Functionality of Digipak

Image
I created a Digipak example to highlight how my Digipak design would look on an actual Digipak case. I created this using the warp tool on Abdobe Photoshop onto a blank Digipak template from Google. I also used the crop tool to select individual panels so that I could manipulate them easily. I used the transform tool to resize the images and used the eraser tool to eliminate unwanted areas.

Creating My Digipak

In this post I discuss how I created my digipak and showcase the final product. This is the final product of the digipak I created in Abdobe photoshop. I imported images that were screenshots from the music video footage aswell as selecting an image from google of blurred lights and the logo and barcode featured on the back of the digipak. I used the elliptical marquee tool to cut a CD shape from one of the screenshotted images from the video itself. I used the horizontal type text tool to create the album cover title and back cover track list, and rotated text for the album spine. I went into image options and made one of my selected images black and white to contrast with the colourful blurred lights in the image opposite, connoting the themes and lighting we used in the video itself.

Digipak First Draft

In this post I show my first draft of my digipak with critical analysis and what I plan to change and develop This is the first draft of my digipak design, hand-drawn and labelled. On the front cover I drew a long shot from behind the protagonist, on the beach, which would be a still from the video itself. At the top of this section I put the album title. On the back of the digipak, I put the artist name and a track list with a background that would be a still of the sky from a shot from our music video footage. On the other panels I designed shots of rocks at a beach, where the conclusion to the music video is filmed, and a still from the video, where Hannah is sitting on the edge of her bed looking distressed. The actual CD has an image of blurry lights against a white background, and the artist and album name are along the spine of the digipak.
