So Creative Allies and the Vans Warped Tour just had a contest to design an edgy poster for the 2012 Vans Warped Tour based on the phrase "Music Makes the World New," an adaptation from a popular phrase in Mayan culture. It was left open to interpretation. Here is what I came up with:
At first I really wasn't sure I was going to be able to pull it off. But just as any other last minute project, inspiration hit me at the last second and it's turned out to be one of my favorite pieces as of late. From collecting the photo reference to spending a straight full thirteen hours Photoshopping and compiling elements, I learned a lot of invaluable lessons in the process. Like, document where you download Photoshop brushes from, and make sure they are available for commercial use. Things I never had to worry about as a student because well, everything besides plagiarism is legal to use for education purposes only. Overall, I'm pretty happy with how this turned out and I'm hoping to post an update when the results come through. Good luck to everyone else who entered the contest!
Oh yeah, and if you would like to stop by and give my poster a vote, the link to do so is here! You can also check out and vote for all the other awesome posters submitted.
Thank you everyone for all the love and support!
