Making The Back of the Digipak

For the back of our digipak, I picked this photo that I took during filming as I think that it signifies everything that our video is about: heartbreak and destruction.
I started by using the magic wand tool to cut away the background to the image, and then dropped the opacity of the remaining image to around 30%, so it was faded but still visible. I decided to use a black background to in keep with my previous work on the digipak and of course the magazine advert so there is a distinct brand style.

I then duplicated this image until the entire canvas was filled with torn up roses. The idea was to create 'a bed of roses', which signifies love but can also signify death, for example with the saying, 'you've made your bed now lie in it.'

I used the same font that I used for the front of the digpak and on the magazine advert to keep the distinct brand identity so it can run throughout our 3 pieces of work.

Finally in order to make this back panel look as professional as possible, I needed to add in a barcode and logo's of the contributors of the album, like the record company and the band themselves.
