This document discusses photos taken for a band's album digipak. The photographer took test shots at night with long exposures to capture car lights and backgrounds. They selected 3 photos to edit for the digipak, changing effects like black and white. One favorite photo used a 6 second shutter speed and flash to get the urban location and subject lit well. The effects only worked if the photographer and model remained still. They discussed various photos, noting when the subject or lights were blurred or out of focus, and decided the best photos to edit for the front cover and behind the CD.

1. DIGIPAK
We have looked at some previous album
work from other artists and decided to do a
test shoot to see what effects work well. We
believe that this shoot was successful.

2. These photos are unclear and not in focus, not just will but the background
doesn't’t look good either.

3. This is my favourite photo. We took the photos on a low shutter speed of about 6 seconds and a long
exposure, to get the effect of the car lights and background behind it. We used flash as it was late at
night. The location looks urban which fits well with what we want to achieve on our music video. I am
going to choose 3 photos to use on our digipak from this shoot to edit. We are going to put filters on
these photos and change the effects so they appear different. Such as; Black and white.

4. This photo wasn’t as good because
it’s slightly blurred. If it was more
in focus it would look better. We
used this angel to make it look as
if the lights were appearing
forward/towards us.
Seeing where the camera was put
with a bit of the concrete on show
looks nice and is used in other
photos which will be good to edit.
The effects we have been using on
the camera only working if the
photographer and model is still.

5. This photo could work as a front cover because it’s in focus and clear. However Will’s face
looks a little blurred but could be made better. The colours of the green light have worked
out well. I’m going to put this into my top 3 and on my list to edit In order for it to be on
the digipak. We used a flash at around 1.1 so it didn’t over power the image but still
manages to capture it showing detail. However in this one

6. This photo is blurred again. However with Will facing this way the
colour from the traffic lights look really good.

8. This photo is nice because you can see where the camera is put. The light looks nice and
this is a possibility to edit however it looks fairly similar to other photos and we have
decided to put only 3 photos from our night shoot. Therefore we have to choose from
this and a similar one of what we are going to use.

9. The lights look really good here however it
would look better if Will was in focus

10. I have used a fish eye lens to add this circle effect around the photo. I
think this works well and the blurred lights/colours from a really slow
shutter speed work nicely together. We think this would be best to put
behind the CD disc therefore we are going to edit this one as well.

12. Will’s face is blurred so it doesn’t
look as good

13. This photo is unclear and hazy towards the top because the light is like
that. If this was took again or from a different angle it would look better.

14. These photos wouldn’t work as well because they are quite dark. Although the
effect of a small dim light looks nice, it still looks to dark to use.
