Creating the Digipak

When it came to getting the image of the strobe light it was quite difficult, but I did manage to get many shots, which I thought I could work with. However when I uploaded them onto Adobe Photoshop they didn’t look as good, and when I enlarged them to fit she shape of the Digipak they became pixelated, and looked unprofessional. Because of this I decided to change the idea of having a strobe light and speaker, to something, which would be easy to get pictures of but still link with the style of music. I chose to have the image of a car, from the side for the front and back cover. For the inside covers I decided I would carry on the theme of having a car and have the inside of the car on both sides. I did this because when the Digipak is opened up it looks like you are opening the car door and looking inside. I used a variety of tools, such as the colour enhancement, paintbrush, lasso, to edit my photos. I had used Adobe Photoshop last year when creating my magazine, so I had quite good experience with using it, so it wasn’t too difficult to achieve the look that I wanted.
