Question 1 Report
A youth theatre has commissioned a programme cover for its play, The Lantern Keeper. The cover document needs a title image that gives a dramatic night-time feel but remains readable when photocopied in greyscale. A folder includes a lantern photograph, a skyline image and a sketch of a circular moon. The director wants the lantern photograph cropped so that the lantern is the focus. The company name, Northgate Youth Theatre, must appear beneath the play title. Produce the title image for task A1 and keep a copy that can be used again in a presentation slide.
(a) Use the supplied lantern photograph to create a suitable title image. [2]
(b) Create text for the play title and company name that is clear against the image. [1]
(c) Save the finished image in a format suitable for later use in a presentation. [1]
Answer Details
(a) Crop the lantern photograph so that the lantern, rather than unnecessary surrounding material, is the main visual focus. Use a dark, night-time appearance appropriate to the dramatic play theme. Cropping is important because it directs attention to the intended subject. [2]
(b) Add both The Lantern Keeper and Northgate Youth Theatre. Use contrasting, readable text so it can still be read over the image and when photocopied in greyscale. [1]
(c) Save the completed title image as a suitable reusable image file, for example PNG or JPEG. These formats can be inserted into a presentation slide. [1]
