Music: The Evolving Project




This assignment had us work with the basic uses of Photoshop, mainly focusing on layers. We were given a music note, three musicians, two backgrounds, (one tie-dye, the other graffiti), and a layer with several colored strips. I thought of arranging the layers into what looked like a poster for a concert, or maybe auditions for a band. When I moved the colored strips into a vertical position, it gave me the idea for placing the musicians into the columns, and making a poster. I also tried to use contrast to make the musicians stand out from the strips. I distorted the lines a little to match the tie-dye background. 

I'm happy with the final result, although some of the layers seem a little pixelated.



This was the second part of the assignment, where we use the background that we didn't use for the first part. I thought of making the strips look tattered this time, and positioned them so they looked like they were almost taping over some of the graffiti'd area. Again I used contrast to make the musicians stand out from the different colored areas. This second part is more gritty or worn-down than the first.

I also think this one turned out well, but again, some layers seem somewhat pixelated
