DMA234_preProduction_processes

When I started thinking about building up the red-bull project.
I have a little thought about using the up coming soccer world cup as an idea.

After I got the idea. I went to find "raw source". As you can see, some of them is already manipulated, but most aren't.

I was gana put in my skateboard in one of the panel, but I figure, if I decided to use the soccer idea, I shouldn't put in my skateboard design in there. However, i still tried to make a skateboard design. For it.

The final has 3 different layers. Mostly it was a headach just to try to color correct it, so the "person", "skateboard", and "background" would match, but it seem very hard to get the hand of it. After trail error and put the skateboard in different direction and poses. 

And this is the final look.

The final skateboard looks a little weird, since there are too many red color on the person, but as I reduce the red. the hand doesn't match with the background.
At a point I was really frustrated so I decided to go like this.

I find it match a bit better if I cover my face, because the hand and the head just doesn't match doesn't matter how I manipulate the color. This is why I decided to go alone with the soccer picture instead of my skateboard picture.

And this is the final panel. There is more information and story telling about this design at http://cjc-j.blogspot.com/2011/12/dma234storyboardredbull.html

DMA234_Borchure

This like a borchure for "redbull" drink.

1st panel is to attract people to read it,

2nd panel start to attract skateboard fan to get interested.

3rd panel is advertise redbull as a subconcious.

4th panel is to advertise fully with question mark.

5th panel gives info and explain how it gives you wing by flying with your skateboard event.

The borchure is made mostly base on my work like a little booklet.

DMA234_Pumkim

This pumkim dude is draw base on hand with tablet.
It is a new thing to me, which was very hard, cause the pen isn't like pen.
But it was a fun experience.
it is a simple brush tool with minor adjustments with the size and opacity to create this image.
There are varies of brushes, I find some brush are good to use, some are just impossible or doesn't go as ideal as I thought.

DMA234_storyboard_redbull

The story goes
1. fire background
2. Redbull drink SMACK into frame with shakes.
3. Then a person kicking soccer
4. The ball grow wing and heading to net
5. logo at the left top expand down to middle
6. the soccer came back push red bull up and appear in middle "Gives you wing" to give an impression of wing(win).


This is my 2nd version. Due to lost of usb. I can't back up my files.
The pictures are mostly from internet, then afterward uses Photoshop to manipulate, including cut/lasso/moving pixels/ color correct/lighting/transform/modes.

DMA234_skateboard

This  composition is separate into 3 layers.
Myself, skateboard and the park.

I've moved a lot of pixels to get the clear shape of the person and skateboard.

I found out the picture is somehow a bit pixelized.
so I decided to use a small image to match the pixel. (so the pixel won't be as appealing)

 Then, I used level/curse to adjust, also with opacity...etc effects try to match up the colors.

Unfortunately, the lighting is not good. it still seem a lot fake.
