Completed CD art

I have finished my CD art!

I have created a CD insert, back cover and CD print, for my production. I have used a range of software, such as Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Publisher and Epson CD Printer. These programmes gave me the opportunity to produce the exact product I wanted. The overlap between all of them meant that I could create a synergy for the artwork. I was adamant that I would use the same font and colour throughout my Digi-pack, this is because I think that synergy is essential.

I wanted to create synergy between the main video and Digi-pack, this is why I wanted to include both narrative and band performance on the cover. This is different to a stereotypical Slipknot CD cover, but I felt that pushing boundaries will help me to create the best possible CD art.


The top two are my CD inserts, as you can see I used a mixture of band shots and narrative. I also included lyrics to the song, as I thought that this was important.


For my back cover, I decided to use a blank black background with the house font and colour. This was because I thought that it is stereotypical of this genre and will make it look authentic.
