This is my draft digipack. Here, the main theme was to portray a diverse interpretation of 'the northern lights' by using a white background against what is supposed to symbolise the northern lights using regular colours identified in the colour spectrum. However, this idea only remained within the front cover, track list and 'special thanks to' page. The CD holder slide was intended to replicate an extreme close up of the iris and pupil of an eye using the colours of the northern lights, and instead of a black pupil, I used white with rigid edges to create an angelic aspect. The artist images are close ups of the artist, one with very little (and hardly noticeable) effects, the other has been completely reverted into a neon glow on the highlights, so the silhouette of the artist is in varying colours.

Overall I found that this digipack looked unprofessional and looks, in my opinion, amateur. The colours against the white background look okay, but they do not flow due to the spray effect, nor do they procure a sharp, elegant effect. The CD holder side looks the most unprofessional, and encouraged me to sway towards not using this digipack.
