Creating the new disc art

The stages of creation for our disc, from importing a blank CD template into photoshop to this the image below, were exactly the same as seen on the creation of the magazines poster. As they were produced using exactly the same methods and tools. However the disc has one further stage that was not on the poster.


We wanted to add a burnt effect to the disc to link into our video's style. To make the image look like it could burn, we overlayed the below image of paper texture:


Then, we used the eraser tool to rub out parts of the cd, and these bits would be the bits that had been burned away.


Next, I used the paint brush tool to paint the edges of the burn area a darker brown, and then used an innerglow by clicking layer>layer style>innerglow. This effect would be made dark and would make the rubbed out edges look as if they had been burned. This prodiced the final result below:
