Album Art Exercise

Album Art Exercise

For this task I had to make an album cover using random images and text. This will help me in the future when it comes to making my actual album cover. This exercise is to show that I could manipulate an image in Photoshop in order to create an album cover.

A little inaccuracy-Album title
Image for album:

First of all I had to open the image up into photoshop and then decide what to do with it, first of all I decided to add on the filter "Sumi-e". I chose this filter as it made the image look slightly blurred and made the contrast of the image greater, I also had to remove the writing in the corner of the image, I did this by going over it with the paint tool.

I then had to desaturate the image, because I felt that this would make the image look better than it already did for the album cover.

Now that I had done this I felt that I needed to find a suitable font to go with the image, so I decided to go onto Dafont to find a font for the image. I ended up finding the font "scorchflash" and inserted that with the text that I found earlier.

Here is the finished image with the text included.
