PicMonkey Software• We used this software to explore the editing possibilities of our

portrait picture.

Exploration of features #1 - Crop• We explored the crop tool to change the size of our image, so that we

could get rid of the sides of the performer.

different tints and styles for our image.

Exploration of features #4 – Blemish Remover• We explored this feature as it enabled us to remove any skin

blemishes or marks which made the artist look better and more professional.

Exploration of features #5 – Airbrush• We explored this feature and made the complexion of the artist much

smoother, however, we used to tool too much and it caused a blurring of the skin.

Exploration of features #6 – Wrinkle Remover• We explored this feature to help remove any wrinkles or skin lines the

artist may have in order to make them look more professional.

Exploration of features #7 – Color Skin/Effects• We explored this feature to experiment with different color styles and

corrections to help gain ideas for a certain digipak style.

Exploration of features #8 – Borders• We explored this feature to play around with different image borders

that we could incorporate within our digipak.

Exploration of features #9 – Bokeh Effect• We explored this effect to try and play around with a ‘DSLR’ look to

the image, as well as make the image more stylistic.

Exploration of features #1 – Text • We used the text feature to experiment with different text over the

image, something that we will need to utilise within our digipak.

Exploration of features #2 – Draw tool• We used the text feature to experiment with the possibility of drawing

on the image to create a unique style, but we found that making an effective drawing would be very difficult.

What did we learn?• Firstly, we learned that the use of colour correcting and colour effects

are essential to a well-edited image, as they make the picture more eye-catching and vibrant.

• Secondly, we learned that we will need to utilise the text feature for our digipack as the artwork will need to display important information such as the release date and artist credentials.

• Thirdly, we learned that the use of stylistic effects can make the image much more intriguing and professional looking, as shown by our use of the bokeh effect.

• Lastly, we importantly found that the use of a drawing tool would prove to be very difficult as we may lack the ability to create a professional looking drawing over the image, so we will stay away from this in our final digipack.
