Short Test
Brief
Country singer Willie
Nelson has asked you design the cover for his new album ‘Southern Heartbreak’. His record label
have provided you with some images that they would like you to use- you do not
have to use all of them- you may wish to only use one, it’s up to you.
Firstly you have 10 minutes to use the internet and research
country music cd front covers as well as collecting any font styles that you
may think you will use. After the 10 minutes of research you will have 40
minutes to complete the main part of the test which must be saved as a jpeg and
transfered to the pen drive that Craig has.
For this task you will need to;
·
Open a new document in Photoshop sized 120mm x
120mm, making sure the resolution is set at 300 pixels per inch.
·
Import and resize the images you wish to use.
·
Crop any parts of the image(s) that are not suitable.
·
Edit the colours of the image(s) to suit the
genre and your cd cover design.
·
Import some text either from Dafont or using
Photoshop’s text tool.
You will be marked on the use of design skills and awareness
of conventions of cd cover design.
The images you may use are below:
