Production of Main Task- Making the Music Poster

I used the program Photoshop on the macs to create the music poster.

Firstly I had to create a new document, the following picture highlights how it was done:










I started off with creating the background to the poster, this was done using the gradient tool, we choose two colours (blue and purple) and moved the mouse across the page to create the background we desired. The picture below shows how this was achieved:












Once that was done I uploaded the main picture for the poster, this was done by up uploading the picture then using the magnetic lasse tool. This removed the background which was not required. The following picture highlights the process:














Once the picture was cut out we had to copy and paste it onto the background of the poster.


The next step was to add the text to the poster, I had to simply press the text button and start to write the correct information where we deemed it was best to place it, the next picture shows how we achieved this:


















After that was completed we began to add different effects to the text (please note that the text used was the exact text used for Saturday night fever, it corresponds with the picture in the poster) you used many different affects, including the stroke and outer layer. The next picture shows how it was done:




































Once all of the text was completed, all we had to do was save the project.

The following it a short video, highlighting how I edited the text and how I edited the main picture for our poster:
