Editing Process - Digipak and Advert

Software
To create the Digipak and Advert I used a piece of software called Adobe Photoshop CS4. This is an graphic manipulation software and has all the tools that is needed to create the ancillary products.

Paper Texture
Firstly I used a paper texture and added a sepia tone to it so that it would old and faded to add to the theme of the product.

The photos
The photos are an important part of the digipak and advert and to make them blend with the theme I adjusted the colour curves and the hue and saturation of them.

The Title
The logo of the band needed to fit with the colour scheme of the digipak and advert so by using layer -> blending options I added a gradient to it.

The CD's
To create the cd's we took the sizing from an online template and then cut out the area and added an image onto the the cd's.
For the album disc we added a craquelure effect to it which made the cd look more rugged and worn out which is the theme of the products.

The Advert Gradient
To make the the paper texture blend into the photo on the advert just like the flatplans that we created we used a vector layer and added a gradient effect to it which made the paper texture and the photo layers blend together.

The Logos
To make the logos look unlike the original ones we use blending options to edit the transparency and the way that the logos interacted with layer underneath which gave us a worn out look.
