I also used both Adobe Photoshop and inDesign in the creation of my Digipak, in order to achieve constantly edited images with well designed, compact and accurately aligned text. The first step was to edit each of the images singularly (one for each page of the side of the digipak). Similarly to how i edited the images of the adverts - using the Curves, Colour Balance and Exposure adjustment tools before adding a Dust and Scratch Layer to create a gritty effect.
After editing each of the images used for each side accordingly, I added all of the appropriate conventions within photoshop, such as a Bar code. Following this, I come to the third page, which would accommodate the disc. In order to replicate where the disc would be fitted, I used the shape tools within Photoshop to create a circular vector shape as can be seen below. I then compiled each of the edited images together in a grid format to clearly show how each side of the page would look alongside one another.
Finally, as aforementioned, I edited the text within Adobe inDesign to ensure that the text could be well aligned and accurately placed. I added the fonts LeviBrush and Baron Neue to the Typekit to ensure continuity, before adding the text to each page of the digipak. InDesign was particularly beneficial as it allowed me to easily warp text using a path shape around the inside of the disc.
