CD Cover Draft

This is our first draft of a Cd cover design on photo shop. We have never really used photo shop so it was a challenge to produce an okay product. While spending an hour on this CD cover design we came across a few WWW's and EBI's.

WWW - The album name has a double meaning, for example we have called it the 'plain' wall as the picture is of Ryan against a plan wall, but he is also looking up at a 'plane' making it different with a twist

WWW - The font of the album name goes with the genre of grime, which we downloaded individually for this product

WWW - When picking the background colour we came across a tool that picks a colour from the picture and basically copies that exact colour/shade making it really effective

WWW - We played around with a load of tools and effects helping us broaden our knowledge of photo shop, ready for the next time we use it

WWW - The actual picture we chose really represented our genre, with the low angle making him look big and the grimy scenario, a rough plain area


EBI - If we had more time to complete this draft, I reckon the final product of it would look much ore better, as we didn't have enough time to experiment

EBI - It would have been better if we included the artists name underneath the album or on the plain wall because we forgot to insert that

EBI - It may appear a little tacky with the plane in the background, so next time we will keep it more simple, but with a lot more meaning

EBI - We should of thought about lighting more so we could of exaggerated his feelings/emotions, and by using high or low key lighting it makes overall look better

EBI - Finally, we have all come to the decision that we should of thought about the costume and how we want the actor to appear to the audience, in our case we want a smart, big looking man
