Construction of Digi-pak- Front and Back panels

When constructing my front panel, I tried various different effects to see what looked good and worked well together. I knew I wanted to keep the same colour scheme that was used within my music video, these were red, white, black, and grey. I will be using Adobe Photoshop to create my products.

Below are a series of different print screens taken from Photoshop during the construction of my Digi-pak. 

Going back to my digi-pak research and analysis, I wanted to create an effect like keane's 'Perfect Symmetry' album. I started out by creating a simple triangle shape using the line tool in photoshop. I then had to merge the visible layers to make the shape connect together.

I then had to measure out the correct positions on where my lines would go. I did this by using a rular to make sure the spaces were the same. I then used the line tool again to create boxes.

The above print screen shows me dividing the boxes into two, to create triangles. I had to repeat this for every box.

After completing that, I had to 'merge visible' to make sure all the lines met each other to create one over all shape so I could then colour each individual triangle.

Above shows the layers merged together to create one shape then I tried various different colours within the triangles to see what worked best.

I knew I wanted to keep the same colour scheme, red, white, black, and grey as in my video to keep similarity. I tried various different ways to see what was more eye-catching.

This was my final choice of colours etc. I found this pattern and order of colours worked well together.

What I would like my Digi-Pak to look like

After I had researched ideas for my Digi-Pak, I created a draft copy of what I hope it would turn out like.

Below are some print screens:

This is the front cover of the digi-pak, I hope to keep the theme of my music video, therefore creating triangle shapes and having the same colour scheme of red, white and black. The center image will have the band and album name, it will be in a big font so it is first thing the audience will see.

The back panel of my digi-pak will be the list of the album songs. The top and bottom of this panel will have the same style as the front cover, triangles and the colour scheme, red, white and black. I will probably keep the same font style throughout the digi-pak to keep parity.

The CD will also continue the same style by almost being the same as the front panel of the digi-pak. The whole CD will have triangles on it with the same colour scheme used previously and the band and album name will be on the CD in the same font style. 

Throughout my six panels of my digi-pak, I will keep similarity by using the same font styles, colours and images from my music video. I feel that by using images from my music video, and keeping parity by using the same font, colour scheme and visual style will create a bold digi-pak which will promote the band successfully and will give impact and effectiveness.
