working on the album covers...

Back cover comparison

Work on the album covers continues with the editing of the back digipak cover. I was uncertain of my current digipak design for the back cover, so I created another one with the same image but more photoshop editing on it. In the original picture, I can be seen shooting my model on the left hand side. I overcame this problem as I managed to fit the image without showing the section in which I could be seen. However, this meant I was restricted with the amount of image I was able to show, due to the fact that I can be seen in part of it. Thus, I decided I would attempt another version of the back cover, this time with myself digitally removed. I tried various methods of attempting to remove myself, from cutting round my form and removing it, to attempting to erase it with the background eraser. In the end, I was able to combine the eraser tools and the spot-removal tool to smooth over the area I had once occupied. Despite these efforts, I am still uncertain as to which cover I prefer.
