Firstly what we had to do was find out the correct size of a CD album, the dimensions were 12 cm by 12 cm. Once we had found this information I had to change the dimensions of the document by 12x12. The following picture highlights how we did this:
Once that was done Michael went to take the photographs for the background of the album, this is the same background we have used on all four of the sides as you felt that the dance floor fitted the criteria for our particular CD album. Once that was done we uploaded the pictures from the still camera onto the apple Macs, the next stage included editing the pictures. This applied for every single photo that we took for the CD album.
- firstly we opened up the particular picture we wanted to use.
- secondly we used the magnetic lessee tool to cut the main picture out from the background.
- once that was done we had to copy and paste the picture onto the CD album and place it where it was positioned.
- the same process was taken for all photos.
After we had imported the pictures and edited them into the CD album we had to edit the text so the particular style that we felt best. The text we decided to use was 'Postmaster' this is the Saturday Night Fever text which we also used for the poster, I felt this felt really suited our CD album as it clearly relates to the Dancing images which are present on our album. We achieved this by using the blending options on the photo shop software, we used the stroke effect to give our text a radiant red outline which I believe helps emphasize the text so that the pictures do not over shadow the text. The following pictures shows this process:
The following is a short video highlighting how I edited the text of the CD album and imported the one of the pictures:
