After a having a look at a range of different photos, the decision was made to choose this picture. The side profile complements Alex's feature's and would look quite like a typical comic book angle.
Cropping the mixture to Digipak size was important also, as this is essential when constructing a typical Digipak frame.
Adding a speech bubble contributed to the pop-art/comic theme our music video was going for.
The "Spotify" and "intunes" images makes the overall look seem more realsitic and professional. By cutting out the image retrieved from Google, I managed to place them on top of the final image. However, as seen below, the icons was made smaller as it looked as if it was apart of the "Cool Kids" image - they're separate icons which are associated with the music industry.
The photoshop experience was new, however it was a learning process. Downloading the desired font which fit perfectly with our theme was worthwhile, although Photoshop has a number of fonts, we couldn't quite agree on what looked entirely right.
Adding a spotty filter, and using positurise the desired effect was created. Also, altering the colours achieve a not so overly bright look was important. We didn't want our Digipak to very pop as the genre is indie-pop - so a baby blue was the perfect mixture.
The background further emphasised the comical character Alex is trying to represent - she is an animated and enthusiastic character so the whole idea came together well.
