Draft Digipack #2

Draft Digipack #1

This is the first Digipack that I have created for the album. I have been researching and downloading countless photos of the factory, Andy, and Edie and one image that I found of Andy that stands out alot to me is the one I have chosen to put on the cover here. I am really fascinated with how the multiple images of Andy's face have been layered together with the transparency lowered and I think that this is something I could easily do with shots of Rickie's face. I adjusted the curves of the image and exposure etc before adding a render filter of 'lens flare' , using two of the different lens flare types to give it this look. I think that the lens flare is relevant to the concept and has a reference to the art 'look' of warhol, relating to his films and photographs.

I then inverted the image and placed it on the inside left page. The inside right is an edited image of David Bailey in his studio, which is something I could include of Rickie and the girls on the shoot, taking movie stills perhaps.

The back cover of the Digipack is the same colour palette as the front, although I placed the image of andy side-on and reduced the transparency to 6% so that the image is slightly seen only.

I added the barcode and compact disk logo to add believability and added the album tracks on the back.

I think that by using the image of Andy three times, changing the way the image is portrayed adds continuity and almost relates to how Andy repeated silkscreen photographs of his 'superstars'.
