Continuous work on digi-pak



The look and style that we wanted meant that we need to manipulate the different images to allow us to get the look we wanted for the imagery on the CD cover. The process of creating this type of image meant merging using various tools through photoshop. This idea that the original images of the band were manipulated to create the ideal look was the idea of Jack who said maybe a picture of the band was more effective than just a basic black and white spiral pattern.



The original image of the band was imposed onto the picture we took of the TV to use the analogue fuzziness of the the screen as the background.



Finally this is the two images merged together to give the final look, We are pleased with the imagery and will theme onto the following areas of the digi- pak and CD cover.


Inside Cover
The idea of using another image of the band incorporating the masks was something that came to us whilst editing the from cover, i think this ties in with the front cover well and the narrative of the video. The masks can be seen as a different part of the video and isn't fully understood until it is thought about conceptually so i think by using this images again, it ties in the band and the narrative well.




The imagery we manipulated on photoshop to blur the image fitting in the image on the front cover, this means you have to concentrate on the image to work out what it is showing.




Back panel



This is the original image for the back panel, basically we have decided to take a segment of of the image and manipulate it to create the same look to fit in with the other images and colours on the digi-pak.



This has allowed us to continue the theme throughout and uses another image of the band even if it is a segment so this highly features the band throughout the cover which the other digi-pak and CD cover doesn't. In hindsight i think this is a better idea it allows the band to be featured and being new artists this is the kinda of imagery and exposure they need to constantly be having to be recognisable.
