ALBUM COVER
Firstly, I created the front cover and back cover of my digipak. I used Photoshop to edit images that I had already taken for my digipak.

To edit all of the images in my digipak, I first used the Hue and Saturation editing tool on Photoshop in order to give them a different colour scheme. I wanted my photos to reflect the artist's visual aesthetic as well as the style of music, so I gave them a blue, turquoise, pink and purple colour scheme. I think that this appearance reflects the electronic elements of Halsey's music particularly well.
I then cropped the image into a square so that it would accurately reflect the shape of a real CD cover. For the front cover image, I simply added 'BADLANDS' and 'HALSEY' in the font Helvetica Bold in a light blue/turquoise colour. For the back cover image, I used the same photo, however, this time I used the smudge tool to get rid of the figure in the center of the image to ensure that it looked different from the front cover and allowed room for the track listing to be written over the top. I then added the track listing in the font Helvetica Bold Oblique, using the same colour for the text as I did on the front cover. I also added the legal information, a barcode, the record label's logo, and the artist's and label's respective websites.

Overall, I am really happy with the front and back cover designs for my digipak as I think that they represent the artist, her style of music and her aesthetic well.
