Typography for poster

Today, I will finish my last edit which is typography.

I use Adobe Illustrator to create the typography.
Select the print document.

Rename the file as Typo
Use A4 size ( portrait)
Then click OK

Select the typo tool ( shortcut - T )

I choose the font - DOKTOR terror 
You can download the font at http://www.1001freefonts.com/

I type the "HALLOWEEN" and adjust the size of the font.

I also change the color of the font to dark red. This color will bring out the mood of evil.

After that, go to File >>>> Save for Web 7 Devices ( shortcut - Alt +Shift + Ctrl + S).

Select PNG -24 and save.
I also repeat  the step to create the word "FESTIVAL".

Go to Photoshop and select File >>>> Open.

Open the word file and click OK.

Rename the layer as Halloween and click OK.

Drag the word to another file- background file by using move tool (shortcut - V)

Press ctrl + T to do a transform for the word and press enter to fix the word.

Go to Edit >>> Transform >>>>Warp

You can adjust the shape of the font.

Then, drag in the word " Festival" and I place it under the Halloween Word.

Select the brush tool ( shortcut -B ).

Click on toggle the brushes panel 
You will see many type of brushes and I choose the smoke brush.
You can also adjust the diameter of brush in the table.
I had download my smoke brushes at http://qbrushes.net/

Click on the part that you want the smoke effect.
I use it on the typography to create some horror mood.

This is the video that I learn about the smoke effect.

After enjoy the video, let us continue our last part editing........

Select the "Halloween" word layer and go to Layer >>> Layer style>>>> Color overlay.

You can change the color of the word.
I had change the opacity to make the word look more standout.

Then, I drag in the date of halloween " OCTOBER 31" which is do in the adobe illustrator ( same step do the "Halloween" word )and unlock the layer.

Go to Filter >>> Distort >>>> Wave.

I adjust the wave of fonts at the table. Click OK after finish adjustment.

So, the font will change to wave shape.

Go to Edit >>> Transform >>> Warp

To let the word follow the smoke and become more flow, you need to adjust the word by click on the dot.

I also change the opacity of the word to 44% because it is too bright without the adjustment.

Lastly, create a new layer to type your name.

Select the horizontal type tool ( shortcut - T)

You can change the type and size of font.

Click on the A4 paper then start to type your name.

 I place it on the right bottom on my poster.
I also add "my logo" behind my name.

I use the Sharpen tool to sharp my logo because it is too small and become blur.

Go to the menu bar and select the screen mode to view your poster.
Return press F

FINALLY ...........all done !

This my Halloween festival wallpaper....
