9. Producing the CD digipak and advert - Advert Progress

The advert probably took the longest time to edit due to the fact that I wanted it to look professional and aesthetically pleasing. The smoke/ fog effect took quite a while to get right because it could have been easily overdone with the amount I put on the advert. The key was to keep it minimal and simple, which was why I didn't use a lot of writing. I also made sure that I had the 'Available on iTunes' logo to inform the audience about where they can purchase the song.

9. Producing the CD digipak and advert - Back cover progress

For the back of the digipak, I managed to do a successful and effective cover for the album. It was again fairly simple and minimal. The right side consists of a large image of Nana and smoke covering him towards the bottom. I added the track list, barcode and record labels logos on the left side. Overall, I thought that it was a good back cover.

Using Adobe Photoshop, I edited the front cover of the digipak. I made Nana have a reflection of himself, implying that he is analysing himself. I alded smoke around the front cover and then added the name of the song and the artists name. This was a quick and easy edit I made.

Discussion

Now that we have our images ready, we need to figure out who will do what. So Nana and I discussed that he would the the cover and that I would do the advertisement through Photoshop.
