PRACTICAL & TUTORIAL (PROJECT 4 :  SELF-TITLED)

  • Sketches
This week I started sketching and creating a digital poster. Based on the statement, I decided to create a poster that involves the way to spend relaxing time through my hectic college life, conveying the importance of having my time. Here are my sketches;

  • Creating a poster
First of all, I took a selfy and collected images for a collage from the internet.

When I cut out myself with the selection tool, there were unselected parts, so I refined them with the refined edge brush tool and brush tool, as well as the tart, teapot, bus, and cup. These are output as new layers.

Next, I arrange them in each places based on my sketches. However, the balance of the collage felt off, and it was a bit messy because of the background, so I changed the layout. The right pics are the final arrangement.

The edges of my head were too smooth for the fur hat, so I refined it using a refined edges brush.

The last step was adjusting colors to match the concept of this work. I added adjustment layers for each object and made them low in pigment and saturation, creating a chill atmosphere.

Finding pics to match my thoughts was a bit difficult, but I could do that. This week focus on creating a poster, and I wanted to create a subdued impression by using calm colors, so I was particular about color adjustments.
