Print Productions Task 5: The Digipack
Task 5 is the task where you upload your final version of your digipack.
Ensure that these are uploaded as the largest file size and highest quality possible.
You may need to upload these as individual files and if so, please ensure that you do so and label the order of pages.
You MUST also explain your ideas and design choices and evaluate the process of designing this artwork before summing up how you feel about the final design.

Print Productions Task 2: Initial designs
Having identified and analysed at least 5 professionally produced CD covers, you should now be in a position to begin creating your own designs.
This task should be a good opportunity for you to begin developing ideas you have that will the basis for your final product. You should add onto your blog a range of hand-drawn designs that could be the basis for a final design. These designs should be varied and reflect the themes of your video and lyrics.
Each design should be accompanied by annotations and explanations that explain your ideas and design choices.
Your final method of presentation is up to you, for example scanning in and adding as attachments, creating a PPT with the designs and annotations or creating a Flickr slideshow.
