Digipak Idea 1


Our first idea for the digipak design was loosely based on the digipak for Damien Rice's album '9.' It is a collection of symbols that we found all of which connote the idea of love. As you can tell from the picture there is a wide range of symbols from Japanese letters to aboriginal artwork to display the fact that love is universal and recognised worldwide.

We liked the concept of using symbols in our album as they are simplistic and raw, like the emotions we are trying to convey through our video. These emotions are also heavily laced throughout Christina Perri' songs, in particular Jar of Hearts. However, we decided that a didgipak solely dedicaed to symbols would be hard to pull off as not everybody would understand the meaning behind them and so it wouldn't connote the strong emotions we'd need it to. Our teachers also pointed out to us that i would be hard to maintain the use of symbols as there is only so many symbols we could use and that may not be enough to cover the digipak.
