Making the Cover of an EssayHere are a few ways to make the cover of an essay novel:
** 1. Creating using a mobile phone **
1. ** Preparing Work **
- Search for background images: You can search for "novel cover base image" on Petal Web. You can prioritize images that are marked "Follow and Commercial". Images that are not specifically marked as commercial can also be used.
- The programs used were: "Cut and Reflection"(used to make font, with many font types and rich effects) and "Love Pen and Painting"(used to set the size of the picture and add post-production light effects. It can also be replaced by an APP that can customize the canvas size and have independent layers).
2. ** Steps **
- Operation in the editing:
- He imported the selected base map, found the adjustment button in the tool bar, set the ratio to 3:4 (close to the ratio of the novel cover), and then adjusted the size of the image to the same size as the canvas (push and pull the image with two fingers).
- Enter text: click on the text button and then click on the new text to enter the title. If you want the text to have different sizes and styles, you need to enter the phrases separately. Choose the text layer, click the edit button, and then click the style to set the color and stroke. Choose a suitable font for the main character (such as burning handwriting), then click arrange to adjust the spacing and size of the words, and then click on the flower word to choose a beautiful style. If there was a gap under the text, he could find the picture-in-picture in the tool bar, add the picture-in-picture to the picture imported from the phone, remove the white background of the picture (through the Chroma Matting in the tool bar, click the Color picker to move the ring to the white area, click the intensity button to adjust the value until the white area disappears) and put it in the appropriate position. You can also adjust the style of the main character as needed. After entering the author's name and adjusting it to your satisfaction, you can export the video (which is actually still).
- He found the video in his phone's photo album and took a screenshot after playing it. He cut out the excess parts and only kept the cover image.
- Operation in Love Brush, Thoughts and Paintings:
- He opened Love Brush, Thought Painting, and clicked "Let's talk about it later" when he saw the update page. Then, he clicked on my gallery, clicked on the plus sign in the lower left corner, entered 600*800 in the custom size, and clicked OK to enter the editing interface.
- He clicked on the layer button at the bottom right corner, clicked on the camera icon to import the cover image, selected the middle button, zoomed the image to the canvas size with two fingers, and clicked on the green tick at the bottom right corner to cancel it when the prompt appeared.
- To add highlights to the picture: click the layer button again, click on the camera layer to add a highlight picture (don't adjust the size, just click on the green tick), then click on the layer button in the lower right corner, click on the white triangle next to the standard and choose "Screen" to hide the black part. He clicked on the top of the screen to return to the editing interface, clicked on the brush in the lower left corner, and clicked on the move button to adjust the highlight position. If necessary, you can copy the highlight layer (go back to the layer interface, make sure the highlight layer is selected, click the plus button on the left to select the clone layer), then adjust the location of the copied highlight layer, and finally save the image.
** 2. Create using Photoshopped (PC version)**
1. ** Preparing Work **
- Installs Photoshop.
2. ** Steps **
- Create a new file, set the file width to 600 px and height to 800 px, and click OK.
- Prepare a background image and drag it onto the new layer.
- Use the text tool to add the author's information.
- He clicked on 'Save As' and set the image format to JPEG.
** 3. Use editing or other similar editing software (computer version) to produce **
1. ** Preparing Work **
- Prepare materials: a base map (any nice background image you want), a picture-in-picture material (the background is best to be a solid color, and the contents of the picture are characters, items, special effects, etc.), and a highlight map (such as the sun, stars, etc., with the back being all black or all white).
2. ** Steps **
- He imported these three materials and placed the bottom map into the guide. He set the size to 3:4 (from top to bottom, the top would cover the bottom, and the bottom map would be covered the most).
- Place the picture-in-picture on top of the base map on the guide rail, and select picture-in-picture to perform the matting operation.(You can key in the upper right corner, click on the sword symbol on the right side of the color picker, and move the mouse to a circle on the picture. The black box in the middle of the circle is the color area you want to key out. You can choose Chromatic Matting, Smart Matching, or both. After obtaining the selected color area, increase the intensity to make the color area disappear and become transparent. If you choose Smart Matching here, you can directly key out the main content.) Put the figure in the middle of the background or at any random position.
- Word processing: click on the text in the upper left corner, click on the plus sign to add text, adjust the position in the upper right corner and enter the text you want, then allocate the color, bubbles, flower words, etc.
- [Highlight processing: In the top right corner of the basic column, tick the left side of the blend. Choose the blend mode to brighten, and choose 100% Opacity. Place the highlight image in a good position.] Finally, it could be used after a full-screen screenshot was played and checked.
