Digipak Creation - Back Draft

This is the original picture without any filters. I chose this picture mainly because I wanted the star image looking into the horizon to give that feeling of him having deep thoughts and wonder. Which makes him look like a serious artists and further relate to the genre. Additionally,the space on the right is where I could place the texts and other components such as barcodes and logos.


I didn't want to go the typical filter: Sepia. Instead, I used the Colour Balance to change the mood of the picture - I altered the picture by adjusting the Luminance, Colour Intensity and Fade on both Midtones and Highlights and in result created a rather vintage look. I thought the filter suits the environment as well as the style of the genre. It also compliments the background and my costume.

I further altered the filter by adding in more modifications. I changed the Shadows of the current filter and adjusted the colours to make it slightly moody then before. Making the vintage look stronger than before which makes it such an improvement. I also ticked the "Preserve Luminosity" to make the picture highlighted.

This is the final outcome of the first draft - the only improvements that I need to make is to rearrange fonts and add in the barcodes and other texts.
