Photo shoop

The DVD case label was made with the guide tool using the following dimensions 129mm x 184 mm for the page with a trim area of 3mm to prevent thin areas of white on the edge. For the spine 14mm x 184mm.

Today  was working on my DVD  case label using my friends pieces of art work to aid my project I edited it into the correct dimension added a bit of text. I inserted a gardient on one side and then to combine the other art work I used a a method of fadding called masking and used brush tool to control trasnparency of the image eventually comibining the two.

Research

4th october

 

Looking other reviewing sites for ideas on my project I used compatethemarket.com

Some of the ideas that correlated with mine:

• Minimalistic
• Contrasting colours
• Colour scheme
• Asthetically pleasing

Moving forwards

Today I did measurements for CD case and my CD all of which I put onto VLE afterwards.
Doing my meseaurments for my cover and label I used the guide line tools and a ruler- which shows up on the sides with figures just to confirm I had inserted the values correctly. On the top of photoshop there is a view button wich has a drop down bar inside I found new guides which allows you to insert specfic values to your guide lines providing a greater accuracy and saving time.

 This is the template for the cover of the case which I saved as a template because I inteneded on making more than one draft for my project.

 

This is a template of my CD label also saved as a template for future drafts.
