Concert Poster No Doubt

For the poster No Doubt I did a couple of different designs and individual posters. I decided to post two of them because I thought these were my favorite ones and I felt I did the best on these two. For the one poster I did individual text boxes as the back round and then colored in all of them to blend together. This was kind of hard to figure out because I had to make all the colors blend together nicely and make sure that each box worked. For the other poster, I did a gradient back round and use two different colors to create the final back round.

For both posters I worked in Photo Shop first, then transferred then whole image into Quark. I altered the picture of the band in Photo Shop using different techniques and magic erase tool to cut out the back round. In both posters I had trouble getting the images to erase and cut the back round out. A couple of the band members got their heads cut off and I didn’t know how to fix this. Over all, I still think they both look good even though the pictures are not too well put together. I from there went into Quark and played around with the text boxes and using different kinds of fonts. I did not have any layers beside the one that I used. I overlapped everything and using the texts boxes to over lap over the picture. I was kind of confused that there were not layers like there were in Photo Shop. After I played around with it for a while I got the hang of it.

I really worked hard on both of these posters. All together I did four posters. I had a lot of fun just playing around with Quark trying new things. I really enjoyed doing this assignment.
