construction of the free posters section (not in cronological order)







i had quite alot of photographs to choose from to be my posters as i do live photoshoot for local bands in Cornwall. i choose a black and white image, colour image and another colour image.
screenshot 1: i added two of the three posters onto the front cover. you can also see that i have changed the slogan to something catchier and longer. i have also added lightning photoshop brushes to the strapline for added detail. i then used to text tool to add the headline and applied more photoshop brushes behind the headline to bring it out more. it was a misty type brush so its fairly unnoticeable but gives the effect i wanted. it's not in the center of the page because i didn't want the red in the font to interact with the red on his t-shirt i also could choose any other colour because it would have faded into the main image too much. i also added a pull quote from the 'so-called' article to make people want to read it.
screenshot 2: added an extra poster image. i made the poster images look like they were photos thrown onto the page for a more hand made feel to it.
