My Final Design

This is my final piece of my album. I have used a burst of bright, funky and saturated colours to grab people's attention. I initially wanted to use tonal, earthy and rather unsaturated colours at the beginning, but as the front cover consisted of lilacs and pinks, I felt the need to carry on the theme throughout the design. I used the theme of triangles throughout the design also because as I used triangles with the front cover, I felt it would look more professional and neat to carry on the triangular theme.

Experiments

Firstly I put my selected photo's into photoshop.

I then enlarged and adjusted them to the size i wanted.

I changed the brightness and opacity.

I added triangle shapes using the Polygonal Lasso Tool.

I added triangles below aswell.

I inserted an image and placed it in at the bottom.

I changed the effect to 'pin light'.

I added the same image again.

I created created a triangle and then filled it with the gradient tool to gain this effect.

I inserted my font i created and changed the threshold to make it stand out.

I then changed the colour to white.

I rubbed out any of the unwanted left overs so it looks more neat and professional, this is my final experiment piece.

Experiments

Experiments.

I duplicated loads of triangles and changed the: hue, saturation, lightness / darkness and colour.

I created the triangles by using the lasso tool and rotated them using command L.

Here, I am changing the hue / saturation.

I created this effect by downloading a texture offr th web and simply placing this onto photoshop.

Contact Sheet

I have gathered together a variety of photographs which have been chosen and reduced down to 6 possible ones to perhaps go onto my CD design. The photos shown circled in red are my chosen one's.
