Photoshop Ideas
Idea 1
Now, because I was creating the album covers, I wanted to create an album with my actual face on it, as it just seemed to make sense, and I also have an interest in making my own music. Most of the Photoshop ideas are based on a photo I have taken of my self specifically for the outcome. This was the first idea I came up with, it features a lure, and text organistation. This was one the simplest designs, although I do think that because of the way I sketched it, you don't really have any idea what the photo is, I fixed this in my later designs.
Idea 2
Here I have drawn out my pose that I am striking in the photo, I felt that this was more helpful than just writing "photo here", because it gave me more of a feel for what the cover would actually look like, in this design I am facing forward, creating a connection with the viewer, this design also features a lure. I'm not really keen on the text layout on this design, it is a little messy in my opinion.
Idea 3
This was one of the better designs I came up with in my opinion, because the pose is displayed simply but efficiently, and the text layout is also simple and effective, I really like this design and will probably be using it for my actual Photoshop mock-up, although that depends how the photo looks when put in an album cover layout in Photoshop.
Idea 4
This was the last design I did, I also like this one better than the others as again, it portrays the pose efficiently, and the text layout is simple and organised. This design also, like the two others, features a lure. I think when it comes to creating my outcome I will either be using this design or the one above it.
