Creating the Digipak

Although the first set of images that I took came out well, we as a group agreed that the pictures did not fit the concept well enough; as we wanted to create a young, vibrant and trendy brand identity for our artist.

Therefore, we ventured into London where I took some new images........

Editing 

The images were retouched and the levels and brightness were adjusted.

This image was chosen to be the front cover and was manipulated in several ways. Firstly, the image was given a comic book/pop art looking using special effects on photoshop; including the use of poster edges. This correlates with the visuals that were shown in the music video.

The album cover

As well as that the album needed a tracklist. So I took the following image, cropped it and added text in the font and colour that matched the front cover. 

The back (tracklist)

Below are the rest of the images that were chosen to be a part of 

the digipak.

Through photoshop the images were inserted into a digipak template. In this way we are able to see what the real image would look like.

Constructing Digipak and Advert 1st Attempt

These are the first images I took. My images were aimed to be for my group's digipak, and magazine advert. 

As you can see the majority of these images are close ups as this is how I envisioned our artist to be represented. It also allows the focus to be on the artist as the background I had to work with was not particularly interesting. 

These album covers and adverts are very similar to what I envisioned for our artist. 

Similar to this album, I also tried a more serious and contrasting look with black and white; because its simplicity captures your attention. 

 As a real record label would require for their artist, I have photo-shopped this image and airbrushed the artist's face to get rid of any blemishes to give the image a professional look.
