -
Policia, Shulamith -
Joy Division, Unknown Pleasures -
I was able to create this, however I wasn't entirely happy with the way it looked when stretched for the square, so I had to make some alterations to it.
This lead to my final design of the digipak and this panel being altered to be turn out like it has done below.
