the sticker is jarring and unneeded. Also to have the basis of your cover have a 420 joke is weak. I like the colors and filters you used.

If you're Jewish you're privileged. Of course, they won't admit this.

A shitty portfolio has adverse effects in this industry. And shit people skills.

If you're black, you might be expected to do hip hop/urban decay aesthetic work, and would probably surprise certain employers if your style is really minimum. That's happened before to the black designers I know. But they've never had a problem finding work.

I googled your brand and I had some extra time on my hands. I just hope this isn't so sort of initiation into the Illuminati.

Your welcome.

nice copy of obey.

Pop art. Andy Warhol.

Why have you not hung yourself, OP?

It's not even real Pop-Art. It's more like the shitty iPhoto Filter called Pop Art, does not even have a real stencil of the person but a botched one. And the size of the person is off as well. OP, did you use iPhoto and think it would be a good idea?

I may not be much of a designer, but if I had to guess, I'd say he custom did the angles in Illustrator, brought it into a 3d program like C4D, and converted them in a tube shape.

>>276079
That makes sense. I guess I'll have to rough it.

I would draw it out in illustrator then bring it into photoshop and mess with transparencies and layer effects. You would probably have to paint in some of the lighting yourself though. I don't know how to C4D though : (

The perspective seems a bit off, so I wouldn't say it's the Illustrator's 3D extrude effect alone. Could be, but I doubt it.

It could be a blend of two objects with Specified steps set to 9001, the first object being the size of the text and the other one being behind the first one with like 50% width and 40% height.

OR, it could be just a careful pen tool job. This is most likely.

The bulging is an illusion and comes from the

Just put some stacked triangles behind it.

That's what I'd do.

Obviously do them better than my shitty paint example.

Maybe just a magenta one and a cyan one on top. White in the middle maybe.
Go crazy with some lasers.

I do 80s design a lot, and it's worth it to go way over the top. Even really kitschy sometimes.

>>275759
Duplicate logo without glow,
make 1x3 pixel pattern of black and white pixel apply pattern overlay
mess with blending options

Also for your information, I'm just a student myself, I won't get any revenue out of it. It's entirely voluntary. I would be therefore really thankfull for any hints or tips in how to make an scientific event as appealing as possible.

>>277273
For more information: It's going to be a convention about the newest advances in biotech and biosciences. So what fonts, which kind of format would you recommend?

>>277273
Make sure your flyer has depth. I would work in Adobe Illustrator and indesign.

Set the required dimensions for the page, rescale the content and save as a pdf. Then give the pdf to the printer. All vectors should be saved correctly.

>>277018
yeah that was my "last" resort, I had thought there was something related to the export.
Mostly because I'm afraid of fucking up something during the rescale (positions etc.)

I guess that "group-ing" every element in the page and then just mutiply by 10 its dimensions will do the trick?

>last resort

its like a 30 second job. You really are a moron.

it's both aesthetic choice and an economical one. there's a good chance lots of those covers are silk screened, which is a cheap way to do color prints (but limits you to one or two colors, since each layer needs to be hand printed)... while the technique is similar acros those tapes, I'd say the imagery has a lot of vareity and feels very contemporary. But the printing method is almost like an instagram filter, unifying them with the same effect. Lots of those images were composed on a computer and probably printed onto acetate for the silkscreen. also a lot of the imagery being sampled comes from old movies and advertisements...

>>276985
Thank you anon, that was extremely helpful.

Not really...it's work, you just gotta do it. Don't multitask.

>>276956
Make a routine, schedule to work on different things at different times, a little each day.

>>276956
Having a clear goal helps.

When I do work for clients, I honestly spend all day on it. I reach that state of zen where I cant stay away.

When I'm working on personal projects, I find it hard to have motivation. I'll start up the program, stare at it for a few minutes, then close it.
Of course I get those moments where I'm full of motivation and knock out an entire personal project in one sitting, but it's rare.

Having a fire under your ass really helps you stay motivated. Or at least it does for me.
