This is my logo, this is for a school program called Craig's school of horror.

I believe my logo is the perfect design for my program.

The program is to do with a school that slowly becomes an awfully violent school. A teacher called Craig starts to murder all the little children and put them in the school meals.

So therefore my logo is good for my program as it has for instance: a pencil which resembles the school part of the program and a knife which resembles the violence part of the program. Also the background colour is good as it kind of means blood and horror.

Crop tool on photoshop step by step

Step 1: Select the crop tool, which is the fifth one down on the left hand side image. There are grabbable corners on the image you want to crop.


Step 2: If you want, you can constrain your crop by clicking on the drop down menu in the options bar. You can create your own crop by doing this.


Step 3: Hit the tick button to apply. If you turn off delete cropped pixel in the options bar, photoshop keeps the trimmed areas as part of the document in case you want to bring them back in later.

Waterloo Road is obviously a rubbish school, because in the opening scene all the kids are up to all kinds of things. One boy smashes a window with a hockey stick, this connotes that he doesn't care about the school property. The teachers don't do anything about this, this connotes that that they just don't care. The teachers also set a bad impression on this students as they just smoke in the playground. The head teacher has obviously got very depressed about this school as he loses it and starts throwing all the books,paper and equipment out of the window.
