For our preliminary task we hand drew the artworks for our digi-pack covers and inserts. Using the heavy metal research and planning resources we had come upon through the internet and our own knowledge/equiptment we came to a conclusion that most of the logos and symbols related around the area of the genre referred to war, death, blood and more. This therefore gave us the idea for the helmeted skull simbalising war, the blooded grenade simbalising blood and grave stone simbalising death as well as relating to the concept of our band/group name "Hostile Forces."
Unable to find any pictures and images that we could use and edit we then hit the idea of drawing and scanning our own designs. This was a simply process of firstly setching the pictures, then with a black pen we went over the pencil marks in order to get a clear image when scanning in the documents and lastly scanning the documents onto a memory stick and transerring it to our group IMac in which we could edit and create our digi-packs.
We came up with this idea as I did the same procedure for my GCSE graphics coursework project as well as taking art for GCSE I therefore volunteered to create the designs. This allowed us to create a concpet for own band/group that was more convincing and related around the heavy metal genre. From this we can refer back to the procedure when performing our A2 music video coursework in the future and perphaps do the same.
