Digi-pack Back Cover

Contructing the back cover of the digi-pack:

1) Firstly, Charlotte took the image we had decided would work well on the back cover and edited it to make it match that on the front cover. We also moved it so only two thirds of the image can be seen. We thought this would be appropriate as the front cover also shows only a portion of the girl, while if it was in the middle of the page there would be no space for the songs to be written. From research we have seen that album covers include logos such as the 'vevo' and 'dolby' ones and so Charlotte inserted these onto the cover, along with a barcode.


2) We then decided song names as group, thinking of typical names that could easily be seen on a CD but that also linked well with the style of 'Elle'. For each song name it is numbered as #1, #2 etc. Charlotte planned the # which means number and we all agreed this was an interesting and effective way to present the songs.

3) Next we added information beneath the song names where it says contact information for the label, including a website and the twitter account of the artist, which is commonly seen on the back of albums. 

4) The space in the top right hand corner looked quite plain and empty and so we tried out a few ways to fill this space, including a sort of star shape as seen below. However, we felt this did not look very professional and so decided against it.
