pretty amazing how these kinds of fake 'design' schools can prosper completely unchecked just on the fact that there's no non-profit institute to say "teaching kids to use the adobe suite does not qualify as a design education".
It's no wonder that the graphic design industry is a mess when there's some hundred of colleges like that handing out BFAs across the US. It's also no wonder why people on this board and outside claim "art school is a waste of time" when this is what passes as one.

To add a nail in the coffin, this school's accreditation is no longer recognized by the US Education Dept because they helped too many scam schools. This tells you all you need to know.

(these things cost a shiton of money so if I can help someone save theirs it's really worth it)

everyone should stop the awkward 'lets relate 50s hollywood monsters craze with rock music'. I mean, I`ve seen the concept of using zombies, aliens, godzilla shooting lazers out of the eyes so many times so its now a lame meme.

>it's a meme
True, but punk is kind of a meme itself.
And photocopied zines made out of other photocopies being photocopied and mailed overseas was like old-school memeing.

>zombie rock
The cramps set the canon here, mostly because they sound just as if it was sounding at a zombie swamp party with ugly caribbean decorations and hula-hoops.
First, push play

Then google their posters
Then google b-movie zombie posters
That should help spark an idea

probably an illustration like pic related but with a graveyard for background, it seems hard but with a tablet and some reference pics it shouldn't be that hard, plus is only the half as you can duplicate one half in the other side.

This is boring and don't fit the band. DAMN at least tried something, I don't really know what were they thinking

>>316438
>or is there a board dedicated to that sort of thing?

Not really, but for your political shitposting needs there's always >>>/v/

/b/

>>316438
If you actually focus on the design itself
yes, it's relevant to /gd/ regardless of what software you use
however, you are posting some copy/paste shit that isn't even centered and just leaving it there
/gd/ is for talking about design, asking advice and helping each other out and you are doing neither.
if you wanna go
>hey i did some dope flags, wanna see them?
we have a general /critique/ >>>315809
but put some fucking love in what you make and don't just shitpost our board

remember this is a blue board so don't go full /pol/ because we aren't up for fascist shit
most of us are oldfags and have seen /pol/ change through the years (you might be a refugee from /int/ but the point still applies)
i will greentext it since it seems to be the language of your people
>/pol/ was about triggering people
>it was amazing at it and many lulz were had
>kind of like oldschool /b/ with people organizing through irc
>then came the newfags
>instead of playing along, they fell for it
>thinking they are redpilled and just consuming propaganda without even questioning the propaganda itself

>inb4 being this triggered

"psdkeys OR graphicex" actions

>>316409
whats the action for the pic related OP?

>>316421
I went on a three week downloading spree when I first found psdkeys.

Aw shit I didn't mean precomposed I meant prerendert.

those are a lot of 3dlayers so it's not surprising it takes a long time.
what format have you prerendered the animations? Quicktime based formats (such as h264) take some effort if you are on windows (since you have to run everything through qtserver before actually being able to work with it).
What about render settings? Do you have all ram allocated to it?
Try rendering with mercury playback only (might seem counter intuitive to take the gpu out but usually solves a lot of problems).
Make sure your "windows" renders don't interact with lights, you will keep the shadows as long as the backgrounds accept lights and is a lot less to calculate.

Good luck OP, that looks really nice

I have Adobe illustrator CS6, I have only used it a few times for a type communications class I took last semester. The team captain (her mom) wanted five cartoon people, and not a more modern logo.

I do not see a connection either between the five people and cancer awareness other then the one bald guy (who was requested by the team captain.)

Thank you for the text suggestion, am going to read. Also I know... it looks like shit... but after spending hours at school trying to use the waacom touch pads, I ended up tracing my original image with a mouse in photoshop.

OP, your main problem is that you are trying to build the whole thing around a kickass illustration that you can't draw in the first place.
If you want to pursue this route:
>Draw it on paper with a pencil
>Start with basic shapes (pickindofrelated) and make it so all characters frame everything nicely in a nice composition
>Google images of people in those kind of poses and draw over those basic shapes/stick figures
>erase and redraw as much as needed with no fear of messing up
>At this point you should have a bloody mess of lines everywhere, for the head, you have 6 different circles and so on...
>Grab a black thin sharpie (or something to that effect) and trace over the good lines
>Erase all pencil lines
>Scan it
>paint it on Ps or run it through VectorMagic and color it in Ai

Still not a logo

>>316354
Thanks

Blue was always a color of "competence" and "professionalism". For my taste all these meanings for colors feel often just tacky.

not op but i got a dumb question i couldn't find an answer on google.

should i make the favicon backgrounds transparent?

>>316324
yeah, favicons have transparent backgrounds, you can test your icon by sticking a <link> to it in a dummy html page and checking how it looks in your browser
