To all professional Photoshop / Colour Conversion / Printing Specialists
I have just finished creating a DVD Cover Design and Label for a new DVD that one of my clients is about to release into the market.
I created the master file for the background graphics in photoshop ( .psd ) and then imported these backgrounds into Freehand where I have overlaid my vector graphics.
The problem I am having is with the background graphics in photoshop in relation to the RGB to CMYK conversion.
I originally created the .psd in RGB and it looks fantastic and my client is really happy :) However when I try and convert it to CMYK it looks absolutely terrible.
I tried just giving my printer the background graphics in RGB, however when I received the proofs, again everything looked a lot different to the depth and richness of the RGB version and essentially looked really bad.
This proof-print lost a lot of the deep rich blue colours and instead looked gray/purple :( and the photo on the cover has gone really bright and is white clipping.
Everyday I see printed DVD covers that look fantastic. I want this DVD Cover for my client to look FANTASTIC !
I am looking for a professional Photoshop / Colour Conversion / Printing Specialist to convert the background .psd graphics ( Cover/Inlay/Label ) to a version of CMYK that will looks absolutely fanstastic and retains the vibrant punch of the RGB version.
THIS IS PURELY AN RGB TO CMYK COLOUR CONVERSION JOB. THE POSITIONING AND LAYOUT OF ALL GRAPHICS MUST REMAIN THE SAME SO THAT WHEN THEY ARE IMPORTED INTO FREEHAND ALL THE VECTOR GRAPHICS WILL ALIGN PERFECTLY.

Also included in this .zip file is a .pdf of the final design with all the vectors overlaid in Freehand. This is supplied just for reference so you can see what the final design looks like and the result we would like with the CMYK Conversion.
If you are not a professional Photoshop / Colour Conversion / Printing Specialist, please do NOT respond. I do not want to receive standard response from people who have not read this brief.
For the right person this job should be able to be completed quickly and professionally with outstanding results.
I look forward very much to hearing from potential Photoshop / Colour Conversion / Printing Specialists soon, as this project needs to be completed without delay.
