Ancillary Task- Digipak

This is the final draft for the digipak. To create this picture i took different screen shots of a long clip we filmed of everyone in the best frame that where in e.g. so looking forward and smiling, and also how the sparklers looked in the frame. I then took a black background and used that as a filler while i placed all my screen shots together. I used photoshop to edit these parts and used different layers to create the picture. I sharpened the picture to ensure the light from the sparklers was bright. I also darkened the picture using the hue and saturation on photoshop. I wanted the picture to focus primarily on on the sparklers and the relocation they make on the peoples faces. This makes the CD front cover to be simplistic. I wanted it to be simplistic as this relates back to my previous questionnaire of my first skeleton layout in which my focus group said they thought a simplistic design would be the best.

After editing in photoshop i transferred the picture to Indesign. There i put in the font and choose the colour of the font, the font i used was Chalkduster. I choose this font as it looked hand written and also the chalk effect helps with the theme of youth and school.

To create the back page, I imported the a barcode of the web and the took the logo off my blog. The background picture was some glitter agains t a black background. On Photoshop i changed the colour of the glitter from gold to a dark red. This is so it matched with the red colour scheme of the front cover.
