Digipak 1

This is the our very first mock-up of the digipak. It was heavily influenced by Vulfpeck's album cover art and just about every aspect of the digipak was made in their style.

The solid background colour was decided upon, as we felt that having multiple overlapping colours and imagery wouldn't necessarily fit the indie-funk genre. The colour of the background is #9bbede. This is the exact same colour of the background for the artwork of the song Christmas In L.A. as well as the album Fugue State.

Our digipak mock-up also has a picture of a bass guitar that has been cut-and-pasted three times, dropping shadows onto the ones beneath them. This is seen on nearly all of Vulfpeck's albums.

The fonts we used were an attempt to recreate the fonts that are used on other Vulfpeck albums. However, we feel that in trying to recreate this, we have limited ourselves in terms of making an effective funk digipak. This is because the font we ended up using doesn't look like the Vulfpeck font and also doesn't even look remotely funky. To fix this when making the final design, I think we should replace the bland font we chose with something a bit bubblier and funkier. However, whether this will fit with the simplistic style of the rest of the digipak remains to be seen.

These are examples of the fonts we were trying to recreate.
