Editing the Digipak

Outside Panels:



Using photoshop for the ancillary was difficult because I am not very good at using it. What I am doing above, is trying to make the backgrounds of both sides of my digipak the same colour. I matched the colour of the background of the actual photo, to the background of the rest of the outside panels. Also, I started a draft of the inside panel, opening a photo that was taken at West Silvertown.

Editing the Advertisement



In these photos, I am adding logos for itunes and hmv, for where the song will be available and this is conventional for advert for CDs. I started by searching for the correct logo on google, and I saved the images to my desktop and opened it in Photoshop I changed that sizes and put it in correct places.

Ancillary photographs

Ancillary Photo Shortlist



These are my shortlist photos because among all the photos we took, I like how 'Bobby and Brix, look in these photos, Also, I like that they are posing on a white background, instead of the ones that we took on the black background. The photos of the separately is for if I was to place them in different positions on the page.

Photo locations

For the outside panels of the digipak and the advertisement, we will use either a plan black or white background, or a green screen. This is because, from our research of similar genres, the backgrounds are usually plain. And we might use the green screen in case we want add any small special effects.

For the inside panel of my digipak, I want to use a photo of either West silver town - where we shot the verses of of the music video - or the suicide bridge in Archway, where the chorus was filmed.
I chose to do this because, these locations relate to the music video, with our being too specific and excluding the other songs on the album. Also, I think that these places relate to the urban genre of the artists, since the places are in London.
