Dig Pack Spine

This is my digipacks spine which i created to co-existed with pre-existing images. The blue goes to follow the color scheme of most of the images in my digipack, the golden color writing on king to show the color most associated with royalty and wealth gold. I then left the color white to add simplicity as well as making it straight forward like my artist King J. 



Things changed from feedback of first draft

Since we played our first draft to our class we have made a few considerable changes to the video as a whole. The whole costume of King J has changed quite dramatically. Before, King J was predominantly wearing a tracksuit. However, our feedback stated that this costume made the video look a bit like it was from the grime genre. To resolve this we changed the costume so that King J was instead wearing designer clothes such as shirts and jeans with smart shoes. We have also changed some of the locations for our video. For the opening scene of our first draft we had it at some local garages. However, again our feedback said that the video looked too grime like so we changed these locations. The opening scenes will be re-filmed in Greenwich where there is nice scenery and quite prestigious looking buildings. We also filmed at a hill in Thamesmead which had a really nice view of the city around King J. It also showed him from quite high up in order to represent his journey to the top. This idea is also shown through his clothing which is quite rich and more expensive. This is a nice contrast especially in the scenes on the hill.

Production schedule for re-filming


These are the recorded days that my group has gone to do productions and recorded scenes for our music video. 


Tuesday 3rd January- 2 hour filming session during lesson (Thamesmead- hill shots)

Wednesday 18th January- 2-3 hour filming session after school (Greenwich Cutty Sark- night shots)

Tuesday 24th January- 2 hour filming session during lesson (Welling- final shots)

These 3 dates were all the shoots we did after our first draft in order to improve our video. On all of these shoots we used our director's camera with no other equipment. This limited us in resources but allowed used our imagination and the skills and techniques which we have been taught to still make a productive filming session.

Digi Pack Fonts

As I'm doing a digipack i thought i would need to find a digipack that could used for me to show my artist's genre and still remain unique and original. I went to the site 'Da Font' and these are what i found

!st Locations

These are some of the locations we decided we may use to film, this is long over due but were going to decide where we should film after more planning.



This location was potentially chosen due to it high amount of graffiti which would show a more urban side.



This was used as a passage way as our Artist moved closer into the tunnel
Although we haven't filmed here we hoped to film here for the final cut


These location were the ones that I thought would fit our music video as there are in my general area and places that I usually pass by everyday.

Words of Wisdom

The issue that i later fixed with this my words of wisdom which covers the lyric books, is the color. what i did for my final one was lower the color making it more dull yet glossy.

Final Album Cover


This is pretty much the same other than adding of the advisory sign in the comer and removing the crown as it looked out of place.

Cd Cover 2


I made this one last minute because i realized my previous one didn't work out as much being green.

Magazine advert pre digipack

This is my magazine advert, This was rearranged using all the textiles. I had difficulties with getting it straight and making my text even. This was solves through using the ruler tool on Photoshop. I also got a font from Dafont called The Novice which i felt really made it look realistic. To add some flairs i added the yellow text.

Music Video first Draft



This is the first draft of our film day and night. Although it seems a bit patchy, and in synchronized it is a place to start, and it will only continue to get better. We tried to follow our cinematic but as we realized not everything goes as planned.
