When starting the DVD amaray case, I created the template by using guides and dragging them into position for the spine and the gutter; I created a canvas 279 x 189mm and set up for printing by selecting CMYK colours and 300dpi resolution. I used the following template for the correct sizes.
Ideally need to think about characters, themes, preliminary story and blurbs for the back cover. As well as the industry icons, a good start is to research industry standards for UK films and see what I can find....
I added several layers for the background of the spine and the back and front, as a base to start working on with the intention of changing these at a later stage, playing with the gradients or other techniques I pick up while progressing through the assignment.
I then added a text layer for the title along the spine and positioned this again for future updates once I had worked through the theme further. Lastly I added a small background of a city scape, I liked the photo and thought the cover needed more than just characters or blocks of colour as it adds a setting to the story.
Here's a look at it so far;
