Today I decided to make a movie poster. It's done in a similar style to the poster for the movie 'The Birds' (look it up, a fantastic piece of artwork). It is also inspired one of my favourite films, Falling Down. It's not a particularly great film but it made a strong impression on me as a teenager. I reduced it down to the basic elements, his cracked glasses and tie.
Wasn't sure what to do today, and ended up just making a pattern. I tried to create some sort of weird perspective effect similar to MC Escher but nothing quite so extreme. I started out with just 3 blocks of colour, arranged it all and then added some effects like vignetting and a very subtle texture.

For the first day I decided I'd like to do something inspired by one of my favourite games, Fallout 3. The vault boy is a 1950s style illustrated mascot for the company Vault-Tec who make underground vaults. The scenario of the game puts you in a post apocalyptic wasteland so I introduced some heavy texture effects to make the poster look old and weathered.
