making of my digipak

1. I first started on my album front cover as I knew what I wanted it to look like because of my drawn up draft.

3. Once I edited the photo and got rid of the microphone and background, I
decided that a linking theme throughout my products would be the black and
white as it means that the products look like they come from the same artist
and are advertising the same thing.

4. The next thing I did was try and get an effect that made the album cover
more aesthetically pleasing and look more like an album cover.
To do this I searched ‘sun effect on camera’ on google images as there was a few
shots from my music video that had the sun shining which I thought looked good,
so I decided I wanted to have that effect on my album cover.
once I chose the picture to give the effect I wanted I had to place it over the image that I
already had and then I turned the opacity up in order for the picture of my artist to appear
through.

5. I then did the same for my album back cover as I wanted them to look the same.

6. d this by making it a lot more simple that the front cover as I thought it would balance out the look,
I then decided to put a
picture on it to make it
more interesting

7. To get the back cover I just used my ready
made track list and made it the same font as
my front cover. I then made a border and
added a barcode and the Epitaph logo to
make it more realistic.

8. To get the effect of the blurred picture
I had to duplicate the layer two times.
I then changed the opacity of
both the first duplicate and
the second duplicate so that
you could see all layers
underneath. I then changed
the positions of all of the
duplicates so that they’re not
all in line which gave the
blurred effect.

9. enjoyed using the most was changing the transparency of the pictures as I feel it allows you to use
