DVD Cover Assignment



This is cover and label that I did in the assignment A2B.

For the cover, I did it based on the idea of the DVD's title "FEARSIDE". Sometime, I look at the door and I think that may be in sometime or somewhere a normal door from your own house can lead you to the other side of the world where is differed from your real world. The door is represent different sides that you need you to discover and in this case this is fear side world. That also the reason that I did the lighting effect to represent for a mystery things in the other side world that need to be found.

I aslo add a teddy bear beside me. This is not because I want to be cute or cool. For the reason, I think that when someone enters to strange world in lonely situation. So they need something liked teddy' s friend that they can feel less nervous in unfamiliar world.

In the back of cover, I create wall with girl's shadow. In this term, I like to create an curious sensor for the viewers by shadow which can be represented an mystery feeling.

For the label, in the first time, I just simply copy and paste the cover photo into it. However, when I came to meet our teacher I have changed my mind about what he had told me to improve it. I think a suitable design should be created with the interactive methods as well. Hence, I use the little hole from label as effect of emty inside of teddy bear head. This like a continued stories which linked to cover design. This can be explain in this way:

_Front Cover: the girl entered to other side with teddy.
_Back Cover: because of something happened in the fearside she lost her bear and became lonely. She tried to find hear teddy.
_Label: when the girl found teddy, she may recognized that she was a ghost or something loked that and there was an empty space inside of teddy bear when she lost her friends...
