Amaray Cover - Final Draft

I have completed the Amaray cover. It hasn't changed a lot, I have just finished off the legal box and images.
The legal box just needed some actual text as opposed to Lorem Ipsum, I just used a few of the example DVD's as a guide and . The text hight and width were adjusted so as to stand tall and thin as the text normally appears on the back of DVD's. The wrap effect was adjusted so I could get the DVD and Dolby Digital logos on there, as well as the logo I created for the production company, and simple text logo for the invented publisher.

A green colour overlay of the exact same green used in the video footage so far made. This is to give it a menacing virtual look.

I took 5 stills from the clips I am using for the video, adjusted any that had not been adjusted in teh video to fit with the grainy greenish effect. They are adjusted in size to fit in the already placed image boxes. One of the images is of the haunted girl in Paranormal Entity from the scene where she's in the attic.

I cut just the girl from the image using the lasso tool. Other selection tools can be a lot less work intensive than the lasso, however the image was already dark and grainy and any tool that looks for high contrast areas to auto select would not select the girl properly. The image was then placed over the front cover image and given a darker colour transparency, I experimented until I decided on 43% which looked the best.

The final version is pretty good, it might look like a striaght to DVD movie, but all the best horror moives are!
