Ancillary Production - Making Digipak

After using Rollip i then imported the filtered images into photoshop and added the final touches to the front of my digipak. I adjusted the hue and saturation to make the images look more purple which is the chosen colour by our group. I then made a change to the artists name to make the shadow the same colour as the background on the back cover by using the pipet tool on photoshop, i also changed the blue so it was a similar blue to the one created by the filter.

I then added the SonyMusic, Columbia Records and copyright logo along with copyright text for the album and a barcode with the website underneath. I also changed the basic blue spine by enlarging the image on the back cover to it went over the spine, this made it look less basic and much more professional. I then added white text to the spine to stand out over the dark background in the same text as the artists name.

Here is a screen shot of the front panel of my didipak after i made the changes.


Inside Panel
After finishing my outside panels i started on the inside. I used the same image from the mockup and used the same filter on Rollip and then added the same effects in photoshop to ensure it goes with the other images on the front panel. One change i have made since the mock up is enlarging the image so it covers both panels, i did this because the right panel looked very plain with just text. It worked well because half of the image is of 'Emily's' hair swinging behind her so on the left panel is her face and on the right is her hair with a cd template with artist and album name on top in the same text.
