Development Pt 12

Editing the Finals

There were no major changes made to the final pieces - resizing, turning up the vibrancy, and turning the saturation down granted the muted colours I was looking for without having to sacrifice any of the lighting tones I had worked so hard on. I then moved on to create page mockups while taking bleed lines and margins into consideration - this was very difficult for me as it is really the first time I've had to think about any of this, and it took a fair amount of time for me to get the lines right - but I eventually worked out what went where. I was able to use the actual text from the stories in my mockups as copyright no longer protects H.P. Lovecraft's work - his death in 1937 puts him past the 70 year limit. (I would still like to claim that only the images are my property.)

(Shown here are examples of my work with margins and parameters taken into consideration, with the blue line marking the actual page size)

All that remained from this point was to removed the guidelines and ensure that the images were below 5mb each to meet the submission requirements, and I was left with my final images ready to submit (example below).
