CH - Digipack first image finalized


This is the final image for the front cover of my digipack. The original image is below. Using this image, I manipulated it in photoshop;
- Cropped the image to square, removing the left hand brick wall
- Turned the brightness and contrast up to nearly as high as possible. This created a posterized effect
- Manipulated the colour saturation to be slightly below original image. Coupled with the contrast/brightness settings, this gave an overall effect of old British television.
-Posted the word 'TECHNODANCEAPHOBIC' from the website http://www.dafont.com/ and manipulated it to fit the banner
- Created a black square to black out the characters eyes. This became an indexical sign of rebellion, authority.
Overall, I am very happy with the effects created here. The original image was promising but still not fitting the specifications, and after maybe an hour of photoshop time I was able to produce the image to the left. Rosie and Josh were both happy with this image also.
