    Man, I was *NOT* expecting you to create that background by just smooshing 3 Artbreeder images together. That's insane, the end result is so lush and enticing and yet you didn't have to actually paint any of it. I've only used Artbreeder to play around and create funny faces... seems like I've got a lot to learn about it.
    Thanks for the tutorial, this stuff's really interesting to me. Your taste in design is superb. I'd love to see more videos like this, just running through your sped-up process and explaining your reasoning.

      Oi cheers mate, really appreciate the kind feedback. Aye, Artbreeder is a very interesting resource at the moment, and I foresee ai playing a bigger role in the workflow of designers in the near future as the technology gets better.
      I have a couple of new tutorials at about 95% completion that I will hopefully get a moment to finish and upload soon, so I hope they help you too!

    I like to learn to make album covers my opinion I feel like your going to fast I can take much informtaion its too fast but i notice that you use hue/saturation and drop shadow alot so do I use that too as well like what do u recommend for a beginner what kind of tools in photoshop do I use

    • @SpearheadMedia
      @SpearheadMedia  3 роки тому

      Hi mate, cheers for your comment - I'm afraid this is about a 3-4 hour process condensed down into a bite-sized video, but maybe I will make a new longer more detailed layout design video soon!
      I use hue and saturation to quickly make colours match, but this can be a hasty edit. The colour balance tool helps get more accurate colour changes! as for drop shadow, I actually usually stay away from it because it can look pretty tacky, but for this layout in particular it aesthetically worked so I was using it to break up the composition.
      Regarding tools for beginners, it all depends what aesthetic you hope to achieve - most of the tools in your adjustment panel in photoshop will be the bread and butter of photo manipulation.
      Hope this helps mate, but if you can tell me what sort of aesthetic you hope to achieve I might be able to offer more detailed advice.
