In Progress Works

I have always been fasinated with the media surrounding bands or nightclubs, for example flyers, banners, posters, and other merchandice.
after going to the gate crashers night club in nottingham, i decided to take one of the photographs of my companions and create my own flyer for gate crashers. here i have just broken down the different stages of what happened until I achieved the final product.



wel as you always do we start of opening a photshop document, i seem to always use rather A4 or A3 size on landscape, because this gives you a lot of space to try stuff out and to do resizing.
this piece will be made up of quite a few layers becuase it allows me to sigle out one problem and edit jus that bit.

first i started by adding a new layer and filling it in black

i then added a new layer with a picture of my friend out clubbin and put a cut out effect on it, to make the picture more abstract, i then brang the opicaty down becuase i dont want to flyer to be too bold and vibrant

i then added a cloud effect with a red - white glow gradient effect

this cloud was where the font on some of the writting was going to go

i then addede some minor information that was to be on the flyer, the date adn time and prices

the design was mainly black with a slight image, the only colour for the moment was on the cloud,so i added a slight red to clear gradient to add a bit more colour.

and the final piece that needed to be added the nightclub logo.
