Final piece

Final piece: creation process

Here is the process of how my final piece was created.

This is my scanned in drawing as I added a brightness and contrast level.

Curves added

Levels and curves added

Levels edited again

Starting to add text, I played around with colours and placements before I decided on where I would put it.

Copying and pasting feathers to create book flaps

The levels and exposure were edited

Creating the spine

I created my own logo for my own book publishing company

Levels and curves edited

Adding the logo to the spine

Adding the logo to the back of the book. I edited the levels of the blurb, as well as brightness and curves.

I added decorative lines to "trap" the text of the blurb

Added on the bottom

On one of the book flaps, I included information about the author... Me!

Starting to put everything together

Colour schemes

I tried and tested four different colour schemes here to see which would look best.

I drew out my design four times 

I began creating a palette for my analogus colour scheme

 

Finished piece

Final draft

Here is the final draft. It shows how I planned out the design roughly in pencil, and I included the spine and book flaps so that I knew how they would look when I created them. This was the draft I used throughout creating my piece, as I constantly referred to using it as my design.
