Project 5 Cameron Wold

So I tried to make a poster advertising a concert for 2 bands I like, Behold... The Arctopus and UneXpect. So I also did a theme of amazing bassists because they both have one. The color theme was white, black, and #a31a1a-a shade of red. So for certain things like the unexpect logo and part of the guitar I just put a satin shade over the images to go more with the color theme. So for the images I extracted them through pen, eraser, and quick selection. And ordered them in a way I liked with coils of guitar strings lacing the top and sides like a theater drape because it is a live performance. As for the text I tried to make my own type of name logo for each band still representing their styles. Arctopus is a technical, sporadic, and sounds computerized. So I put an inner glow with dissolve to make the name somewhat sporadic. And the font is ok in that it is a text font from a computer and represents the other aspects. While UneXpect always has a large exuberant X in their name and is a more organic font in comparison to the rest of the text. So I made 2 different layers with X on its own and then I used liquify to stretch the X to what it usually is like more so. And for both names I embossed both to give both names a lot of depth make it noticeable in comparison to the rest of the text. For the top text I embossed it to give it a shine and made it the color a31a1a but it blended into the rest of the poster so I gave it a large spread out black shadow to contrast it making it easily legible. As for the rest of the text it was just standard and was not edited other then just skewing it slightly.
