I first began by using the Ellipse tool to create circles. I needed an outer circle followed by a slightly smaller inner circle. I also had to do the same with two inner circles further in the centre of the larger ones.
I researched the size of a DVD label to make sure I knew the measurements. By making sure the ellipses were all in the centre I was able to make a template that resembled a disc by having the correct sizes.
I then, using the top menus went to View menu, guides and the make, this in turn allowed me to make the circles into guides. I did this again to lock the guides to stop them moving. I will then be able to add things to the disc template and see where they will sit on the disc and what will be cut off from the edges.
I also set the colour to CMYK, the same as my DVD cover, as this is again the colour format used when printing.
