Below shows a time lapse of practicing my photoshop skills for designing a rough front cover for the digipak.
I used a photo of me that was taken at the shooting of the music video in the car park as a template, and I am planning on doing a further photoshoot to choose between a variety of photos for the final digipak.
I did this task in order to familiarise myself with photoshop, so that when I have the final images from the photoshoot, I can use photoshop with no hassle.
Because I wanted to play around with photoshop, I decided to play around with backgrounds. I have noticed that front covers for an indie pop artist can vary, with one convention being simplistic and the other convention being artsy. For example, Dua Lipa presents an artsy front cover, whereby BANKS presents a simplistic front cover.

I created two contrasting front covers to practice my photoshop skills, one being very simplistic with a simple black background, and the other having a tropical background, from an original image of standing in front of a brick wall.
