My latest project

The above image is a poster/flyer that I created today in about an hour.  It all started when I was talking to my girlfriend today and she mentioned that she needed to create a poster for a concert her sorority is hosting.  Her first question is, "What Microsoft product can I use to make a good poster." I proceed to tell her that there isn't a Microsoft program capable of producing a good poster.  She wants to know if I can do it, and of course I tell her that I can.  The poster is promoting a concert called "Open Party."  The headlining artist is Shawn McDonald and the poster needed to reflect that.  I did a lot of extensive work in Adobe Camera Raw (one of my favorite programs) and then added the text in Photoshop.  I downloaded the fonts from www.dafont.com (a great resource for free fonts).  This was a fun project and I was glad that I had the opportunity to make this.  It's been a while since I've gotten to create promotional items like this and I enjoy doing something like this occasionally.
