After creating my final pages of my digipak there are a few things looking back that I feel I would do different with this task if I was to do it again.
My first improvement for the future if this task was done again would be to focus more on the photographs used. I feel in order to have produced more proffessional looking images my group member and I should have focused more on how we were positioning the actors in the photos and what they were doing in them. I have previously said that we had some trouble trying to get the actors to act professionally with these ancillary task photos which limited us to what kinds of photos we could take. Even though we were quite happy with how the 'not so serious' photos of the band made them look like they fit well together as a real band as it made them seem more down to earth which might have helped us target the audience better. Although I still feel it would have been more useful to get more photographs of the band looking a bit more serious and professional to make the whole digipak look more professional. Therefore in the future I would suggest that we took a lot more photos of our actors in order to ensure we have all of the types of images we need for our ancillary tasks.
Another improvement I would set myself for my digipak would be to be more experimental and creative with photoshop when creating each page of the ancillary task. Even though I like the black and white effect I have used for each part of my digipak I feel I could have experimented with more effects to see if they looked any better. I feel I could have manipulated the images more to make them look a bit more creative, however as my experience with photoshop is not great I might not have been able to make any other effects look as effective. Overall I am happy with how my digipak turned out but would set these as improvements with the future in order to make it even better second time round as I would have had better experience with creating a digipak.
