Friend Poster

 
For this poster, I took pictures of me with my pets and put them each onto backgrounds and changed the hue and saturation. I then created a new page(8x10, 300 resolution), and created the poster background using the techniques we used on the retro poster (old paper with color burned clouds). I then placed the pictures on the poster and applied an uneven eraser to the edge and used the burn tool on them. I then created paths in the form of the words 'PETS ARE FRIENDS TOO!" and added a stroke and outer glow. I also created the heart and added and inner and outer glow.

Design Pattern

 

For this image, I took a single guitar and duplicated it to make a ring. I then duplicated the ring and re-sized then to create the background. I created a stage, and added my ipod image on the stage. I added hair to the image, so I look like I have hair. Around the guitar in the front, I created two different paths and set the stroke to a brush stroke.

Movie Poster

For this movie poster, I created a glowing ball and then added pictures to make it into a movie poster.
I used this meadow as the background for my poster.

I extracted Julie Andrews from this image to use in my poster.
I placed this horse in the background three times. I changed the saturation a little and blurred it to make it fit.
I took the bottom of this movie poster for the bottom of mine. I painted over the creases so that it would blend in.

Vintage Polaroid

For this image, I used a picture of my sister riding her horse and put it onto a piece of paper. I duplicated the picture and rotated on top of a background. I also added the word 'riding' underneath the photo.
