Hey everyone!  Did you see my JAWS [link] and NIGHT OF THE KRAMPUS [link] breakdown videos on youtube?  

(No?  Oh, well you should.  Click the links following the titles back there and check them out!  They're pretty damn awesome and give you an insight into the creation of movie posters!)

Anyway, I've started a new series actually showing a step-by-step process of creating one of my own posters.  This time, it's for my custom KING KONG poster.  I lost the original Photoshop file years ago and decided what better poster to recreate than my own!  (And maybe make it a little better in the process.)

The series will be broken down into parts, with the first two already online!  Check out the series below and follow along!  Be sure to tell your friends, subscribe, like, and all that social media stuff.  Also if you want to see other professional posters broken down and possibly recreated, leave a comment on here or the videos on YouTube and let me know!

Part 3: Adding King Kong/The Girl/The Planes [SOON]
Part 4: The color grading and textures [SOON]
Part 5: Titles/Credits [SOON]

It's amazing how you think you'll be doing one thing and suddenly, 7 years later, you realize you've gone a completely different direction. The plus side to this all, is realizing that you're good at what you do and love doing it.
