17. Digi-pack The digi-pack had to have a Caribbean feel. Which is why we chose the bright, almost-neon colours for the front and inside. We also added a palm tree to the front cover because we felt that this would connote the Caribbean and that this digi-pack would link to the Caribbean. The font for the wording was chosen to give a superstar, name in big, bold lights feel. As if the band are a huge success. I like the digi-pack because it shows the true colours of what Soca stands for. Which is standing out and having fun.
18. Music Video These are some signature images from the music video. Very bright, summertime, happiness, fun directed. Which is exactly what we wanted to connote. Because the music is very upbeat and carnival orientated we had to try our hardest to show this through our video without involving an actually carnival. Which meant we had to focus on other things that were well known for carnival, such as sunshine, fun, dancing, bright colours etc. We added shots of London because we are from London and we --> -- > wanted to bring the carnival/Caribbean feel to London
