Album: Bon Iver
Location: Outdoors by a lake, and possibly a mountainous area. Nature is forming around a small lake house centered in the 'watercolour' type painting of this scene. It seems silent and relaxing, with no sign of urban life.
Colours: The colours are slightly washed out due to the 'watercolour' feel. The image has natural, blue, green and browns; the neutral colours are contrasted slightly with a strong red colour, which creates a feeling the painting has peeled back slightly.
Font: No font features on the front cover, this lets the image be appreciated, like the nature and beauty is in this secluded place.
Editing: The use of the 'watercolour' has enhanced the creative and unique feel of Indie Artists Digi Packs and is a great example of an arty approach to it.
Symbolism: This reflects Bon Iver's music and soft voice perfectly.
Lighting: The lighting is natural and has a sense of the sun reflecting off the lake, which brightens the whole image and makes it look fresh.
Props/Mise-En-Scene: The only sign of life in this painting, is the small lake house.
Album: A book like this
Location: Again the cover has an artistic feel to it due to the image of the three children in the outskirts of a town/village have been created in a pencil, or chalk and charcoal style. I find this image interesting as the choice the children can make is linked to the name of the album as it is like a story, should they explore life by going into the village or the forest; they have different pathways.
Colours: The colours are a monochrome, black & white, giving the impression that you create your own story and colour in your life.
Font: The font for the Title and Artist is the same but the artist is more prominent on the digi-pack as it is spread over the top of the cover, and the title is smaller but closer to the children, showing it links to them. The font is a fairy tale style, again in black.
Editing: No editing is really used, but the use of a piece of art as the cover is a typical indie convention.
Symbolism: The symbolism of Angus and Julia Stone's album cover seems to be that you write your own story and novel and you can pick and choose how you live your life, and how your book progresses.
Lighting: The whole image is slightly dark and mysterious, again giving the implication that you create your own colour.
Props: A sign is used to show the different ways in which your path can take you, and the kids toys enhances there age.
Mise-En-Scene: The costume seems to be fairy tale/storybook like, which links very well.
Album: Last smoke before the snow storm
Subject: The subject of this image is not clear although i can pick apart the parts and see that in the centre it is an image of the world, around it is illustrations of natural wonders of the world. Such as, flowers, waves, wood, shells and many more. The contrast of the image to the title is also visible.
Colours: The colours in this image are a mix match of muted colours, there seem to be pinks, blues, blacks, whites and creams, the mixture may represent the different areas or the world.
Font: The font of the Artists name seems to be in a basic font centered at the top. The title is in a smaller font again, all lowercase.
Editing: The editing is the about of different artistic illustrations overlay onto each other creating a collage type image.
Symbolism: The symbolism seems to be that the artist is singing about all the natural happenings of the world.
Lighting: The lighting is all produced by the colours used in the illustrations.
Props/Mise-En-Scene: There are not really props or mise-en-scene present in the whole image but there would be in the inspiration of the individual illustrated images.
