Making a CD cover - YouTube tutorial.

In preparation for making our own CD covers, we were advised that we should look up tutorials for the processes of making a CD cover on photoshop. This is one I found on YouTube. I tried to find a tutorial that accommodated our genre within the tutorial, and this was the best one I could find. By the looks of it, the chosen band are of the rock/metal genre, which is close enough for me.
I found this tutorial fairly useful. Firstly, I felt that by making the dimensions of the CD cover clear first off was very helpful. This tutorial also introduced me to many aspects of photoshop that I was previously unaware of, such as text effects - this is something that we could perhaps incorporate into our own design and CD cover.
As we will be including logos and several images in our own CD cover, the way in which this tutorial helped to clarify how to import and edit separate layers and images was significant and useful in relation to our own project.
