This is an rough copy our DVD cover which hasn't been finished yet, since we need add our own pictures but our DVD cover was made on Adobe Photoshop CS4 this consisted of measuring a dvd cover which came to 10.75 inches width and 7.25 inches height, we needed these measurements so our cover when printed would be exactly the same size. Within photoshop you can do anything and download many over tools for your needs such as i download some brushes, as you can see from the image below there are smudge marks in red and black they were a couple of the downloads and the big shoe step on the front cover i downloaded as a brush. By using these brushes you can place them wherever you like and change the colour etc.
On the other hand, by researching DVD covers for many films gave us inspiration and ideas for what may our colour scheme, layout, writing etc would be like, so we thought if our opening sequence is to do with dance (street and ballet) that we would focus more on street for the edgey side of it. Therefore we come up with the colour scheme of bright, warm colours such as yellow, red and orange we thought that this would make the DVD stand out from the crowd. Also we added various features such as our production name and website, age for the movie, bonus content, formation of DVD, slogan and most importantly the name on the film, but we do need to include our own images and a blurb ( this should be shown in our final cut section ). I also tried to use similar font throughtout such as the stencil writing for 'Kick' since this was a very bold, noticable font that fitted very well with the street idea.
Overall i am pleased with the outcome so far and cant wait to see how the DVD cover all turns out hopefully it is a more success than it is.
