The colour scheme for my Digipak is gold, black and white.
Idecided upon these colours as they are linked with religion and
Iopted to play on our band name Presbyterian church of Korea.This
Religious link also explains the album name Sacrilege.
The first influence for my front cover is sourced from the
Justicecrucifix artwork pictured to the bottom right. I altered
the
dimensions slightly in order to work with the image of the band
onthe cover.

For the draft version of my Digipak the cover featured a
girlstanding in the foreground of a church as I aimed to recreate
EwenSpencers photography for The Streets album a grand dont comefor
free which I blogged about a few weeks ago. However after
taking these photos, I blogged about the quality not being up
toscratch. So I changed the image to one of the band that I took
onthe recording day. Initially I went for a vaccines inspired image
ona white background, however it looked more aesthetically
pleasingto have a white outline around the trio on a black
background. Igained inspiration for this idea firstly from a
Disclosures artworkwhere the outline of the duo is covered with a
white mask:
The second aspect to my influence was a chalk outline of a
bodythat I discover when browsing the Internet: I then complied
these
ideas together to create a white outline around the edge of
theband image, which I cut out on Photoshop. This created an
imageof the band that stood out and became the focal point of the
cover.
It then enabled me to create a brand image forthe band and
album, which I carried forth tomy poster by using a similar
format.

The back cover of my Digipak was heavily influenced by
EwenSpencers photography for The Streets album a grand dont comefor
free but with a minimal look, which is conventional with that ofmy
bands genre Indietronic. I blogged about this a few weeks
ago:
As for the Left cover I photographed the pattern that I found on
anold bible in my house, I then cut it out and copied it over and
overto make a pattern.
