PHOTOSHOP

PROGRESSFIRST

SESSION

By using a website called Dafont, I am able to download the preferred font for my digi pack and poster, I have selected this font carefully and thought about the connotations that the font portrays.

DOWNLOADING THE FONT

The font type that I am using is ‘Excalibur Nouveau’, a 70s style font that relates to my original sketches the most out of any other fonts. I have decided that the font type will be used for all large text on both my digi pack and poster, to create a sense of continuity, which will enable my product to sell efficiently and successfully.

Original image …

Changing the size of the image…

This screen shot shows that I have resized the original image by making the dark space around the artist larger to make room for the font that I will place on the digi pack later. I have placed the artists name where I would initially prefer to have the text situated, I have done this to get used to the tools of photo shop, and also to visualise how my digi pack will look digitally.

I am going to copying this font into photo shop

to create the title for my CD front

cover

Choosing a pattern for

my font

End of first session… I am now at the point where I am starting to becoming familiar with the tools that I am using on photo shop, such as the wand tool and

the crop tool. In the next session I will be inputting the rest of the title text onto my front cover, and hopefully warping the text around the artist. As I have already planned in my sketches. I will be referring to

my sketches through out the process of making my digi pack in order to see what changes and alterations that I will be making, whilst also

referring to my inspiration images.
