Digipak Initial Ideas

I have discovered this album cover from The Crookes for their album 'Hold Fast'. The design idea of the four images - one of each member of the band - all in the same type of shot interested me and is something that I'd like to incorporate in my digipak design. Because Matutine is a single artist, all of the four images on the cover would be of her but holding a different pose/facial expression in each photo, similar to the photo shoot of Kaya Scodelario shown below.

This idea would be effective because it would present the audience with a persona of the artist and would build upon her image as it reveals features of her character. All the photos would be mid-shots and would show the face on portfolio of the artist - very similar to the photos in artwork of 'Hold Fast'. However, the photos of my artist would be less serious and would be similar to those that Kaya is showing in the photo reel above.

This technique can also be seen in the artwork for The Weeknd's mixtape 'Thursday'. The photos are arranged and portrayed in a such a way that the day Thursday is seen of some significance which is a clever use of this technique and makes an interesting artwork.
