Front cover, Picture was just of the lead singer and the
text was slanted across the top of the singer’s head. On my new front cover I changed the picture
to accommodate the whole band. The band are cut out with the lasso tool on
Photoshop. I used the rectangle tool in
order to get a white background on the front cover then used the colour overlay
in order to make the background look the whitest it can be. I also changed the
name of the album to make it sound better; I changed it from the Undercover
Martyn to Expensive Sound. This is because Expensive sound is one of the names
of the songs and I thought it sounded better to me. I changed the Font type to
Calibri because this is a simpler font and it is easier to read than the
slanted font over the artist.
Back, on my first draft the back cover was a black
background which I did using the rectangle tool on the back cover. I then used
text boxes in order to make the song names. On my new digipak I changed the
back cover to not have the numbers down the side and just have the names of the
songs; this makes it easier to read. I also took the ‘Small Ruin’ away from the
top of the list because people would already know the band is called that. The
back is now very simplistic like the rest of the digipak.
Tray disk, On the first tray disc I had one of the Small
Ruin logo’s. I changed this from the disc because it was just a bit too much
for the viewers to take so I changed it to a plain white background using the
rectangle tool. On top of the white background I had the address to the
Facebook, Twitter and online pages.
On the extra panel, I had that the it was the Small Ruin
debut album. I also had a few reviews from people and magazines in music. On
the new digipak I scrapped the extra panel and just had four panels.
Inside left, On the inside left of my old digipak I had the
name of the Band and the names of all the band members. Also I had a message
from the band, I decided to take these off because the message was a bit
‘cringy’ and wasn’t needed. This is one of the sides that I took off because of
the needlessness of the panel.
Inside Centre, On the inside centre of my old digipak there
was a picture of the band. I decided to take this out on my new digipak because
of the picture of the whole band being on the front cover.
