Making superheroes come to life!

18 November 2011 ~ Comments Off

This past year, graphic design has been fun, but physically taxing! For each project, I spend a lot of time sketching, planning and researching, re-sketching, bringing my idea to the computer screen and sketching there and then finally working out some form of a project… And then I might sketch a little more just to be safe!

Superheros!

My version of Peter Parker, from Spider-man!

But for our most recent project in graphic design, I had very little sketching to do because I was able to use an idea that I’ve been wanting to bring to life for a long time now! The project required that we take two photos and merge them together (with Photoshop) to make them look believable. As soon as my professor revealed the project requirements, I knew exactly what I was going to do: Superheroes!

As I said, this is an idea that has been bouncing around my head for a LONG time now, so I knew exactly what to do and how to do it! But I’m very thankful to the friends I have on campus because this project would, literally, be impossible without their help! Thanks to them the project was a huge success and one of the photos was featured on a international graphic design blog!

So check out the full set of superheroes I made here! and be sure to check back often because I am going to keep adding photos to the set as time goes on!

God bless!
