Digipack

When constructing the digipack for our music video, first of all we needed to take a number of images of our background and characters. This was to give us a wide selection of images to choose from and edit the images.

When editing the photos used for our digipack, we were able to use the Photoshop editing software. First of all we needed to crop the most important object from our images such as the character. The quick selection tool allowed us to cut the background from the image so that we were left with just the artist.

Once I had cut the background from the artist, I was able to paste the cropped image onto another image of the woodland, based background. When I had pasted the image onto the background, I found that there was a different contrast between the two images. To merge to two images together in the same colour and context, I was able to edit the saturation and lighting of the image. Once I had found the right level of light and saturation between the images, I could then use the apple feature “screengrab” to cut the central image for my digipack and save the image as a file.

With my saved image, I then used a PowerPoint presentation to add a border to the central image and add text onto the digipack. When adding the borer I was able to add rectangular shapes together. Once I added the shapes I was then able to format the shape colour into a black and white colour to stand out more as an album cover.

Finally, when adding text to the digipack slides, I used the website “urbanfonts” to give me a better more “stand out” font for the digipack. I was able to download the font and add the text using PowerPoint text box, onto our digipack. Finally, once I had the complete digipack slide, I then used the screengrab feature to crop the background and save the image as a complete file.
