Ancillary Product photos


     














Original photos (back cover):

These photos are the originals taken for the back cover of the digipak. We decided to have one picture covering two panels on the back so that the photo continues on each panel. We took some panorama shots on an iPhone to see if they would work any better to go across more than one panel. 

Slightly Edited:



We have started to edit the photos here by putting on a higher contrast of colour. For both of us using Photoshop was a bit of a learning curve, because neither of us had used the programme in great detail before.

Original photos (second back cover):
This is the second idea we had for the back cover. We ended up going with this photo as it was the one the artist and ourselves preferred and decided to have it going across two of the outside panels.



This is the editing of the outside cover. (We had to change the dimensions of the photo so that it would fit onto a digipak.) We've changed the colour palette and contrast of colours to make it a bit more interesting than just the original photo.

Original album cover photo:

 Thanks to there being sun the day we filmed, we were able to do our silhouette idea and have Jack with his guitar facing the sun. This was the shot we got and were really pleased with it. We decided on this kind of shot, because it would represent Jack as a solo artist and show his genre. He doesn't use a lot of technology in his music so him being a part of nature in this photo shows that his music is natural.
This was how we first edited the photo, but we didn't really like the colours too much. However, we kept this as an option.



 This was the final edit of the front cover for the digipak before we added text. We also decided at this point to use it as the advert for the digipak as well. The colours for both the back and front cover of the digipak are very similar, as we felt that this way they would all link up and it would look a lot more professional.

Original inside photos:
  






These are just some of the original photos taken for the inside panels of the digipak. Again, we thought that we would take one photo of the guitar and have it going across all three of the inside panels. We chose the guitar, because we think it could be a good icon for Jack, especially with his type of music. 
(The edited version of this photo is too big a file to upload, but its the same one we used for the full digipak).
Considering this was our first time properly using Photoshop we are really pleased with the results of the images we got. Now we have to put them altogether to form the digipak which we will also be doing on Photoshop.
