Divide DigipackJack Hebberd

Front CoverThis is my front cover for my digipack, This is one of the main photos that I have used through out the whole of my coursework for several reasons. The first reason isbecause it allows for the band to clearly be seen and allows for the audience to seethe band and what they are wearing. The second reason why I have used this photo so much is because using it so many timeswill allows for the band to create a band identity, this means when ever fans see theband they will think about them and thinkabout there products like the website and digipack and hopefully buy them. The way that I constructed the front cover of my digi-pack was to firstly take the photo that I wanted to use on my digipack. I then import-ed this photo into photo shop where I put the filter Glowing edges. I then messed arou-nd with the three settings on the filter to get the look achieved here. When I came out of the filter screen there were several flatspots on the photo that were very easy to edit out using the colour pattern tool. I then added another filter to the photo. The filter was called lighting. This filter allowed for me to put a lighting spot on the photo and allowed for me to highlight area of the photo like the title and the faces of the actors. I then added the title, I went against the chosen title due to the way the photo looked. So I went with this comic looking title because of the fact that the photo looked like a comic photo. This then completed my front cover of my digipack.

Back CoverThis shows the back cover of my digipack, this shows the three band members and the recording producer. Also featured on the back cover is the bands name and the songs that would be on the album, they include the original song and edits ofit.This is the back cover of my digipack. To go along with the theme of the digipack that I started using on my front cover I used photos of the band again but in a close up, and again in colour. The way that I constructed the back cover was to take the four photos that I wanted to use, I then took these photos and put them in photoshop. I cropped these to the size shown to the side. I then put these photos into the filter area of photoshop. I used a pattern filter on the photo that made the photos go in a square pattern. I then played around with setting of the filter to make them look like they do. I then added the text to the photo and placed them where I wanted them. I then took the white background to the text away to make them look like they do.

Disk TrayThis is my disk tray for my digipack. This is where the disk will be sitting when the owner opens the digipack. The CD tray is in the middle of the digipack. The way that I constructed the middle section of my digipack is that I went into word and wrote the words “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. I then added the word divide. I then copied this and pasted it next to each other. After this was complete I saved it as a jpeg and opened it in Photoshop. I then added the filter and messed around the setting of the filter. I then pasted the image into this PowerPoint presentation and added my CD design over it. The reason why the CD matched the background is because I felt that it worked really well and went along with the overall look of the digipack and made it look like it was made by a professional.

Inside Front CoverThis is the inside front cover of my digipack. This is the part of the digipack that the user will see when they open the digipack and pull back the front cover. The way that I constructed the inside of my front cover is that I pasted the same text that I used in my disk tray into a translator, I then pasted these into the a word document and copied them and pasted them next to each other. I then saved it as a jpeg, and imported it into photoshop. I then added the filter that stayed the same from the last time. I then pasted it into this PowerPoint and put a box around them. The reason why I have put it in Japanese is because firstly it looks really cool and makes it look very old fashioned and professional. And secondly it allows people to realise that the album is a global thing and is available for people to buy all around the world.

Inside Back CoverThis is the inside back cover of my digipack. This is the part of the digipack that the user will see when they open the digipack and pull back the front cover and open up the back cover. The way that I constructed the inside of my front cover is that I pasted the same text that I used in my disk tray into a translator, I then pasted these into the a word document and copied them and pasted them next to each other. I then saved it as a jpeg, and imported it into photoshop. I then added the filter that stayed the same from the last time. I then pasted it into this PowerPoint and put a box around them. These words feature on this inside back cover is in Latin, it says the same things as the disk tray and the Japanese front inside cover “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth” (Copied from above slide)

Middle CoverThis is the middle cover of my digipack, the viewer will see this when they open the digipack and fold back the front cover. This part of the digipack again allows the viewers to see what the band looks like again to create a band identity, but will also allow the viewer to be welcomed to the digipack. The way that I constructed this part of my digipack is that I firstly imported the photo into photoshop and put the filter stamp on it, it gave the photo this type of look. I then messed around with the settings to make it look how it does. I then added the names of the artist and the title to finish the whole slide off. After it was complete I saved it and posted it in this powerpoint.

Finished Digipack

This is my final digipack all complete and put together. This is how the digipack would look before being folded up and packaged ready for sale. How I constructed this was that I scaled down all the previous slides and put them together. I then added a black line to divide the slides up and show the different parts of the digipack.
