Above is a screenshot of early stage in my print development. I used several techniques to achieve this and will continue to work on top of what I have so far to improve it.
- Firstly I found a suitable background and made that my first layer. I then got a picture of what almost looks like grass and removed the background from it using the magic wand tool. I then halved the picture using the rectangluar marquee tool and then cut and paste and placed the top half at the bottom of the advert and the bottom half at the top of the advert to create an effective header and footer.
- I then added text. However, rather than using the text tool (due to the fact that Adobe Photoshop did not have the font I needed), I found the text on a website and wrote out the words I wanted and then copied and pasted it into photoshop as a picture. I then used the transform tool whilst holding down shift in order to keep the correct shape of the text but to change the size to give a bit of variety in the advert.
- The text then didn't stand out very much so I decided to use the brush tool to create a blurry outline of each letter to ensure the poster is eye-catching and visually exciting.
