This is my first attempt at figuring out how to use this beast that is photoshop, so I begin by experimenting with layering and using different pictures and seeing which ones will work best with my digipak and if this effect works at all. I have also laid down the track list as a rough guide as to what i want it to look like. I also place down the logos as this is the easiest part.
I have chosen this to be the front image of the album cover, because it is a close up of the artist and it establishes her very well. Also at this point I was going for the simple black and white colour scheme. The font I have used for the title is Levibrush which i plan to remain consistent throughout. There is a strikethrough in the album name which i might change.
In my mock up I wanted to have blue in the colour scheme also. And therefore I learnt how to enhance the blue eye colour and to use the colour throughout, which is why i colourized the back panel too and used a lovely image of the artist. Although I do think it is a bit too much and too bright, so after suggestion from Dan i went back to black and white and changed the font colour to blue.
This is the first plan of my inside panels, I have realised that perhaps I have used too many pictures of the artist, and the CD housing covers the artists face also. This is something I will change and perhaps add a quote from the artist.
