In the new media era, which is dominated by electronic media, paper albums still have irreplaceable artistic charm and commercial value. Like a polished gemstone, the picture-like album is a clever combination of art and technology, through a complex but precise production process, to reveal itself to the world. So how was it made layer by layer?

The line draft design is the first step in the production of the album, which serves as the blueprint and guide for the album design. This step is critical, indicating the specifications of the album, layout, material selection and color scheme, which directly affect the quality and efficiency of the subsequent vector rendering, image editing, and typographic design.

Next is vector rendering, vector design software represented by Adobe Illustrator is widely used. The vector image uses descriptive data to represent the image, which is beneficial to lossless scaling, which not only ensures the printing quality of the picture album, but also provides great convenience for the design modification.

Image editing, such as Photoshop for fine image processing, layer manipulation, filter application, color adjustment, and so on, micro-carving of a picture. The fine adjustment of the image is a great stage for the album designers to show their professional skills.

And typography design can be said to be the most professional album design, but also the most test designer's vision, technique and artistic aesthetic link. This link needs to deal with the relationship between the copywriting and the image, to ensure the overall layout of the album harmonious, smooth. Efficient typographical design tools such as Indesign, with correct typographical parameters such as bleeding, network port, pot, etc., can help us effectively cope with the challenge of album design.

Then there is the calibration and proofing process, before the paper sample is produced, the production of the electronic sample is essential. In this stage, adjustment and calibration, including color calibration and layout adjustment, are performed to ensure the printing quality of the album.

The final printing process, while seemingly a transformation from an electronic manuscript to a paper book, is actually full of technical expertise and complex physical and chemical changes. Choosing the right printing pigments, the right printing paper, the precise printing equipment, these are the key to the quality of the album. In addition, for special effects such as UV, bronzing, silver, sanding, concave, local UV applications, is the only way to high-quality development of album design.

From wire to print,Picture AlbumDesign is not easy. Every step requires an artist's perceptiveness and craftsman's fine workmanship, and every step is filled with infinite knowledge. Therefore, when we look through a beautiful picture album, we can also feel the hard work and full of artistic enthusiasm, and this is exactly the designers painstakingly created that beauty!
