Cross Processing
For this idea I took inspiration from an image I found on Google (Left). I liked the idea of cross processing the images in the darkroom because it links back to how the darkroom is used and the use of a camera as a prop on the front cover. I decided these "prints" would be good for the contents page design. To create these images, firstly, I removed the border from the image on the left, leaving an empty area in the middle. Then I loaded the image that I wanted to Cross Process. Next I went to "Image" > "Adjustments" > "Curves". Here I selected "Cross Process" from the Presets, giving the image the effect I desired. This was then placed under the border from the previous image.
Stroke + Black & White
I decided that other featured bands should be presented in a different way, as if they were literally "popping out" of the page. To create this effect I simply changed the colour settings to black & white (Alt + Shift + Ctrl + B) and then removed the subjects from the background. Then in Layer Style I added a black coloured stroke around them, giving a border around the shape of their body. Then, to avoid confusion and to create a more aesthetic image, I added the names/logos of the artists onto the images.
