Task 3 (Digital) Catalogue Process 7

This is the back cover of the catalogue. I created it on photoshop. The concept is basically the background from the cover image so it still has a unity as 1 catalogue. I used dry brush to make this back cover.

Task 3 (Digital) Catalogue Process 6

This is the last section of the catalogue and it basically explains about using the color adjustments for the picture. I put some pictures showing the location of the color adjustments and it also a good trick in using this kind of adjustment because you can also adjust the color on the layer that you want but I figured if you already adjust it on a particular layer, you can't change it back, so by creating a new adjustment layer, you can delete it, edit it and change the position of the layer without ruining the original work.

This section explains about brush applications. I used different brushes for the hair and clothes so I explained it briefly how to use the brush. I also showed the brushes that I used in this picture so if anyone wants to try it, they can follow the instruction.

This section explains about the coloring method and how to lay out the layers properly to get a good outcome. Also in addition it explains about how to apply other brush application, starts from selecting the brush up to putting it in the brush library. Some photoshop techniques also included in this section such as how to use the eyedropper tool and color panel. Tips and tricks such as playing with brush size and opacity plays an important role in this stage so I included that too to the catalogue.

These are the next pages in the catalogue. Basically it explains about how to lay out the reference image, setting the brush, managing the layer and tracing the image with the brush. Also there are some tips just I mentioned before in my blog post that has been included in this catalogue. For the title and information, I gave a text box with a contrast color from either side of the page because these pages are going to be in the same section of the catalogue.

For the title, I decided to put the steps just to emphasize the role of every page because it's meant to be like a tutorial.

Task 3 (Digital) Catalogue Process 2

This is the close up look on the inside of the catalogue. For the title I wrote "Brush Technique - Digital Painting (Photoshop)" because it focuses mainly on the brush application and also some techniques in digital painting. Some information also going to be explaining about how to use photoshop for some people that unfamiliar with this program. On this page, I tried to explain the reason why I chose this technique and also the difference between photoshop and illustrator.

For the fonts, I chose Bauhaus 93 for the title and Century Gothic for the content because it's a basic font and it's easy to read. These fonts will be used throughout the catalogue. On the title, I gave a red strip to emphasize it and also it has a connection with the with the red blank page on the left hand side of this page.

Task 3 (Digital) Catalogue Process 1

This is the overview of my catalogue. I decided to put colored backgrounds rather than backgrounds with pictures because it will disturbed the information. I tried to put a background just like the back cover on every page of the catalogue but it looks messy and disturbing so finally I decided to put basic colors based on my cover image. I chose red, black, blue, white, and yellow.
