2. Front cover
Changes made for my front cover include darkening the background image in
‘Photoshop’ to a more brown faded colour, a theme I have used in all panels.
Also, I have included a review of the album from a music magazine in order to
promote my album, and increase its popularity factor to the viewer as they
will be more favourable towards purchasing the album if it has good reviews.
3. Back cover
The only changes I made to this were the additional ‘fine details’, as I felt the
overall image of this was good and worked well with the rest of the panels.
I have however, included the names of the distributer, manufacturer, and record
label, as well as the name of the album along the side, and 2 extra tracks. This is
to ensure my digipak is more professional, and increase its popularity and
likeability with the extra tracks.
4. Panels
The only real significant
change I have made here
is the addition of the artist
to fill the blank space
from the middle picture.
This will increase the
artists popularity to the
audience as he is a main
highlight of the picture
and so make him more
recognisable. Also, I have
included the name of the
band onto each panel, so
that the name will be
shown throughout the
digipak and get ‘stuck’
into the viewers mind.
5. CD holder
I decided not to make any changes to the CD holder as I feel that it is
effective as it is already, as I feel the image of the curtains is a good symbol
of theatre curtains, and the anticipation the audience gets when waiting
for them to open to signify the start of the play. This symbolism is good for
my digipak as it hopefully highlights the anticipation the listener should feel
when waiting to hear the songs.
