Final CD Pack

When We Make it (Single)
feat. Bonus Music Video
Below are screen shots of my final CD pack:

CD Advert (HMV)

Here is the CD Advert I constructed for my CD single. I created it on Adobe In design and is a aim of what i would want the advert to look like when available to purchase. HMV is a popular company and i feel that they would be the best music store to make this single sell:

Final Image Tester (Part II)

(continued)

I decided to use a legible font for the titles to match the city location other than use the graffiti font. I put a subtle white glow stroke around it, to match the dream effect around the edges. I also put a parental advisory sign to warn the audiences listening. This made my final front cover image:

When creating the text inside the insert booklet, i used the same image but more zoomed in. I created black silhouettes around each artists, swapped the position of Phantom and Crucial around to make them focus on Krysis and left a little glow around each of them to make a spotlight like image. I then placed the lyrics on top in a clear readable font as this is typical in CD Singles:

I went through the same process as the front cover when making the back cover. However, I decided to make the back cover opposite to the front such that instead of the picture of the city, Using the polygon lasso tool, once again i removed the city section and replaced it with the urban environment. I place a layer of the urban landscape, emphasizing the link to the title 'When we make it'. This made it look like the artists' present and future success:

I then had to add the features of what songs were on the single. As it was a single not many track are put on it and therefore i only had three tracks. The main song, the instrumental version and the bonus music video feature. The font i used for the back was the same font as the one featured on the front however, i put a striking white stroke around it to give it a rough urban, graffiti effect. I added a barcode and the tabs on each side to fit into a CD case, which resulted to my cover below:

Final Image Testers

The final image was the one chosen previously.
I wanted to show a relation between the cover and the music video, therefore other then the relation in location within the video and image, I emphisised the title 'When we make it' by showing this in the cover.

Final Image Chosen:

 This was done by editing in Adobe Photoshop. Using the brick wall in the image I cut out sections of the bricks and replaced it with two contrasting locations, the city and the urban landscape. This shows the breakthrough for these artists. I intended these images to be at the front and the back highlighting the future (wealthy city) and the past (standard urban landscape)

Edited Image:

I created a range of layers that involved duplicating the original, i added shadows around each artist and a white glow around them to make a dream effect. Using the polygon lasso tool i cut around a random part of the bricks and replaced it with a city image as a layer below. To make the breaking wall a bit more realistic, i added a drop shadow at the edges and beavered it. I also added another below the city image with cracks. The layers i merged together created the picture above.

After my final image was edited i added the typography. I wanted to have the title in graffiti as it is a common font seen on hip hop albums so i went on www.graffiticreator.com I then added the title onto here and put a while glow around it. However, i wasn't too fond of the orange color so i decided to change it to another.

I changed the font color to blue as it matched the colors on the cover already.I gave it a white glow again. The font below of their names was a legible sophisticated writing. However, this was a font that was a download and the font wasn't avaliable on other computers i used therefore i tried to find something similar. I wasn't too fond of the graffiti writing either, i felt that it looked to animated and cartoonish and in comparison to the sophisticated font i felt it didn't suit. This meant i edited some more.

Marketing Aims

My marketing aims were to entice the audience of this genre by making the genre obvious through the composition of the album work. The target market was 16 +. Female and male.
It would be available on iTunes and in stores at the likes of HMV
Focusing on the main artist Krysis, its a start of profit point.
