Digi Pack Development

Whilst I've been away editing this week, Reece and Sean have been working hard with the digi packs and I'm really happy with the progress, but would also like to suggest a few things. The guys are making some really awesome, creative works which reflect the genere effectively. The only complaints I have with this double page particularly is that it breaks conventions slightly. Most double pages are used either to full (so the drawing would have to take up more space because it leaves too much space) or that there is either a piece of art/image accompained by text - the lyrics often enough. I think this would be a cool thing to see so I've suggested it to the guys. Otherwise its cracking on well.

  1. CONVENTIONS ARE MEANT TO BE BROKEN.

  2. I would agree that you can break convention, but you must make sure it's for the right reasons and that you follow through. Is the video conventional? If so, harder to justify breaking conventions on the digi-pak. Conversely, if you are going to break convention, can you justify it in terms of audience as well as in terms of genre? You have to be able to explain why you did it as well as how. Remember - any shift away from expectation may alienate your audience (unless they expect a lack of conformity...?)
