For the two inside pages Sam decided to use both pages at once by stretching the image we used over the double page spread. He chose to use a picture of corfe castle that I took on location. The framing of the picture was perfect because of how the castle is almost entirely on the right side of the image with the left edge being predominantly sky. We could use this large part of sky to list the songs of the album etc...
Me and Jack took it in turns to assist Sam with separating the background and the castle using the magic wand tool. I worked on the larger areas and Jack finished the process by checking all of the fine details. Once the sky and castle were on different layers we replaced the sky with one from google images that wasn't copyrighted. We replaced the original sky because of how the clouds would have made the writing hard to read however the new sky image has only blue sky on the left hand side of the picture, meaning all of the text will be clearly visible.
In order to have continuity throughout the digipak we decided to use the same effect all the way through. To this end we used the Fresco effect for the castle itself and Crystallize for the sky. However, this time we wanted the sky to be more clear than the front cover so we reduced the cell size of the Crystallize effect.
