The Frontier Saga Movie Poster

Just had fun creating this after watching a couple videos this weekend that got me inspired. The original image is from Unsplash (etty fidele-457310-Bologna Italy – can’t find a link as it is an old download). It was cropped down using the Default Crop, and then followed a pretty cool video by Marty at Blue Lightning called Create a Pencil Drawing from a Photo (he supplies you with brushes and a paper texture also). My image was turned into a brown and yellow one by adding a Gradient Map on top that went from oranges to reds and was set to Vivid Light blend mode at 98% opacity. Next extended down the image using the new Crop Tool Generative Expand – incredible. In the prompt typed “brown and yellow western scene pencil effect” and that is where the little scene at the bottom appeared in the one of the choices. How did I know to do this? I also watched this really interesting video by Lisa Carney (Hollywood poster creator) and Tomasz Opansinski (Creative Technologist for AI/ML at Adobe) where they talked about everything posters. It was called Adobe Firefly Live Weekly Meetup: Using Ai for Entertainment Design and that is how I knew to add a little scene at the bottom – classic poster design. His glasses were removed using the Remove Tool which did a great job on this. The rest was just basic Photoshop creating 3 Text layers and some glows around them and some clean up. Creating digital posters is really fun to do!…..Digital Lady Syd
