MAKING OF MY DIGIPAK

First I had to chose an image I wanted for my digipak. I chose to have

this image for my digipak back cover

because it was a shot from my music video and I think that it is

quite an iconic scene in my music video but also sums up the meaning of

the song giving the audience a brief idea

what the song meaning is going to be about. I

also decided that when making my digipak I will

be using Photoshop which is a program I have used a lot in the

past.

Then I found an image of my record label that I will be using and I placed it on my digipak. I chose to put it on the bottom right

because after looking at other

artists CDs on that record label most of

their back covers have the Bridge

Nine record label logo on the bottom

of the cover.

After finding a logo for my record label

to put on my digipak I then found a

barcode to put on my digipak to make

it look a lot more realistic to real

digipak products. I again placed this on the right hand side of my digipak so it would line to with

my logo which is on the bottom right of my digipak.

After adding the barcode and logo of my record company I then added

some small print on the bottom of my digipak. I chose to do this because

after looking at other products I realised that they had this small print or something along the

lines of what I have written. I chose to promote my bands

record label, website but also the store where you can buy merchandise for

my band. I did this because I think it’s a

good use of marketing for my bands image.

After adding all the realistic elements to my digipak I then added the songs which would be on the album. As my album

is a single I had to make up names for the songs on the album. Usually singles have

extended versions, remix's of the single along with the

single version of the song so I have chosen to keep this

when making my digipak. To create the writing I used

dafont and illustrator because I was able to editing the size

of my writing without pixilating the font but also the writing was unique to dafont and there wasn’t any writing which had the bold edgy font which is iconic to the record

company Bridge Nine use with their other bands.
