My Favorite Silver Screen Couple

my favorite silver screen couple

A couple people asked me how I vary my leaves and trees and honestly, it’s super easy! I’ve never made a tutorial/guide before so I kept this mega simple but I hope someone out there might find it useful at least!

Also, anyone can download the brushes I use for all my art on my tumblr page (: I only use around 5 so go nuts haha

It could also be that the theatrical poster is trying to be intriguing without giving much away, to have an air of mystery/excitement that would make someone interested. In contrast, a dvd might be sold to people who've already seen the movie and would be inclined to buy a movie they liked when they're reminded of the fun characters and things that happened. I think there's also a longer tradition of artistry in movie posters and someone would see them in a different context than a dvd case. It's interesting to think about. I'd never really looked at the difference.

Movie Posters vs DVD Covers for Kids’ Movies

I recently saw a gallery showing the difference between the artistic and dramatic tone to movie posters as opposed to their bright and colorful DVD covers, also shoving in minor characters into the mix.

My buddy Kai Carpenter (Deviantart | Portfolio) just put some prints up for sale on Etsy!  Go buy them.

I love Kai, but I also hate him because he does these in goache, and that just seems like goddamn magic to me.  My memories of using gouache in school are strained and frustrated and often chalky, so seeing a fellow artist take to a medium so naturally is a serious kick in the pants, inspiration-wise.

Go buy some of his beautiful nonsense here, if you have the chance!
