Final Advert And Digipak

This is my final digipak and advert, it took me a while to do but I'm quite impressed with the outcome considering the amount of time it took me to do it. Doing the cd took the most amount of time as there's loads of detailing on it and I had to photoshop the background of each logo and change the colour to a creamy yellow colour. It was hard to change the colour of some of the logo signs as it wasn't very clear while I was selecting the sections I wanted to paint. I wanted to keep the cd simple with the colours so i used black and cream as it ties in well with th images used.

Editing Process Of My Advert And Digipak

For my advert and digipak I used a YouTube video to create the effect I used for my images. The video helped guide me through each step as I wasn't quite sure how to do professional edit on photoshop. I first tried the edit on the digipak front cover image and thought it looked really good to I  applied the effect on all the other images I used to keep it consistent and flow well. I took screen shots of the process of me editing the images, I didn't do a screen shot of every step as there was quite a bit of steps to take and I didn't really remember. 

My Digipak CD and front cover mock

initially i didnt plan to have text all over the front cover of my digipak but for some reason Photoshop didn't let me colour in the font so I tried out to see how it will look with text all over it. I asked a few people what they thought and they actually liked it so I thought I might as well keep it like this as people like it.

Chosen Font

This is the chosen font I decided to use for my digipak and music advert. I got it from 1001 fonts just like other fonts we chose. Me and Julius didn't realise we had to do the digipak and advert separately, we shared ideas and come up with the name Vincent De La Reyes together so we both used the name as it wouldn't be fair if one of us used it and not the other. We changed the artist name to Vincent De La Reyes because we wasn't too sure if the name Julius had a flow to it or sounded professional and suitable for out music genre. 

Potential Font Designs

These were the fonts Julius and I were considering to use for our digipak that we got from 1001 fonts. We chose a different variety to see which one we prefered the most. I thought the first one was a bit too bold for a pop/rock albulm and the second looks more sutable for a classical album. Julius liked the third one quite a lot but I wasn't so sure as it looked a bit more fancy as I wanted to keep it simple. I did  a bit more research as I wasn't too sure on the font styles we found.
