Group 8: Advert Development

  • Today I made adjustments to my advert. After discussions with my teacher we decided there was too much going on in the advert and needed to make the text clearer and the main character more prominent.
  • Firstly I removed the large Bastille triangle as it covered too much space on the advert and removed attention from the focal point of the avert, the boy.
  • Then I used the Quick Selection tool to focus the boy on the horse on the carrousel and created a copy layer of this in front of the background to separate the two and redefined the edges so there was no background included. 
  • I then created another layer of the boy on the horse underneath the original and used the effect motion blur underneath making it look like the boy is moving around the carrousel and dragged the effect across to show from where he came from nudging the boy .
  • I then underwent desaturating the background and saturating the boy to make him more prominent in the advert and make the text clearer and a bigger part of the advert than the background as there was a lot going on that drew your attention to it rather than the focal points of the advert.

  1. well done Jacques, this is much better, the positioning of text needs a bit of refinement as it is a bit poster like at the moment, try the rule of thirds vertically and horizontally
