Giving Nik Software HDR efex Pro 2 a test run. I'm not big into HDR, but sometimes it's just kinda necessary (in small amounts). Now that I've got an awesome tripod of awesomeness, it's time I learned to embrace it.
Also thinking it might be time to leave my beloved CNX2. I love it. I wish they would upgrade it and fix all the problems with it and maybe give us a few more features, but it's been YEARS since NX2 was released, there's been no news from nik software of any intention of upgrading it, and their newest versions of the plug-ins aren't even compatible with NX..... sigh....
Testing CS6 with the nik software plug-ins now to see if I can make it close enough to NX2 to convince myself to make the switch.

Intro.
Back in the late 1980s, I trained in traditional graphic design while at college. When I said “traditional” I meant the old fashion way, using pens, pencils, craft knife, cutting mat, masking tapes, and working on paper, as opposite to digital graphic design which is done on computer. Starting from the middle 1990s, I got myself a Windows based PC, then bought a graphic design software, and started self-training.
Few years ago, I upgraded my computer (4th upgrade), and changed my graphic design software to Adobe brand. While I was a full-time single parent, I continue to keep my skills refreshed by doing my own graphic design projects, mainly to keep my portfolio updated in case I get a chance for an interview.
This is one of the graphic design project ideas I came up with in 2016. A DVD case cover and DVD Boxset based on a (non-existence) television series.
I came up with an idea of a detective/crime drama, centred on a leading female character, and using an eponymous title.
An eponymous title means of a person giving their name to something. For example, a character’s name, often just a single name, used as a title for a series. Examples…
Bergerac. British 1980s police detective series.
Castle. American 2010s crime/comedy series.
Lewis. British spin-off from Inspector Morse.
MacGyver. American 1980s television series.
Columbo. American 1970s-2000s detective series.
I used Kimberley which is a surname in the English language, and it is a variant of Kimberly. Point of note: It is also a given name as well as a surname. I used the variant Kimberley as a surname instead of the more common Kimberly as first name.
The idea of the plot is a single mother of two teenagers, juggling between her personal life at home and her job working for the police. The idea for the cover design is the leading character out and about, on her own, as if she’s lost in thoughts, possibility thinking of the police investigation and also of her personal problems.
How was that done?
I booked Lulu, a model based in Newport, Wales, United Kingdom, for an outdoors photo-shoot, as part of the graphic design project. When setting up the photo-shoot, I explained to Lulu what my project is about. It helps if I give her some background on what it is about, and explain to her what I want her to do, so that she would then know what kind of posing to do. She posed in different ways that are what I hoped for.

After getting the photos I needed, the next step was to find out the dimensions of a DVD case cover and a DVD Boxset case. Usually the case cover is much easier to work with, but the Boxset dimensions is bit tricky. When I’ve got the dimensions, I then started Adobe InDesign, set up a new spread,* and created the layout.
*We call it a spread, not a page.
For the case cover, the layout can fit on a single A4 spread. But for the box layout, it needed to be done on A3 spread. The case cover layout is often of the right dimensions on the first go (if you get it right the first time), but the box dimensions needs to be double-checked. This was done by printing out just the layout, cut it out, place it on a box, check if it fits or not. It was a simple case of adjust the layout’s dimensions in the software.
Then I imported the original photograph into Adobe Photoshop and saved it as a .PSD file, then imported the .PDS file into the main layout in the .INDD file. Next task was to simply just type the words on it, add any other graphics or other photographs, and make any adjustments to the objects.
The above image shows a screen capture of the completed layout design in the InDesign workspace, and the inset shows a photo of the finished work.
