Assignment:

You need to design a Music Soundtrack  cover using Adobe Photoshop for the Movie Poster you created earlier. Your Music cover can be based off of an existing Music cover but design your own photos, title and song titles or create your own music cover totally from scratch. . Your Music-soundtrack cover must be school appropriate.

Save this document as: Soundtrack  Cover in the MAGAZINE Folder.

Your document  must have:

1. Document size 8.5 x 11
2. A background
3. A cover photo (may have smaller photos to show other artists included on the soundtrack)
4. A Title
5. All songs on the Movie Soundtrack
6. Issue date
7. Issue price
8. Barcode

Your Music-soundtrack cover will be graded on if you included the above elements and how you carry out Unity in your soundtrack cover.

_____Unity can be achieved by carrying out a common theme in the type styles, photos, story titles and descriptions. Do all the parts work together?

_____Think about readability, can you read the type against the background? Is the type style readable? Are the sentences too long? Are the titles descriptive enough to make you know what the article is about? Does the type size signify the importance?

_____Does the photo or photos support the theme? Does the photo catch your eye? Is it too busy or too simple?

_____How is your effort and craftsmanship? You will need to be selecting, cutting, pasting and cropping. Does your cover look professionally neat?

_____Layout, how did you arrange all the elements? Is the type all lined up flush left, right, centered? Is the type over the picture or a background?  Did you add a banner with the issue date,  web site, and cost? Does the layout make it easy to read or confusing?

You will create a “Movie Poster”.  We will do a drawing to select a movie and you will design a movie poster for that movie. Be creative with artwork, text, etc. don’t just copy and paste making it look just like the one you find on the internet. Layer 1 should be your Background layer** —This has to be your original background.  When deciding on your movie poster design, keep in mind these 5 elements:

• GENRE: Does your poster clue us in on whether the movie is scary, funny, action packed?
• TITLE: Is it unique, meaningful, and pertinent?
• TAGLINE:  AKA Slogan….make it short and sweet, yet powerful…
• TARGET AUDIENCE: Who is the specific group interested in watching this movie? What can you do in your poster to appeal them?
• IMAGE: Does you imagery tell a story?  Give us insight into what this movie is about!

I’ll be looking for the “COMPLETE PACKAGE” and grading you based on these elements. Poster must be school appropriate.

             Size:  24 x 36 inches with 300 dpi resolution
