Poster and Program Artwork - Week 5

The program design was approved, so I commenced with removing the show details from it, which was a simple task and didn't take long.

My next task was to finish the background for the inside pages. Since the idea of graffiti are and a clip art was approved, I started to use the ideas I had come up with for the poster. For the brick I had to recreate it as it was to be a bigger surface than the poster and made it the same texture. I chose to do the animated wall again, for the same reasons as the poster. I then turned down the opacity of the brick wall to 20%. This was so that the brick wall didn't over shadow the content of the program and to too really feel like it was a background. Once the brick wall was finished I wanted to add some colour to it, with some graffiti writing and a picture to reflect the word. The words I chose were: Love, Peace, Honesty and Rejoice. I chose these words as these were the core values I felt resonated the most in the show.

For the words I used Ariel as the font for the graffiti. This was primarily due to the fact I was running out of time, and I didn't want to waste too much going through hundreds of fonts. For the colours of the words, I played around with the gradient tool. This tool allowed me to make the words as colourful as possible. The gradient combinations I used were: Dark red - light red, Dark blue - royal blue and a rainbow effect. For the pictures I used basic clip arts to reflect the words as much as possible.

Once this was complete I started to fix the amends requested by the director. This time there wasn't too many, mainly due to having spell and grammar checking it before sending it off last week. The only changes were the confirmation of cast and crew roles and the special thanks section.
