The document describes a student's process for creating a draft poster advertising Bethesda games. The student replaced letters in the word "Bethesda" with logos from games like Doom, Brink, and Rage. In reflections, the student notes which elements will carry over to the final poster, including the large Bethesda logo, game images, and overall layout. The student also plans improvements like using the magic wand tool instead of pen to cut out images, replacing some game images, and adjusting the background color and logo placement.

2. Process
• I am starting my poster and I have named the
poster “Draft poster” as its my practice poster
before I start on the real thing. I have used the
default Photoshop size and I’m using the default
measurements to complete my poster.

3. This shows that I have started work on my poster
by removing the main letters that I want to change
to a different design of that letter. I will keep the
same letter but will change it to the design of the
game that I am advertising. I have shown this like
that because its representing what I’m about to do
to the image shown and hopefully change the
letters so they successfully look good and fit the
image

4. This shows that I have expanded my
poster to that of adding my first game. I
have changed the letters to that of the
game “Doom”. Showing that doom is a
Bethesda game. I did this by getting the
Doom image off the internet and using
Photoshop I cut each individual image
out, so I could freely move each letter
around where I wanted. With that I
positioned them In a vertical fashion,
replacing the D with the new Doom D
which is clearly shown in the image.

5. This next image shows that I have added
another game into the Bethesda game logo,
this time I have added “Brink”. To do this I
found the image off the internet and cut out
each word via layer via copy, once I’d cut
each letter out I then positioned each letter
in the place I desired and I created what I
needed to for the letter B. As shown I
replaced the letter B with the game’s B to
make the logo of Bethesda look more unique
and interesting.

6. This shows I have started on my third game by
introducing the new E. The game I will be
introducing is “Rage”. I will then copy the
procedure from the past few slides in order to get
it the same as them. The image shows that I have
changed the standard Bethesda E and replaced it
with the game design one as it fits my theme.

7. This last screenshot shows my final
draft design. It shows how I’ve
conveyed my design and what parts I
have photoshopped in order for it to be
like it is. Like the others I repeated the
strategy to broadcast the design like it
is, also shown by the image I have
nearly converted all letters of the word
into games, but there is so much you
can do in such a limited space. Overall
though I am happy in the way that it
turned out, I will be making big
improvements on my poster because I
believe seem things should be changed,
but overall I’m happy with the way it
looks and the way it speaks to you,
from a gamers perspective.

8. Reflection
• What elements of your experiments will you
include in your final product?
• The elements I will include In my final product will probably be all of the ones I have used in my draft poster, because I
believe that they looked good and benefitted me in my draft, so they could easily help me in the final product. Like
mentioned in my draft outlook in the slide before, I will almost definitely change the design of my poster as my drafts design
wasn’t the best and when it comes to the final thing it will look miles better. I will also keep the huge logo of Bethesda in my
final product as that sums up my whole idea and what I’m actually doing my product on, its also crucial being there as that
fuels the other ideas I’m putting in. I will also include the games images that I put in the draft and probably even more game
images as like the Bethesda logo it makes the poster. I will also include the layout of how the poster looks as I believe this
best suites the style that I am conveying. I probably would change the location of where the games are located as they look
a bit cluttered and unorganised at the moment, which I don’t want to convey.
• On my final product I will use the magic wand tool to cut out a image instead of messily drawing it in with the pen tool. I will
use this because it is less messy and usually turns out a lot better than scribbling it in the background colour. I will also
change a few of the game images as I don’t personally think they look the best, I definitely believe there’s better ones than
the ones I chose. I will also perhaps change the look of the background as I do like the black shade but I think it could
perhaps be a bit lighter as it fits a lot better with the look the games I will be incorporating. Thinking about it I will also
change the position In which the Bethesda logo is based as I don’t think its best suited there, I think I could perhaps change
the location of it to perhaps the corner of the poster. Which would give me more room to get more games into the poster.
