Digipak (Inside)

Inspirational Image 

I found this image when I was on a social web. Before I saw this image, I was going to create a cosmic effect image what could relate to the name of our album 'Cosmic Love'. After I saw this image with this creative effect on, I was thinking combine both effects (cosmic effect and this effect). By the research of the tutorial of those two effect, I tried those tutorial with my photoshop skills, I realised that is not realistic for me to archive that stage at the moment. To solve this problem, I used some part of the tutorial of the effect.

                                                                  Original Photo shot
From amount of our photo shoot  we chose this one as the image what we are going to use inside the digipak. This image could represent a elegant star image from her costume, expression and body language.

 Fist of all, I removed background by using Eraser in Photoshop, left only Brante in the image.

 Than, I created five layers. On each layers I used different color of Brushes created the effect that looks similar to the image on the upper left conner. I changed the 'fill' on each layers to make a better image.  I did a lot research on the effect of the image on the upper left conner, but I haven't found any tutorial of the effect, so i had a look on other tutorial which a part of the tutorial have similar effect. After trying those effect, I found that the best way for me to create the effect is using the brushes.

So this is how it looks like.

I used a online photo edit web called 'Meituxiuxiu' which is a Chinese web. This website is like a easy photoshop for the people who want to edit their photo, people could use it to edit their photo. By using this, I lighten the image that I already have, then I add some stars effect on, because I think this could represent the cosmic.

 For another page of the digipak, I used the same gener as the one had Bronte on. I add some clouds and also a moon on, that could distinguish those pages.

For the middle of the inside of the digipak, where the disc are, I also used that image with no moon, no clouds and no Bronte on.

The color I used in the design of the digipak are in sharp contrast. The reason of this is I want to create a digipak that when people open it, they will surprised.
