2. Before I could start designing my poster I took Polaroid photos of the main
actress. Once they developed, I scanned them into my laptop.
3. First I created my background using the gradient tool. I decided that I wanted a
linear fade because a black background would be too dark but a white
background would be too bright.
4. I then created new layers and inserted text in each one using the text tool. I
decided on a black font to make it stand out against the white. I also thought
that it would work quite well with the black fade effect.
5. To instert my polaroid pictures I
selected the ‘place’ option in the drop
down menu in files.
To stick to the colour scheme I made my
images black and white. I did this by clicking
‘convert to black and white’ in the enhance
drop down menu.
6. I had only taken a Polaroid picture of one eye, however, it didn’t look right to have
one eye on the poster. Therefore, I inserted the same photo of the eye and flipped it
to give the appearance that it’s the other eye.
