Digital graphics production diary

I named my new photoshop file and then I chose the international paper preset. I then chose the A3 size option for my poster.

For my poster design I will be using strips of cyan,magenta, yellow and black for cymk. 

I am going to have two triangles on my corners of my poster for my design.

I then added in the rest of my colours. 

I used the Polygona lasso tool to draw all of my shapes and then I used the bucket tool to colour all of my images in.

I added in the subtitles for each section of my poster. I used the text box tool and made the text bold as well as increasing the size.

I took out the blue line that was running through the image and straightened out some of the lines

I put in my text in the poster using the text box. I then tilted the text box so it would fit in the individual sections.

I used this website to find out about resolution and why 300 dpi is the best resolution for a printed image. http://www.vsellis.com/understanding-dpi-resolution-and-print-vs-web-images/

I used this website to find out why jpeg is good for raster graphics. I then incorporated this information into my work.

This is my finished cymk poster for print.

I started to make my illustrator RGB poster. I started a new file and chose the A3 setting in the size tab

This is the start of my RGB poster I used the rectangle tool and used the colour tool. For red I turned green and blue to 0 and red to 100 and then did the same to get the others.

I put a line in the middle of my red box so that it could contain two different sections because there are four different sections and three boxes.

I used this image to demonstrate the three different colours that i was talking about in the paragraph.

I put text in by using the text box tool. I then made the text bigger.

I used this website to get some information on file formats for web images.

I used this image to show the viewer the difference between the two file formats.

I wrote about the optimum resolution for web images and included a picture. I got a picture from

This is my section where I talk about raster graphics. I put an image of a raster graphic image in the section.

I used some information from a wikipedia page.

I changed the text to white so it would easier to see and read. I did this by clicking on the text and then changing the colour in the pop art colour pallet. 

This is my finished illustrator poster.
