In this project I'll be working on the even at Fringe called Divas the Drag Revue, the style I chose was punk because it works well with the theme. The programs I used Photoshop to draw the torn assets and photos from google, and InDesign to design a poster, brochure and flier.
The reason why I chose Divas the Drag Revue because it was the first drag show I've ever went to in my life and I loved it. it was at Fringe Festival where all the performers and drags were performed and they do it every year.
I found some good photos of the drag queens from Divas the Drag Reveue, then I used Photoshop to edit the photos into a newspaper and magazine cutout. how I've done it was duplicate the original layer to start editing. for colour the whole thing i used colour adjustments to automatically change the colour for me and to make it look like its from the newspaper i used filter gallery and chose the filter that works like halftone pattern and grain texture.
For the torn asset I hand drew them because I'm not really sure if its a good size for the text box. The colours I used for was just black and white and when it comes to drawing the outside I used the brush tool KYLE Ultimate Charcoal and I drew a couple of them but different shapes.
Since that just a plain square with colours is not enough so I created the paper textures for the titles and the background cover in Photoshop the same way I've done with the drag queen photos, the only thing I've done for these textures was to use adjustment and change every colour for the paper texture and just one colour for the background but I also used the same brush tool KYLE Ultimate Charcoal.
During the module I do have some organization and time management issues because I got a lot of work outside of the unit, there's some saving problems when I realised that the other photos were saved from the different computer without dragging it into google drive so i have to go back to the other computer I last saved it to. Also I'm new to this stuff in the first place and having issues at the start until the end I got the hand of it.
At the end, I really enjoyed designing these posters, brochures and fliers, it was such a very fun to experience new things and it may help me in the future with my art along with it.
