Final Digipak
I thought this was complete until I showed it to my class mate who said "The middle page of the inside of the digipak works well with the circle of the hat representing the space where the circle shaped CD should go, but the colours of the bricks dont match those on the two pages either side."
So I edited the saturation and brightness of the background layer of the photo using Photoshop and ended with something that looked a lot better.
Results From Vote
Considering the votes came in as even and all voters gave valid reasons for their choice, I decided to combine both to get the perfect product.
I took the photo from my second idea as it allowed me more space underneath her face than the first photo and then I put the lettering in the layout from my first idea on top of it. It meant I could do the repeated line shape at the bottom of the image rather than having one banner which looked too random to me, but now I can incorperate the layout I wanted and the banner by simply changing the photo. I think I should have planned for this by taking my photos further away to plan to crop once the image was in InDesign rather than trying to get the photos perfectly framed because ideas can change and things might not work out how you wanted them to

FOR THE ATTENTION OF POP FANS
After a lot of fiddling and manipulating I have managed to create two different choices for my digipak. Although they arent dramatically different, I am struggling to decide which looks most effective and professional.
Where my first idea's downfall was the lack of space for the album title due to the positioning that I wanted the artists name to be in, leaving it in a banner at the bottom which left me thinking that it framed the photo wrong, I much prefered the placing of the letters to how the second was layed out.
