Do's and Don't's of designing an ancillary product.

1. A quick summary of the
DO’s and DON’T’s of design
a production work…

2. Make sure you DO this:

Stick to 2 clear fonts as a maximum. Make sure they are
appropriate for your genre that you are following and be careful
with the sizing of your fonts.

Think about colours carefully and make sure they fit in with your
genre and pictures. Also stick to 3 colours as a maximum.

Use clear photos that are in focus. Make sure they are in
appropriate shot-size for pane and are appropriate for use.

Remember to use; barcode, date, copyright info, title of
album, artist/s name/s, company logo, website and artist/s
website.

And finally don’t forget to use the rule of third for composition

3. Make sure you DON’T do
this:

Use unnecessary effects. Don’t go mad using Photoshop

Stretch image to fit panel- if the image isn’t the right size them
trash it.

Put writing on the artist/s face

Use fonts just because you like them

Too many photos just to fill up spaces, feel the need to have photos
on every panel.

Not following the conventions of your genre
