Common materials are: newspapers, mountains, flowers and other elements. Second, if you start from the main body, you can choose some elements to reorganize; I choose some geometric elements as a foil and add some elements such as wavy lines or broken lines. Third, adjust the imported character material appropriately, and adjust the layer to match the mask; Figures and hillsides are decolored and adjusted and embedded into the drawn graphics, as shown in the figure. Fourth, draw a general picture first, and then describe the details. How to make wavy lines: first draw a straight line, click Filter-Distortion-Waves, adjust the parameters, and then copy the graphics. Fifth, you can embed elements such as newspapers after drawing graphics. Sixth, tobacco and other materials can be reorganized at will, and collage can be based on one's own feelings or aesthetic feelings, with no specific requirements. Seven, the selection of text with serif, because the picture is a portrait of women, the color is a softer color. Eight, finally, the overall elements are in place, and the text is modified to complete the complete poster. How to do collage design and what skills are there? Minimalism is one of the most popular design styles in the design circle, while collage is completely another style, but it is still sought after by many designers. Widely used in magazine design, poster design, e-commerce design, but it seems that it is not as easy to learn as minimalist style. In fact, the characteristics of collage style are also obvious. Today, Teacher Onion will share with you how to master collage design. The inspiration of collage design comes from collage art, which is a surreal artistic creation technique, deconstructing and reorganizing elements without limiting creative materials. Its representatives are Picasso and Braque. Designers get inspiration from collage art and apply collage form and creativity to graphic design, so there is collage design. For example, Japanese graphic designer Tadanori Yokoo likes to use collage to design posters. Another extension of collage art is the popular hand book, that is, collage and combination of various elements in the notebook. The most important thing to learn a design style is to find its rules. Through observation, I found that the design of collage style generally has the following characteristics: there is often more than one element style in the layout, such as the font is often a mixture of handwriting, serif and sans serif; For example, picture elements may include graffiti, illustrations, photography, vector graphics, abstraction and concreteness, geometry and irregularity, plane and stereo, black and white and color, and so on. In addition, the materials (textures) of collage elements can also be diversified, such as cloth patterns, paper patterns, adhesive tapes, physical objects and so on. Collage, literally, we can see that it is a way to combine various elements in a plane space, so the overlapping relationship between elements is inevitable. Such as overlay, overlay, overlay, overlay, overlay. Using superposition can not only increase the connection between elements, make the layout more integrated, but also enhance the layering of the picture and make the best use of the layout space. Overlay is usually accompanied by strokes and color blocks, because when different pictures and words are superimposed together, it may be difficult to distinguish them, which may easily lead to visual confusion, so we need to draw strokes or use color blocks to distinguish them. Because collage design comes from collage art, many of its elements are cut from other things, so there will be obvious cutting marks on the edge of the picture. Collage design usually deliberately retains this feature, and brush strokes are actually to shape this effect. Deconstruction is structural decomposition, that is, taking a complete thing apart and turning it into parts. Removing the integrity of the original thing can give it a sense of mystery, which is also an important feature of collage art. After deconstruction, it needs to be reorganized. The recombination of collage design is different from synthesis. Synthesis pays attention to nature, unity and truth, and its purpose is to be visually reasonable, and no traces of collage can be seen. The recombination in collage art is usually a surreal combination, which deliberately preserves the traces of collage and creates a simple and mixed beauty. Heterogeneity is a typical application of collage combination, that is, elements that can echo each other in shape but are completely different in texture, style or color are combined together. Compared with most graphic designs, they pay attention to alignment, neatness and order in composition and typesetting, but collage design has no special requirements, just to achieve the overall visual balance and look comfortable, so it tests the designer's aesthetics and understanding of graphic composition. After summarizing the characteristics of collage design, Mr. Onion threw bricks to everyone. The demand is to design a poster for the American classic jeans brand Lee, which has a history of 100 years, and its tonality is biased towards fashion, individuality and casualness, which is more suitable for collage style. (1) find two models in jeans, drag them to the drawing board after finishing the bottom, and adjust them into one big and one small to form a primary and secondary relationship. (2) Continue to add a few pairs of pants without models and put them near male models, so that there are two types of pictures and the main body becomes rich. (3) In order to create a feeling of freedom and street style, I designed the scene as outdoor, so I found a European-style building in a relatively backward position, and then divided the background into two color blocks according to the direction of the building. While enriching elements, color contrast is also possible. (4) Add different shading to the two color blocks, so that the upper part becomes the sky and the pink part below becomes the ground. The flat background and picture elements have also formed a contrast between abstraction and concreteness, and collage posters have begun to take shape. ⑤ Add a master copy. In order not to affect the readability of the text, I added a white block to all the text. Pay attention to size contrast when arranging words, and don't be too formal. ⑥ You can continue to process the characters, add a layer of projection to the British text, strengthen the hierarchical relationship, and add a little handwritten English, so that font contrast is also available. Because there is still a lack of cool colors in the picture, I filled in handwritten English in blue. By the way, the next three pairs of jeans have also been adjusted, so when there are many elements on a certain path, it is not so easy to be confused. ⑦ There is still a little space up and down the layout, so two camellias that only bloom in winter are added, which echoes the season of clothing. In addition, I added the most common pigeon element in the square to make the picture more vivid and detailed. In this way, the whole picture is enriched a lot and has the taste of collage posters. Note: Adding variegated colors, reducing saturation, adding a layer of color with low saturation, and setting the blending mode of the layer to "hue" can make ordinary elements have retro temperament to some extent. Finally, make some minor adjustments, such as cutting a small color block in the lower left corner, moving the building out a little, and so on. The simple collage poster is finished here. Pet-name ruby paste prototype effect looks ok. About collage design, this article is only a rough description. To master this technique, it takes a lot of effort to learn and try, and no matter what style and skill, it must follow the principles of clarity, contrast, balance and beauty, otherwise everything will look awkward, which is why many people have learned a lot of skills, but they still can't make a good design. How to make your own poster The steps of making your own poster are as follows: Material preparation: a piece of white paper or poster board, colored pens and pencils.
Operating steps:
1, lightly draw two lines. Draw a line horizontally just below the top. Your title will be in this line. Draw a line above the bottom. Here, you can add some information you want people to know next: phone number, event date or slogan like "Buy our cookies".
2. Make a title. Gently draw words in the title area with a pencil.
3. Make a footer. Repeat the last step at the bottom-draw gently with a pencil first, and then adjust.
4. Fill in the middle part. No matter what theme your poster belongs to, it must be conveyed through the middle part.
5. Start filling! Now, a complete poster outline is displayed in front of you, make sure that the picture conforms to your idea, and then draw the text carefully, using a marker, colored pencil or crayon-if you want colored text.
6. put up posters! This is just a general reference, so you can experiment with your own ideas at will.
