Digipak: Research and Developement

This blog showcases the research that went behind the production of the Digipak and the developments we made along the way. This blogpost and the digipak was made and designed by me (Gusde).

Reflection:

For the research aspect it was fairly hard to find albulms that fit our desired branding and mise en scene but after going through a bunch of inspiration from websites such as rolling stones and discogs I found some albulms that we could get inspiration from. A highlight from the researching process was going through my vinyl collections with my team and findings one thats struck out to us. 

As for development I ran into a few struggles firstly the location it was on my rooftop so there was an inherent risk as there was no fencing but we tried to keep to the middle as to not fall. There was alot of sharp and rusty metal which meant that shoes were a must. Then it was the weather as we used chalk to write on the ground the rain would've erased and washed it all away so we had to do things fast and when the weather was good. As well I had a helping hand as I told my cousin Aksyara to help sketch, trace and draw the artwork and that was really helpful as for the front cover one person had to laydown to be traced. In the end, thankfully we got a few hours on a few days without rain even though bali is going through a bit of a rainy season right now and that was all we need to finish it.
