CONSTRUCTION: DIGIPAK EDITING



Without the effect
For our Digipak design, we decided that it was key for us to continue the theme of superheros and comic books. We decided to manipulate several profile pictures of me in all the costumes featured in the music video. To perform this, i applied an effect called poster edges in the artistic section of the effects menu. It was fairly simple to create the effect and we selected the line fill and intensity after applying it. We then selected the brown background to turn white.

I also applied this effect on another photo but made it black and white so i could transfer it to the inside sleeve. This gave the digipak more exciting as i felt that i needed to make use of the empty space. See image below.



A problem i found with placing the words 'Don't stop' on the front cover of the digipak was that, to agree with the design, the words needed to be place on solid colour where they can be seen. Also, they needed to be the same colour as the band title's colour. I found i had to place the words on either side of the line and of equal distance making sure one wasn't slightly above the other.
