Inside of the album (Main)

Contrasted to our album front cover, we decided to make the inside of the Digipak light. We wanted to make this seem like a Bible with the dark colours on the outside and then the light colours on the inside.    We though that it would be a good idea because it gives a sense of enlightenment when you look into the Digipak like you do when you look into the Bible. The original image of the digipak had a lot of things going on in the picture. This was originally going to be the front cover of the album however we could not make the title work with it. We attempted 10 times with different methods, so we decided to make this the inside of the digipak. 

Digipak - Front Cover (Finished)

Reasons for using the colour scheme is because it is our dress code. It would be useful to have a black background with white writing because it stands out than if it was a white background on black writing.  I also wanted it to represent a Bible colour scheme as we are running with the religious theme. 

Using Photoshop for Digipak - CREATING THE FRONT COVER

The first thing i did was download the different brushes that would be needed in making this front cover.

The next step is opening photoshop and making the background black.

Using the brush tool, i browsed and then selected the cross brush preset that i had uploaded. I then placed the cross in the centre of the background.

The next thing i had to do is add text to this album cover. I used olde english font and wrote on the top and bottom of the cross. (ALBUM TITLE ON TOP, ARTIST ON BOTTOM)

The following steps was to add the band outlines to the cover. Again selecting the paint tool then the selected brush, i placed them in separate parts, creating a new layer for each one.
