 This is the final digipak I made for our music promotional package. 

  I used a catchy line in the Instagram bio with the link to the music video, Instagram reels to boost engagement and a thematic grid to make the overall profile appear aesthetically pleasing.    I used story highlights to store the announcements for longer.   I used Instagram polls for increasing audience engagement.

But during the present, she appears forlorn, longing for her friend, even frustrated on her birthday at the idea of aging alone, and pushing the cupcake away. This also perfectly captures the stereotypical importance of friendship to teenagers, as teens are ass...

I used PREQUEL for color-grading of the digipak pictures, and I used CapCut for adding texts to the Digipak pictures. Then I uploaded these to my drive and downloaded them on my laptop and used Adobe Photoshop for making the final digipak. I downloaded a digipak template from Google.
