This project was created for GIT 334. We were asked to create an original design of a “commercial” or “advertising” nature using a combination of the following techniques:
-Video
-3D
-Animation
-Retouching
-Compositing
Inspired by Netflix show “Dark”, I created a poster for a fictional movie called “Lost”. The movie revolves around a kid who’s lost in a parallel universe or alternate universe. I took a minimalist approach to showcase the concept of the movie. The design is a composite of 6 images which I retouched to make them blend in together.
Techniques Used:
1- Compositing
The poster is a composite of 6 images which I retouched to make them blend in together. I used blending modes and masking techniques to create the final composite. At first, I started with the door image, and I removed the part that I wanted to place another image in by masking. The girl image is what took most of the time because it required isolating the girl from the background. I then duplicated the girl and used a gaussian blur filter to make her blend in. I also created a shadow of her using the transformation technique. I used blend modes for the rest of the images.
1-Retouching
I used retouching because the composite isn’t enough to make the picture look realistic. I applied plenty of adjustment layers to make all pictures have the same exposure and effect. I also added highlights with the brush tool and blend modes to give it realistic look.
3- 3D
I wanted to give the movie name a special effect that makes it pop out while still keeping the minimalist feel of the design.
