Since we used an image of the 'Commodore 64' laptop on our cover, we thought about designing the inserts around that theme too. So we found a game called 'Chuckie egg' for that platform and took a screenshot, we're then going to alter the screenshot to include little pixel daft punks instead to make it personal to the album. I'm going to design the pixels on a program I have called 'Pixen' which is specially designed for pixel art and is very easy to use. We are going to do the same with other game screenshots from the commodore and add in funny little pixel daft punks and intertextual references to their other videos to fill up the extra inserts.
Due to some issues with photoshop crashing all the time, I couldn't tweak the front cover to my liking so some of the edges are a little bit rough, however, once scaled down, you can hardly notice it at all. Our teacher reminded us that we also had to do the spine for the digipak also so that's a little more work I have to do this evening before our new deadline of tomorrow, as we're not in school on deadline day.
On top of finishing the digipak, I have to write up the evaluation for the blog as well! Looks like it's going to be a late night...
