Construction of the Digipak


To edit our Digipak we used the programme photoshop. In order to create the six panels we needed six different pictures. For the front and back panels we wanted them to join together smoothly, so that the tree would become the spine. To do this i created a blank image two times the size of a panel,
making sure i added a centimetre to the width for the spine of the digipak.
After importing the drawn image of the tree onto our template in photoshop i then began to construct the digipak. The main font I used is called delectable which we found and downloaded from the website DaFont. I chose this font as it has a similar style to the branches of the tree.


After inserting all the font i then added a barcode to the back cover to make it appear like a real digipak. The next panel i worked on was the middle panel. For this panel i decided to insert the rights to the songs and other details about the album. I decided to stick to a simple plain white background and use half of the tree so that it was uniform with the front and back panels of our digipak.


After doing this panel i then edited 3 pictures for the inside of my digipak. So that all of the pictures were uniform i added a vinergerette filter to them in photoshop. I also faded one of the images onto another image so that the guy in the picture looked like he was fading away. 



Finally i imported all the images onto my template and inserted a cd holder over the middle image.
