I never have been so busy since I started Apollo 365° Project. Never! It feels good, and it will end soon, like that, I will find some time to increase the quality of my poster. I know this is wonderful news!
The Design
As often with Apollo 365° posters, I didn’t know what I will do before open Photoshop and choose one of Apollo’s picture I get. I chose Apollo’s skull because I didn’t use this picture for a long time, and I thought it would be a good idea to inspire myself freshly. I need to do and learn new things these days! I want to change and grow my designer’s skills
Talking about that when you already have the experience, it is difficult to find things you don’t know. Read a book, yes, why not? There is maybe 80% —I want to stay modest — of information, you know.
About today’s poster, by doing, I got the simple idea to mix the skull of Apollo in front of the same picture, but larger and with a Pixelate Filter applied on. I also applied a transparent gradient around the first picture to integrate it with the image behind.
I Did the same with the font, I wrote my title, duplicated the layer, and applied a Pixelate filter. I did that several times with different settings to avoid repetition. I used the same process with a black and white gradient with a pink-red to light blue gradient that I applied above.
Speed Art Poster #262
The only things I did today, aside from work was a shower and shaving my beard! I only want to go bed now!
About the video #261, I made something totally wrong and I still don’t know what. The video shows a smaller screen and I am sorry about that! But today, you can take a look at the speed art video #262 without being disturbed by any wrong things I made before. The quality is fine, and the size too! See you tomorrow for poster #263! Have a nice evening!
