Photoshop Postcards

For this brief we had to make 10 double sided postcards using Adobe Photoshop and saving them as PDF files. The photographs had to be based on our photographs from photography induction and the colour that we were given in Visual Language. We the had to make the back of the postcard and reference the pantone colour (Or one of the more prominent colours) of the photograph on the front.
My colour was red and I chose to focus in on one part of the photographs in large like an extreme close up macro picture. The camera quality wasn'y good enough to zoom in massively on the colours but I think I managed to capture some really intersting textures and overall a visually appealing set of postcards.

Printing:

I had these postcards booked in to print at the same time as my final resolution for Collection 100, so the exact same problem happened here as well. I printed these postcards in one of the Mac suites using PDF to make them double sided. The stock used is just normal thin weighted paper which is the only problem with the final postcards but this was a result of the digital print going wrong.
In future I would have had a plan B in case the print room incident happened again.

Below is each post card and then directly underneath is the back of it.
