I have created my first draft for my front cover. This is it:
In creating this, I used the image that I felt was the strongest. Though the facial expression was less invitational and more super-smiler, I still feel that it is a hybrid of both as Toni is giving invitational vibes. I have edited them image so that the masthead went behind her head. I did this by using the magnetic lasso tool to cut out the head and then move it to an upper layer. One detail that I added was the masthead was partially visible through the veil as I felt that this showed I was confident with my editing skills. I created this effect by using a brush with a lowered opacity. I placed the text that I had planned to around my model - though I have not yet put in the text. Something I will need to consider when drafting up my next draft is whether the fonts will need to be made smaller. The text fits well over my image and is still readable. This was something I worried about as I was not sure if I'd have to edit the image or change the colour of the text to make it stand out more.
Overall, I like this draft and I feel that I have made a good start with my construction.
