These are my font ideas for the back panel of my digipack. I chose these because they relate to the scrabble board on the front panel and create a connection between them.
The reason I chose two images such as these is because they link to the music video. They familiarise the audience with the band and they are not overcomposed images which relate to the jazz of the band. It will appeal to it's target audience because they are familiar with instruments and the girl is a similar age to the target audience.
This is my original idea for panel 4, however I am unsure whether I definately want this for panel 4 because I was also thinking about having it as panel 3 with the CD on top of it. This is because I don't think it catches the attention of the audience as much as panels 1 and 4 need to.
What does 'White Girl' say about identity, youth, modernist and post modernist cocepts of identity?
'White Girl' shows how concepts of identity have changed over time. Whilst the main character, Leah, has a post modernist concept of identity, the older generations have a more modernist concept of identity and believe that Leah should inherit her identity from them. Michel Maffesoli's view that people 'try on' different identity's is demonstrated in 'White Girl' when Leah turns to religion and becomes a muslim, showing her identity through her head scarf that she wears. The rest of her family disagree with what she is doing and believe she is embarrassing them because she is different to what they believe she should be like. This shows that youth's identity fits with Mikhail Baklin's view that identity is never finalised. We are forever changing and it is a journey that we go through.
'White Girl' shows that identity is a narrative of the self. It demonstrates both Paul Ricoeur and Anthony Giddens, showing that we create a narrative for our lives and follow this is find our identity, trying on others in the mean time. Giddens said that we keep evolving our identity, this is demonstrated throughout 'White Girl' in the way Leah changes from being forced to be a drug dealer, becoming a muslim and then being with her family in the end. Her identity changes throughout the film and she shows this through the ways she dresses and behaves, which takes on a post modernist concept of identity. Leah's identity is a reflexive project which she works on through out the film to find her identity.
