Vintage Travel Poster

My Creation 

Media Arts Class - done in Photoshop CS4, one week.

Our job was to create a vintage travel poster by recreating an existing vintage travel poster from the place of our choice. Although it may not be the exact same, it has much of the same features. All the elements including the building, beach and palm tree in my design are all taken from separate images. 

Using something called artistic cut-out and using other methods to give texture, it gave my poster a vintage look and helped the images look as if it were coming off the page. It was a technique that helped me to understand the difference between what advertiser use when making things look modernized or old fashioned. 


By clicking the link above, it will bring up the original vintage Cuban travel poster which was my inspiration and what guided me towards my finished product.
