Construction Diary (November 7th 2014)

Today I started planning my ancillary tasks. I though it would be easier to start with the poster as it is pretty simple to do. The first thing that I did was to write where everything was going to go on the page:

From this plan I started doing the first example of my poster, first of all I edited the picture that I was going to be using:

I first started by taking out the background of the image

I then played around with the color balance

After this I played around with the brightness and contrast in order to make the image look a bit darker

I then went around the edges and toned them with shadows in order to make the image blend in with the black background

I then went over the tone shadow with highlights to make the edges of the image even darker

 At the end of all of this is how my first example poster looked like once it was finished:

The picture on this poster is not the real picture that I am going to be using for my real one.

Next time I am going to carry on with making different examples of my poster using different pictures.
