During this session I decided on what pictures would be included on my digipak. I selected 6 photos to place upon the template which I thought were the most suitable and best photos to use.
I began by starting on the front cover. I began to create layers in order to edit my photos. After learning how to do colour isolation I started with that selecting the parts to stay in colour (me, Jack Davenport and Jack Rundle). Once I highlighted the parts using the quick selection tool I added a layer to change the background colour to black and white. I then decided to repeat this for my back cover and a fold in cover. I again used the quick selection tool highlighting around myself and adding a layer to change the background to Black and white. The other three photos I decided to use I changed it just into black and white.
Once this was done, I added the institutional information. I began by adding the Logo onto the spine, front cover and back cover of my digipak. I then added the album title, song names and copyright disclaimer to the back and front cover (using my selected font Superclarendon). I then added a barcode to the back cover too and after that the placement for the CD itself.
After this was done my digipak was ready. To make the vinyl cover i just required the front and back cover of my digipak to place it into my template.
In this session I created both the digipak and vinyl covers. It went as plan and previous research helped me achieve what I wanted to matching my expectations and the genre convention expectations as well.
