inspiration for my digi pack design

Here are some images that influenced my cover design and why it matches with the name of the cover

The scribbles in the image represent overwhelming overthinking and the struggle of mental illness, where thoughts become messy, heavy, and impossible to control. As the scribbles grow and surround the character, they symbolise how the mind becomes crowded and emotionally exhausted, making the person feel trapped inside their own thoughts. This connects to the concept of a coma metaphorically because, even though the person is physically present, their mind feels shut down and disconnected from reality, as if they are mentally frozen or unconscious due to the weight of their internal struggle.

how I incoperate this to my cover design

I incorporated this idea into my digi-pack cover design by using the scribble imagery as a visual representation of overthinking and mental struggle. The character’s head is replaced with tangled lines, symbolising how overwhelming thoughts take over the mind and blur identity and clarity. This connects to the concept of COMA because the figure appears physically present but mentally consumed, suggesting emotional numbness and disconnection from reality. By placing the scribble inside the title itself, I visually reinforced the theme that the mind is trapped within its own thoughts, directly linking the album name to the experience of mental paralysis.

Genre and Mood exploration

Here, I aimed to explore the genre and mood of similar songs to examine how the music video concept has been developed, and to investigate how the music video's narrative (the story) relates to the song's actual theme. The main theme and genre of my choice of song (Numb little bug ) Main theme - mentalillness, post liminal sad but beautiful Genre - Indie pop Some songs that depict a similar concept to the post-liminal theme and the genre of indie pop Ceilings by Lizzy McAlpine Heather by Connan Gray Ceiling By Lizzy McAlapine Theme - Grief and blurred memory after a breakup Genre - Indie pop The main meaning of the song can be interpreted in two ways: as a lingering feeling of a broken relationship or as the aftermath of an imagined scenario. The song can be taken as an understanding of the real-world situation of a breakup, even though the relationship wasn't real. How does the song lyric match the post-liminal concept? First chorus - The ch...

Behind the scenes

Here I'll show the behind-the-scenes of me filming my music video Here the camera was not the actors face is not in the middle of the screen so the shot was not right Here the camera was not the actor's face was not in the middle of the screen so the shot was not right I first wanted to take the shot where the dog was sitting beside her, but it was a failure because it did not show any interest, so we took the shot with the dog sitting down and looking up Small mistake She did not look angry enough in this shot I did not include this clip in the last MV It was actually a very fun experience filming the MV, but we also had an annoying number of mistakes which we had to correct and move forward. These show the wrong takes and the bloopers of filming (behind the scenes)

Practicing Photography of backgrounds(locations)

Here I will be practicing some photography with different backgrounds that bring out different moods Places Melancholy Place - A lane with houses This picture feels calm but a little lonely. The empty stone road and quiet houses make it seem peaceful, like no one is around. The dark clouds with bits of blue sky give it a dramatic feeling, like rain might come soon. It feels calm, quiet, and a little sad in a nice way. Scenes to film in this background (empty road and cloudy sky) can be used for a dramatic walking away scene, someone feeling lonely or lost. it can also be for a new beginning scene like someone coming to a new town. it’s good for a quiet talking moment between two characters or just before a storm to make it feel suspenseful. Serenity Place - A tea cultivation This background gives a very peaceful and calming feeling. The green tea bushes in the front with the mountains in the distance make it feel natural and quiet. The orange and pink sunset adds a warm, dre...
