Digital Screen Printing !!!!!!!


this is a digital screen print, that someone has done, for a band called the bronx, it was done to advertise the bands tour dates, it has been done by using different images of humans and of an animal.

to me i think that this would be good to use for my album cover because i like the way that they have taken a never seen before image and made it look normal, and i think that the face that you don't see it very often is what makes it catch peoples eyes and makes people want to look more and that is the techniques i have been looking for and i think that this one is one of the best.







this is the image that i chose for my poster the reason for this was because i wanted to firstly pick an image that matches my summer album and when i saw this image not only was it an artist that i have chosen on my album track list but also the image itself looks like summer, it looks like its hot there and like she is chilling from the sun which is what brought me to pick this image. 

i then had to get an image to go with my body image, i chose a lioness the reason for this is because to me Beyonce is strong and has a power that comes along with her which is why i knew that a lioness would be perfect for her. 



this was the final image that i came out with, and i think that it looks amazing, and also what i think works really well is the body looks like it should match the lion, the whole poster screams attitude and you still get the scene of summer by the pose of the body. 

to do this after id got together all my images i had to put them all into photoshop, i first had to work on the body, this involved changing the colour of the image and making it into grey scale and changing the colour levels and gradient to make it look like we had printed the image. i then had to take out the head of Beyonce to allow it to be replaced by the lioness head and this was the part that i liked the most, after the image had started to become together i had to put a block colour into the background by creating a new layer then recoloured in the body to a white colour on the other layer to get this separate colour. then by playing around with the different colours levels to make it look more of a print, i then in the final stage added type.

 i chose a colour that would stand out and the colour yellow reminded me of the sun and had that effect of warmth, also the bright pink made me think of summer clothes and how most clothes have bright colours, also the colours really make the black with the detail stand out and that is what i was keeping in mind when creating this. 

if i was to do this again i would take more time when adding the flames, because that is what i had the most trouble with, so i f i had more time id want to go back over that, but for me that is the only thing that i would improve because the end image came out better than expected and i think that it worked really well. i would also add more text with more time, by making the image have more background to it would allow me to add more text and detail. but overall it was amazing and turned out a lot better than expected.
