Pre-lim task Evaluation

This is my Preliminary front cover task. Overall I feel this is a bad attempt at the task and to using photoshop. However using this as a learning curve my skills and understanding of photoshop have improved greatly. The main problem with this image is that all of the proportions are out and I havn't considered the rule of thirds a great deal. The fonts do not work on a front cover, they don't achieve the effect of a front cover and I am sure they could have been chosen better. As a whole this does not work as a front cover and does not reflect some of my better work. However it was good to learn from this and develop my skills even more.
