SUDS Poster

For this project we were supposed to create a poster for a play called SUDS, which in a nutshell was about a car wash and a reporter coming there to give someone a chance at fame. So right off the bat I knew I wanted to have a person holding a squeegee. I used a stock photo to create a silhouette made the squeegee the opposite color so it stood out. In the stock photo the person was leaning on a bar so I thought it would be a good idea to make it look like the person was leaning on some play information on the poster. I used a bunch of photoshop brushes for the background. In the top I put some grundgy checkerboard and little scribbles to show the not as glamorous start out these people would have. Then at the bottom the curvy arrows look almost like waves and to show direction to the city buildings all to show that the person the reporter chooses if off to fame. To tie these two things together I put bubbles to symbolize the car wash itself.
