DVD+Cover+Project

Design and Create a DVD Cover 
 * 1) Find a DVD cover that you are going to **MODEL** yours after (you can use Google Images, Wikipedia, Internet Movie Database, etc.)
 * 2) The DVD cover can be for a movie, TV series, a story you make up, the story of your life, a video game made in to a movie, whatever you like....just make sure that you are picking a subject that will has a chance of being believable.
 * 3) Use your skills in Photoshop to manipulate images and create something colorful, creative, imaginative, believeable, etc.
 * 4) Open the file "dvd-cover-template.psd" in Photoshop and begin building upon it. This template will help you keep the correct dimensions of a DVD cover. When you open this file in Photoshop keep it at the very bottom of your layer palette, everything will build on top of it.
 * 5) Install the Photoshop brush set (dvd-symbols.abr) and use the brushes to make your DVD cover look more realisic. I will demonstrate to the class how to do this.
 * 6) As always, the most important thing is to use your imagination and be creative.

==**This is an activity to see how creative you can be.....NOT to see how well you place an existing cover in the template I provided. **== ==**You should be layering in different elements (images, text, etc.) NOT just using an exisiting peice and calling it done. **==
