Editing used in our digipack

To create our digipack we used the application Photoshop. We uploaded the images which we wanted to use into our templates on the programme. We then began to edit the images making them more bright and bold.

We initially had a play around with the different icons on the programme to see what was what. We found 'colour corrector' under the 'image' and 'adjustments' icon. We used the colour corrector to change the colour of each of our images in order to make them different and eye catching. We played round with the reds, the greens and the blues to get the colours that we liked. We outlined our four images with a line tool, we altered the thickness of the line and the adjustment and colour of the line. This made our images stand out a lot more by highlighting them.





After changing the colour of each of our images, we played with the contrast to make our images stand out more. Then we added in some text, 'Chromeo', 'Neon Sun', our artist name and our album name. It took us some time to select a type of font that we really liked the look of and thought would work best with our whole concept and theme.

We did the same editing techniques on the back and the inside of our album cover. The reason why was because we wanted the theme and style of our pieces to be current throughout our digipack.

I wasn't present in the initial editing of our magazine advert therefore I'm not aware of the editing styles my group used.
