Broken Glass Effect Test

I found a video tutorial on how to do a shattered glass effect to use on 3 of the images that will be featured on my digipak. 

I decided to using the tutorial as guidance, i decided to attempt a test shot using a stock image of shattered glass and a close up shot of Matt Bellamy, the frontman from Muse

 These were the two images that I used and after following the video tutorial I realized that it is actually not that difficult to create the shattered glass effect.

 This is the end result of my test. In order for this to work properly when I take the pictures of my band members I will have to have the framing done so that they are to one side either the left or right so that I can cut each band member out and place them onto a black background then I can add the shattered glass effect and hopefully the end result will be something that looks pretty professional and good.

Album Cover Research

This is my powerpoint presentation on my Rock Album Covers research. In the presentation I looked at 3 different Rock Album Covers which are: Muse - Absolution, Foo Fighters - Wasting Light and Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon.
