This is how far I have got with my Digipak:

The bottom left hand picture used for the back cover of the digipak was planned, therefore fits perfectly and looks proffessional. I have taken the track names from "Made of Bricks" the real Kate Nash album, as it adds authenticity.

The bottom right hand picture is for the front cover, I planned it to be in the daytime to contrast the night time shot on the back. The text is the same as the back, with a larger siz for the artists name. I designed the front cover to really promote the artist. Big font on the artsits name, main shot of the artist herself. I also like the way the artist is looking into the distance, rather than directly addressing the audience.

The top right hand images are all of the artist with different facial expressions. I found this especially difficult to do, as all of the pictures had to be of a particular size and all fit together perfectly. To do this I used "free transform" to make sure each of the pictures were perfectly fitted to the template behind. This painstaking process did take a long long time, but I think it was worth it in the end. The inspiration for this idea of lots of different close ups partially came from the inside cover from Olly Murs debut album (see below)

The picture, or reel, shows the artist in different positions, to give the impression of the artist moving. I thought this was a very effective way of using still images on a digipak. which is why I decided to do a smiliar thing on mine, just with more images. I planned from the start to use the maximum amount of pictures possible in order to fill up the space, and really to promote the artist. It was also to show that the artist has lots of different aspects to her personality and that the songs on teh album are varied, throught the different facial expressions she pulls.
