Making a digi pack
1. We started creating the Digi-Pack by creating the text, we wanted the
digipack to match our poster, and so, used the same colour and font. It took us a while to colour in the text as we initially wanted to, with one
coloured text and a different coloured outline.
2. The second thing we did was to create the logo again to get the size right. we used the zoom tool on the software to be able to colour and shape the logo so that it looks correct.
3. We decided that the white background would be a little too plain to be our digipack cover. instead we opted for the lead singer of our band to be on the front cover behind the text. We thought the picture of Nick made the digipack cover look exciting and the mic stand incorporated that it was a music c.d.. also Nick's attire and the black and white effect gave the impression of a quite cool, rock c.d..
4. After placing the image on our digipack by simply dragging it and placing it to the back, we included a parental advisory label as we thought some songs may not be for minors.
5. We went on to design several pages for our digipack, including the back of it complete with song titles and a barcode. For the inside, we included pages with lyrics for each song, the same style and text throughout. We also had individual images of each band member in black and white, with a black border around each to give the album a cool look and to make the images standout.

Digi pack
To create out digi-pack, we decided to keep the same colour scheme and logo as the poster. This means that people who see the poster can find the product easily as they will recognize the style of it. We thought it was important to include stylish images of the band members and also the song lyrics, which is a key feature in most digi-packs and c.d.'s sold. The difficulties we came up with whilst creating the digi-pack was getting the sizes of the images equal. We used the size tool to make sure that each image was equal and that they all fitted on the digipack. We thought that style was importaint and it took us a while to be able to get the lyrics on without them looking messy or unprofessional.
