Last Screen Shoot Of Digipak In Lesson


Here is just my last screen shot of me opening my new images on photoshop elements for my digitak in the last lesson of media till the new year.

Inside of Digipak so far...


Photoshop for the first time

In lesson today it was very confusing, this is only the second time I have ever used Photoshop properly, I found it difficult to get pictures on and in the right place with out stretching them.  I found it really difficult trying to figure out where things were, as I am used old Photoshop.
Regardless I managed to do the inside panels, I've used two images so far, but this may change, I may take the one I used away.  I wrote down my song listings, and drew out a CD spacing on the right panel.  However my digipak looks a bit plain at the moment and I plan on doing a lot more work on it when we carry on with them.

Digipak so far

I didn't complete much this lesson, but I have made a start on the inside panel.

Potential Photo's for My DigiPak





















 
So as you can see I have a lot of potential photo's that I could use for my digipak. When it comes to deciding what images to use for my digipak I will base it all on what images I think wil suit the genre of the music. What I have already decided on is that I am only going to use a maximum of two images for my digipak, as I dont want the digipak to be over loaded with images.
