2. Step1: The background
Just like the front cover and the
advert I wanted to use the same
dark blue gradient as it created a
smoother background than a
plain colour.
3. Step 2: Creating behind the cover
graphic
When designing the graphic
behind the cd cover I first wanted
to go off one of the song titles, for
this I chose the song CATS. As it’s
a house album I decided to make
the teeth all different coloured to
relate to the genre as well as this
the teeth are not regular cat teeth
it is more a big grin, this giving
the effect that its different from
normality, this meaning how
house is very different from pop
which is considered the most
popular and mainstream genre.
4. Step 2: Finishing the graphic
After going through a lot of
different eyes, some being too
cartoonish and others being too
complicated to perfect edit, I
finally came to a decision. These
eyes were first taken from an
actual cat and then changed to
also fit the rainbow effect of the
teeth. The space between the eyes
and teeth is just enough for the
hole that the cd has in the middle.
5. Step3: Adding the CD
To help make sure the graphic
was 100% accurate I had included
another layer with the CD on top
of the graphic.
6. What needs to be added
On the left side of the inside cover I want to add
image of our artist, however at this moment in
time our artist has been unavailable and so it has
been impossible to take the pictures I’m hoping
that soon we should be able to take the pictures
and thus include them, if not I may have to move
the graphic behind the CD cover onto the left
and add something a little more complex behind
the CD.
