Our digipak does not show our main artist or any other person. That is because we thought it would not be suitable as Band Of Horses and their recent albums do not show the band on the cover but it is all nature based.
However, we are going to include an eye inside the sun, which should represent that "someone" is watching. That is very loosely related to our music video as it should represent that if someone has done something wrong the truth is always coming out. It is like a gigantic eye watching every step people are making and reporting what they hide from each other. However, we though the eye would make the digipak look more interesting as the previous albums always show simple pictures, which were edited in a way that lets them look different.
The back of the digipak is going to be a blue sky with clouds in it. We chose that picture as it is related to our theme, which contains of sky, clouds and sun and there is not too much on the picture, which would make it difficult for people to read.
The next picture shows a pinecone held towards the sun. Through the sun the original shape of the pinecone is changed and we thought it created an interesting effect.
The tree is going to be black due to the sun and the contrast of the blue sky. Through the program Aperture the color of the sky is stronger, which makes the tree look black. It is a very nature based picture as the focus of this pictures is the twigs nobody would recognize when passing the tree in a normal light. At the back where the CD is supposed to be kept in we decided that a blue sky edited with Aperture would be enough as when the CD is in there the background cannot be seen and therefore it is not important to place a picture there, which has a lot of meaning.
The last picture again shows the sun with the eye in the middle, which again should remind us that "someone" is watching.
