The above images are of the digipak (Final version) The first image is the front cover, the second image is the inlay and the final image the back. With our front cover it is clear we have used one artist on the album cover, the reason behind this is we wanted to have one artist to be the front man of the group. We used the parental advisory sticker on the cover as well as this was something that featured on album covers within the same genre. Moving on to the inlay now, the symmetrical image of the girl from behind may shock some people, however once again after doing research into digipaks from the hip hop genre, these kind of images were highly featured (50 CENT The Massacre) It also links in with the Laura Mulvey theory and the male gaze and therefore we decided to put it in. Finally the back of the digipak. As you can see the background is continuous from the front image, we have done this for consistency purposes. The layout is based on Eminem's curtain call album as we wanted to make sure we were doing it right in line with typical hip hop conventions.
