DVD Inlay Final Version

Hi, as you can probably guess this post will be very similar to the last one but this time I'll talk about my DVD inlay.

Since my previous update there have been many new features added to the design all of which are easily noticeable. Firstly, I've added the bitmap PS2 label at the bottom of the DVD as all PS2 discs have this format and so my disc will now look more authentic and become easily recognizable as everyone will know what type of disc is it. I've also enhanced the background bitmap image using the brush tool to cover up any imperfections and make some things stand out more.

Another feature I've added is the legal info at the bottom and around the disc. To do this I've used multiple variations of the type tool. The text at the bottom is in fact inside a shape of my choice while the text around the disc is actually surrounding the edge of a completely transparent circle since the tool would not allow me to use guides for this method.

The contents of the legal info are based on another PS2 disc I own as to ensure that it will be as accurate as it can be. Also I've modified the background image itself using brush tool as some of it didn't look good and so I covered those bits using the same colours present making this 'masking' as least noticeable as possible. This gives a nice effect of reality and fiction mixing together.

Lastly, I've created my company logo using pen tool and the brush tool while placing in along with other bitmap logos on my disc which I've used in creation of my case wrap so that both the case wrap and DVD inlay look consistent and more professional.

At this stage, personally I'm satisfied with what I've produced as everything fits together nicely, presenting a Japan-themed disc for a PS2 game which matches the case wrap making the elements consistent and so more professional. If I had to do another similar assignment, I would create a disc for a game but using more detailed images as the background. Also I would change the layout of my logos as well as the text and disc's colour scheme. Next time I would spend more time on my vector-based logos, making them more detailed and less time on finding the images as once again I was very picky and slow with it. 

Note: The font present is different to the one I'm using. That's because I don't have the required font at home but the original font is there.
