Text Poster

I’ve decided to posturize the well-known phrase “Cartman” uses from the show called “South Park.” It was really fun making the poster in general with all the cropping involved when I had to edit the mask layers. The assignment started with the main text, which I used 3 different blending modes to get the desired effect, then the layers styles (like drop shadow and inner glow). It was hard to get the right amount of the satin effect since it kept over powering the color of the text, but I managed to get the right amount of it in the end. After that I just added adjustment layers to the whole thing and then cropped out part of them in order to give the text more debt with the different layers of colors. In the end, I just added a Japanese volcano on top of the both backgrounds and blended it using the ‘blend if’ option to take out more of the shadow parts from the volcano and leave the highlighted lightning.
            The assignment wasn’t hard, but it did occupy a lot of time in order to make. The layers were organized from my file and could use more work for the solid color backgrounds. Overall it was pretty fun and interesting in creating a poster based on a silly quote.
