Making the Digipak Disc

To make the digipak disc, Katie used the Adobe Photoshop software. This was simple and easy to use as this was the software used to last year for AS. This is the making of the disc:







This was the basic disc template used.










Katie then added the picture we wanted to the template design and cutted it to fit the disc.



She then changed the levels of the photo to give them both a tan and a brighter effect, which would stand out.





She then changed the levels of the picture, by moving the arrows at the bottom of the graph, to what fitted the photo




After discussions, me and katie both decided that the bright disc did not fit what we wanted, it was to bright and happy. In our video we have developed the idea of black and white scenes, we also wanted our ancillary task to convey this. Because of this Katie played around with the filters on Photoshop and choose the filter, 'note paper'.



She was able to decide how high or low i wanted the image balance, grainness and relief.


This is the final disc that was made:

  1. I like your cover disc design. I think it is cleaver bit of design to have the image leave a space in the middle for the hole for the CD. Are you sure you have all the text that would appear on a CD on your image. I would have thought there would be more text - especially going in a circular manner around the edge of the CD. But maybe I am wrong. what does your research reveal?
