Talk through on how I made my DVD Sleeve


In this blog I will be talking about how I created my DVD Sleeve. Before I started making my DVD Sleeve I took inspiration from my poster so some of the things from my poster I transferred into my DVD Sleeve by keeping my background the same. What I did with my Font on the top is I also kept that the same as well but made the fonts smaller on the top to make it look more like a DVD Sleeve With the Text on the side what I did was I wrote the text and made the text smaller than what it looks like on the top of the DVD Sleeve and rotated the text and positioned the text to where I wanted the text on my page. With the picture of me when I was creating this I looked at the official Assassins creed outfit and I decided that I was going to add the Assassins creed logo onto my outfit and I ddid this by getting the image off google images and took all the white background of the background of the image and then added it to the image but I had to put it behind the image so it was not showing at first then I viewed the image properly and I moved to a position to where I wanted the image on my outfit and made the logo a bit smaller in the process of putting the logo on my outfit. When I was making all the PEGI logos what I did was took all the backgrounds out of the image and then put them to wear I wanted the logos to go and I made them a bit smaller than what they look like on my poster. With the Blurb on the back of the DVD Sleeve I used the same one I used on my poster because my poster and my DVD Sleeve were linked together and I taken a lot of inspiration from my poster I also used the same slogan from my poster on my DVD Sleeve as well but made the slogan a  bit smaller because I had to fit more information on there as well. 

Talk Through on how I made my poster

This blog is going to be on how I created my poster. What I did when I was creating my poster is firstly what I did was research about my background that I could use and I found this on google Images. I used this background because I wanted to create a dark and spooky poster and I wanted to dim my character into the background. Then what I did was I took out a camera the camera I used the take my photo was a Cannon camera I also used the green screen and I chose to wear the Jumper and put my hood up so I could not show all my face and in the Assassins creed series the character never shows his face and I have taken that approach in making my poster. After this I put my picture into Photoshop and using the magic wand I used this to take away all the green screen and I then dragged my picture into the background and I changed the colour of my picture to go with the colour of my background. With the texts what I did with my text is I downloaded it of the Da Font website and the text then downloaded into photoshop. I used the text by using the text box and made my text look like the Assassins Creed series and thats where my inspiration came from with that. With my writing at the top I used the text that was already on photoshop instead of downloading it from Da Font with it being a slogan at the top I did this by just using the text box and once I had done this I made the text bold and this would make the slogan more eye catching to my audience. With the Warner Bros logo and my PEGI rating I got them of goggle images and went through the same process with my photo of me I got rid of the white background by using the magic wand and dragged them into the poster and made the smaller. This is how I made my poster and this is the process I went through making my poster and thought it was a big success.
