Do's & Don't

The following points are to make sure I DO when making my digipak and advert:

• To use a clear font
• Use appropriate sizes for Images and Font
• Use clear photos that are in focus
• Use photos that are an approriate shape for the page
• Use a layout that follows the rule of thirds for composition
• Use an appropriate type face that follows Genre Conventions and A House Style
• To be aware of where I will place the font, it must follow Genre Conventions and to Be Clear From A Distance
• Follow the conventions of the 3 colour rule and use colour that is appropriate for Images, Font and Background
• Think carefully about how I will use and intergrate Font, Text, language and Image
• Use appropriate industry logos and conventions, properly positioned    Barcode Date Copyright Titles and Artist Name

IMPORTANTLY I SHOUDN'T :

• Stretch images, this will make them out of focus
• Use layer styles
• Use unnecessary effects. Any effects used MUST suit the genre
• Place text across the artist's face
• Use a font simply because you 'like it'
• Feel you need a seperate photo on every panel  BE CREATIVE
