This Wednesday, July 28th, DesignChat welcomes Illustrator & Graphic Design Professional Kate Bingaman-Burt — Author of “Obsessive Consumption” and Assistant
Last week I was waiting hours in airports, as usual, I was wandering and checking out banners and signs when I found a beautiful Sony ad of a cel phone called Xperia. The thing that really caught my attention was the wallpaper of the phone. It was a colorful light bean crossing the screen . I really like the effect and thought to myself, that is a good idea for a tutorial.
So in this tutorial I will show you how to create a super easy but at the same time beautiful light effect.
The wallpaper of this week is an image I created for a tutorial for Digital Arts Magazine. The idea of this image was to play with patterns and displace, so the design combines a 3D cubes pattern with an image of a girl totally deconstructed using the perspective of the cubes.
The tutorial will be available soon, but stay tuned because I will post the PSD file so you guys can take a look at how I did it.
The book suggestion of this week is for those out that love posters, I believe everyone. The book is calledWar Posters: Weapons of Mass Communication and as the name says it's all about war posters. It is divided by wars and you can get tons of inspiration from it.
