Today we are creating our portfolio introduction page with the concept of my project on Photoshop. I will begin by creating a blank canvas to work on. I did this by opening Photoshop I clicked in new file and this opened a dialog box. In the box I clicked on print in the top menu and chose A3. I then checked that the resolution was 300ppi, this creates a high quality resolution. I then chose the orientation as landscape as I am doing film and photos and these will be landscape. I then chose a custom background colour of slightly off white which I think will work for my portfolio page.
I then added an image from my desktop. By clicking on File and then Open, I then went to Select in the top menu and then Select All and then I went to Edit in the top menu and then copy. I then clicked back onto my canvas tab and then clicked on Edit and paste. I then clicked on the move tool at the top of the left hand menu and then I clicked on Show transform controls in the top menu. I then could move and enlarge image so that it worked on the page.
I then added my title, I clicked on the Text button in the left hand menu and then I clicked into the canvas. I then changed the font by clicking into fonts in the top menu. I used Bookman Old Style 60pt and then I added my own name underneath in smaller font of 30pts
I then created a logo of freelogodesign.com and used the brand name De Velde Productions and I liked the tagline of 'The All Seeing Eye' I then added this to Photoshop. I clicked on Open and then I repeated the steps I took for adding the image.
I then used the text tool to and clicked onto the canvas and changed the size to 24pts and kept the font the same. I then wrote my introduction to my project.
This still needs work but is a good practice for the portfolio concept.
