PHOTOSHOP

Photoshop is a software that I have never really been confident in, so at the beginning of this project I was struggling to get to grips with anything. I spent a lot of time not just watching tutorials of specific effects, but also designers going into depth about their process when designing a poster. I've embedded some of the videos I found usefull:

POSTERS

In the end I didn't create as many posters as I would have liked, I started the week absolutely HATING photoshop. But by the end of the 2 week project I was beginning to understand how the software could help me more, and was actually a bit sad when we had to move onto Illustrator, as I was finally starting to enjoy creating the posters. While there isn't as many posters as I had initially hoped, this project was extremely beneficial for me, and spending time understanding processes on youtube was a huge help.

ILLUSTRATOR

I chose to base my pins on the song "I Know The End" by Phoebe Bridgers. There is a lot of imagery within the lyrics, something I thought would be simple but effective when replicated as enamel badges.

SONG LYRICS IN BACKGROUND:
Either way, we're not alone
I'll find a new place to be from
A haunted house with a picket fence
To float around and ghost my friends

SONG LYRICS IN BACKGROUND:
No, I'm not afraid to disappear
The billboard said, "The end is near"
I turned around, there was nothing there
Yeah, I guess the end is here

SONG LYRICS IN BACKGROUND:
​Windows down, scream along
To some America First rap, country song
A slaughterhouse, an outlet mall
Slot machines, fear of God
