Copy

Original 

For the copy I decided to copy The Black Keys poster shown above. Even though this isn't a digipak, this is still part of music design, therefore this has similar attributes to a digipak. I decided to copy this poster as this uses the vector effect, created within Illustrator. I have very little experience when using Illustrator therefore I wanted to further expand my skills within Illustrator and experiment with this effect. The poster was also eye catching due to the colour scheme used, a triadic colour scheme using pastel colours. Even though the pastel colours aren't as vibrant as vibrant and saturated colours this is still eye catching.

The screenshots below show the creation of this copying, evidencing the different stages when creating the copy such as using the pen tool, outlining the different elements, positioning the elements and colouring the copy.

This is my final version of the copy for the poster. I think this copy is extremely successful as it is almost identical to the original version. I tried to make the copy as close as possible to the original and I feel that I have achieved this by looking at the final outcome. As well as this, copying the poster has also further expanded my skills within Illustrator, even though the copy looks simple it was more difficult than it looks. This is due to the shape of the instruments, and layering the shapes an the different parts of the instruments was difficult, especially the drum kit.
