For progress on the printwork (digipak and advertisement) I have mainly been in charge of the photoshoots, planning different panes of the digipak and thinking of creative ideas in which we can frame certain pictures we want to incorporate.
Many of our ideas for the printwork have been revolved around the grosvenor and Bedgebury shoots so most of the shots we took on shoots 1 and 2 have been very experimental, such as the picture below which we have since decided to discard.
However, one of the pictures we have always had planned for our back pane of the digipak was a focused picture of headphones, doing this to represent Jack Garratt as an authentic artist, credible for his own music, we took the picture from a variety of angles and decided the picture at the bottom would be most suitable.
To decide which was most suitable I took the framing and cropping that would be necessary to fit a digipak pane into account, the bottom picture has plenty of space to the left of the headphone for a listing of tracks for the 'Phase' album, something we will definitely try to achieve. Furthermore it also has more tones of light and shadow which I believe captures the attention of a person more, especially if colour editing is made to it, which we plan on doing.

This picture has plenty of space for information on the record label 'Island Records' as well as a barcode, for example in the bottom right corner. We plan on adding colour to the picture which fades across it in different shades as well as trying to reflect the editing used in the video in the digipak also, perhaps by adding a black and white filter. We will achieve this in photoshop fundamentally by cropping the image to the correct proportions and adding a suitable text to the pane, after looking we have decided a font called 'Typographica' may be appropriate as it reflects and highlights similarities between the typography used on many of Jack Garratt's EP's.
