Creating the back cover for digipak


I have chosen to use this image of my artist for the back cover as it is a full length picture, and whilst researching into other CD back covers, I noticed that medium close up shots and full length pictures are often used. Also, I think that having a body length picture will allow the audience to gather an idea of what type of artist/person he is through his clothing.

I realized that if I wanted to use this image, that I couldn't have the background in it so I used the magnetic lasso tool on Photoshop to cut around this image.

Because I had used Picmonkey to choose a background for my front cover, I had to use the website again to choose a background for the front cover. I wanted a background similar to my front page, one that would still give the cover a professorial and sophisticated look.
