Drafting & Planning: Final CD front and back cover.

At first I used Calibri, as this is the font my target audience chose, but while editing I decided to look up which font Placebo use in their logo. I found that  Helvetica Medium Condensed was used, so I changed the fonts to the closest thing in my page plus font bank; Helvetica.

Drafting & Planning: Draft magazine advertisement.


This is my first draft made on paint.net of my magazine advert. To do this, I created text boxes in Microsoft Publisher, then pasted the images into paint.net, as text is quite difficult to manipulate in paint.net. I plan to get some feedback from my target audience, then I will upload my final magazine advertisement.

Organisation: Construction.

Firstly, I added images in by 'inserting them from file.


I then added the text within Page Plus, did the same as above to add the bar code, and mimicked the text on Breaking Benjamin's Dark Before Dawn album for the record company information on the bottom of the CD


Lastly, I manipulated the colours of the second (back cover) image. I chose a light purple wash instead of grey or plain black, as using grey or black would have been too depressing with the ashtray and alcohol still there.
