Most of you have seen me carry an odd shaped trunk around. That will be the case for my packaging. Most of my progress has been structural so that I can have it to show on thursday for mini mock ups, so here's a similar but updated design of what I have in mind.
The case will open and showcase some collector items (a brass cross, holy water, wooden stake, a potion by Willow) on both sides of the dvds. The seven seasons will each get a slimpack dvd case and contain two discs each. There will be a tray, that will lay them flat and hold the items in place. There will be a wrap that goes over the trunk which you throw away upon purchase.
The concept is to showcase one main character on each dvd cover. There will also be a pattern, associated color, a quote from the character.
Please give me some feedback and tell me what works and what needs work!
Thanks!

I like your concept and I think that the red color with old design element in it for dvd and cover will complement the case you have well. It's difficult to give other constructive comment at this point.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! I like the colors/patterns a lot! Haven't seen the movie, but I like your concept. Actually I like the hand written text on white boxes (scene image), looks cool!
ReplyDeleteInstead of having Spike centered like that on your DVD image, maybe you could move him to the side because right now it looks awkward...
ReplyDeleteI really like your patterns and textures. I think that you could use a different type for the quotes and make them slightly bigger (but then that would interfere with the season type...)? I dunno. But yea, definitely change the quote type and make that stand out as well because that's apart of you DVD cover design... unless if you want it to look like the background?

The red background is awesome and works perfectly with the series. I think Christine said almost everything I would have said. Looks like they are coming out great so far. =)

Looks great but I agree that the type doesn't work with the show Textures in the background are awesome though.
ReplyDeletei don't know the feel for this doesn't work for me. the chess ideas is great. You could make each o the dvds feature a character for each season. but also have the feel of an old book but with a modern flair to it. the type could be a gothic or old script feel. almost calligraphy feel but ancient or medieval style. Or you could work and comicbook angle into it. the texture could be the inside of each dvd with different colors that still fit the tone of the show.
ReplyDeleteI would stylize the character photo on the disc so it doesn't seem like the photo is just recycled. You could even just do a close up crop of the face.
