Filming Session 3 & DigiPak Finalised (05/01/2015)

Our final filming session consisted of the last scenes of Esther from different angles to add to the final media product. This wide shot of Esther allows the viewers to capture a lonely atmosphere that matches to the lyrics of the song. Also the mis-en-scene in this shot rebels against the theory of 'The Male Gaze' as it is quite dull and dark. The only part of this image which stands out is her guitar which represents importance her music is to her, rather than the focus being on herself



The shot of her strumming on the acoustic guitar emphasises that genre of her original song and how the melody of her music flows with a fairytale theme through both the song and narrative.

As I had mentioned when researching DigiPak's, the concept of the design reflects the personality of the artist as well as their music style and other personal aspects. Originally we agreed to a black and white effect throughout the DigiPak which relates to the final media product. However, we thought as well as expressing the emotions through the simplicity of the colours, we also needed to represent the boldness of the artist through colour, which is why this is the final draft for our DigiPak. The use of the bright and bold colours on the front cover and inside cover adds a glamorous look to the image of a new and upcoming artist, as well as the black and white, which represents a sense of mystery and deep thought reflected from the artist. We used the idea of collaged images of Esther from Justin Timberlake's 20/20 Experience album, to invoke the personal aspect on the DigiPak, as it can attract a younger audience who can look up to Esther as a role model and favourite singer.
