New Gradient Poster #318

This early morning, I closed the alarm clock and fall asleep again. When I finally wake up it was time to start to design my daily poster. Fortunately, it made me full of motivation to create something awesome.

The Design

Yesterday I took a quick look about the new features Adobe brings in Photoshop. It looked great and today I used the premade gradients to create the poster. I stat this as a rule to help me elaborate today’s poster.

I start by creating a background that I fill with red to blue gradient. I place Apollo on the top bottom of the poster, duplicate it on the top and one more time on its right. Then, I add a rectangle with a black stroke and a red to yellow gradient. I wrote the title in the black inside, add some lines on the right and duplicate the rectangle.

I created a geometric shape on the bottom right with a shadow behind and a highlight on the top. I also create a pattern made a black pattern of dots and squares that I cut over by creating a geometric shape.

I played with many different elements and colors, if you want to know how I made everything from the start to the end, take a look at the video of the timelapse video below.
