We noticed that alot of CDs were pretty basic looking as they had just a simple pattern on instead of an image of the artist. With the use of just a simple pattern I was able to adapt it to look more interesting and futuristic.
Above is the original photograph I took for the CD. The photograph was of a shirt that was worn by one of the band members in the photoshoot for the album cover. By using the checked pattern again it linked the digipack altogether. Deciding to choose this coloured shirt instead of a red one made the CD look more feminine.
We had to use photoshop to edit the photograph as this is the best kind of software to use for this kind of editing. By using photoshop I was able to manipulate the photo how I liked.
On photoshop there was a setting that allowed you to alter the photo and manipulate it any way you like to.
After editing it, this is what it looked like. We made the colours look brighter and the contrast of the colourswas alot stronger. By making it look like this it now looks more futuristic and personally I think it is more appropriate looking for a pop girl band.
We had to make the image into a circle to make it look more like a CD. We thought that using paint was the best way to get what we wanted. Using the circle tool we draw around it making it into the shape we wanted. Using a thick circle tool made it easier for us to use.
Once we had drew the circle around the image we had to delete the outer bit. Using the rubber tool we were able to do this. It took us a long time but we managed to do it.
