Design board creation

This week I started the creation of my design boards for my project. To do that, I used photoshop.

the first step was to choose my background picture. I went on unsplashe which a site for free images.

I chose this image because it is simple and goes along with the colours on my outcomes. After that, I opened Photoshop and created a new file by clicking on " New file" and select an A3 size that I put in landscape mode.

The next step was to import the picture I downloaded from unsolash to photoshop and to do that I clicked on file > open > on your computer and chose the image.

After that I imported my logo that I created on "logo for free" and positioned it in the bottom right corner of the page, then I clicked on commit > remove background to match the logo to the rest on image.

Then I clicked on the "T" on the tool bar on the left side of the screen to add the name of my project and the title of the design board.

I then uploaded my concept image by following the same steps I took when uploading my background image. I cropped my image to give it the right size and used the select tool to positioned the image where I wanted it to be.

To finalise the design board I added my text with the writing tool and chose the size of the text to be 8pt

I followed the same steps for the rest of the boards which are here:
