Rough Dikipak & Poster Images








With these images, I took time in debating which would look best as a poster and which 3 images would match each other to create an individual and personal digipak to the band. The last two images are of the final image I chose as the front cover of the digipak uploaded in to photoshop which is the software I used to create my digipak. Creating the digipak was as simple as taking my chosen images and adding text over the top and this is why I have print screened my image in photoshop and print screened the tool I used to incorporate text on to my image.

Still Shots









These are some still shots from the filming I have done, I also combined my photography work with my media previously and this gave me good shots of the band. I also took photos of the band when I filmed at Odd Bar. Hopefully these shoots will supply me with images to use for the digipak and poster.

Rough Cut 2



I love how the footage from the garage has worked out, I love the ambience and I think it all fits in nicely with what I am trying to achieve with this video.
After filming the band for weeks at any chance I can get I have also caught footage of the band playing at a party. I think the footage I have used here has worked in well and goes along with the song and lyrics perfectly, once again the lighting and setting fits in brilliant too.
