Jay Gatsby

What I did and Why I did it

This weekend I worked on Jay Gatsby’s poster. I got it to a point that I liked it, but when I got into class today for some reason I hated it. So, I completely re-did it. The child of two graphic designers in me just wasn’t happy with the overall composition of the poster, and I wasn’t really sure how to fix it, so I decided that starting clean was the best option. This weekend, I also watched a couple of lynda.com videos about photoshop in order to get more familiar with what the heck I am doing, so that I’m not just plunking around and pressing buttons until something looks good.
