This is the finished back cover for our digipak. We used a shot from the recording session of Josh in the music booth for our back cover as it looked like a nice 'real' shot as opposed to all the posing in the other pictures. We decided to use the black paper on the wall as a background for our track list as it looked random when nothing was written on it, so we made good use of it. This worked out well as there was nowhere else we could have written the tracklist without using a different shot for our back cover. In the bottom right is the barcode. We believe this placement and size is accurate based on other albums and digipaks we have looked at. We put in the Atlantic Records logo next to this as we noticed label's logos often appear on the back cover of albums and digipaks as well. The website remained at the bottom in a font which fits in with the other white text and logos. This is followed by a copyright symbol which again adds a professional touch. Finally, we have inserted the Dolby Digital logo as we noticed that this appeared on the back cover of many CDs as well.
We used the magic wand tool on photoshop to get rid of the white part of the copyright logo and the black writing in the Atlantic Records logo as we felt that it looked better with these parts transparent. We also did this for the Dolby Digital logo as when we got it from Google images it was black writing on a white background, so we got rid of the background before inverting the colour to white as this goes better with the other writing on the back cover.
