We've seen many typography works here at Abduzeedo and we sure love when we get to see 2 things we love together, like Typo and Star Wars! That's just the case of the work H-57. These are some good looking Star Wars posters made from characters. Fresh!H-57 is a advertsing agency from Italy with clients from all sorts of medias, like TV, Radio, Print and Web. For more information about them make sure to check out their Web site at http://www.h-57.com/. You will have to practice a little bit of your italian though :)

One of the great things about checking our readers emails and suggestions is that we get to see a lot of interesting stuff, and this is the case of Tomasz Opasinski. Tomasz sent us an email about some new non commercial posters he did and the artworks were really cool, so I decided to show it here for you guys. His film related posters are pretty stylish, they are simple yet very beautiful, totally worth checking out. ;)Tomasz was born in 1975 in Poland and has a BA in Computer Graphics in Print and Advertising. He is currently consulting as Digital Artist / Creative Consultant at multiple, prestigious advertising agencies in Los Angeles, CA. I really liked the style, elegant humor and visual simplicity of his posters and I'm pretty sure you will also love it. Check out Tomasz website for further artworks!

One great way to get inspired is to not get inspired by the same type of work you doing, for example if you designing a website, don't look for web design inspiration but try to get inspired by something totally different. Here is a great selection that you can boost your imagination by looking at abstract shapes with beautiful colors.<!--break--> About the authorHi there!

We've seen some great gadgets and equipment for designers. So many cool stuff, that we could actually assemble infinite perfect office spaces! Every week we'll assemble a perfect office, and we'd like you to help us. What equipment would the perfect office have?<!--break--> Not only gadgets and equipment, but also furniture, sound system, gaming stuff (for lunch time!). A designer is totally allowed to dream with the perfect office, and that's what we're gonna do here! Also, tell us your suggestions, or even better, you may tell us via twitter (mine and fabio's), using #abdz_ofc so we can check it. Alright? I hope you guys enjoy this brief selection. Cheers! ;) SMNS Clip A dual-purpose door handle that not only opens doors but transmits messages as well. Messages can be attached to the handle by using it as a clip. (at Moco Loco) Marmeled Jelly Lamp Marmeled is a design lamp that diffuses a soft, colored light thanks to a high-luminosity LED immersed in a clear and shiny gel. Perfect for moments of subtle illumination! It is a great solution for lighting up your indoor and outdoor parties and it fits with many different furnishing styles thanks to its young and original design. (at Jelly Lamp) Star Wars Rebel Pilot Headphones Styled in orange with easy to see Rebel insignias, these headphones don't just make an aural statement, they make a visual one as well. They say, "I'm not putting up with Sith oppression anymore!" But seriously, the Star Wars Rebel Pilot Headphones look awesome and sound fantastic. Plus they fold up for easy storage. That's all you really need to know. Buy some now, or Boba Fett will toss a kitty into the Great Pit of Carkoon. (at Think Geek) USB Battleship The USB Battleship is a new 5-port USB hub by design duo giffin'termeer. Not just a pretty hub, the device was designed to visually anchor the cable chaos surrounding most of our workspaces, with a toy-like, miniature ship. (at Core77) XGA M2 Projector AAXA is known in some circles for making bright little pico projectors, and its newest, the M2, is no exception. This latest model packs 110 lumens of brightness, XGA (1024 x 768) resolution -- seemingly a first for the world of tiny projectors. It also has 1GB of built-in storage plus an SD card slot if you need to get serious. The micro projector also boasts VGA, HDMI, and USB ports. Other than that, the M2 has a built-in media player with support for MP4, MP3, AVI, JPG, and other file formats, and optional cables for iPod, PSP and smartphone hookups. (at Engadget) |

Inspired by such great artists like Drew Struzan I wanted to do a different kind of a promo photo that looks more like a kind of a lobby card with a mixture of painted touch and filthy film grain look.<!--break--> Step 1First I needed some hilarious photos in front of a green screen to make the extraction in Photoshop easier.
Step 2After browsing through millions of photos I chose those body parts I would like to put together because the perfect image is mostly hard to find. So I did this "digital Frankenstein-ing" with layer masks. The models were mixed with different stock photo material, like falcons or owls. Why? 'Cause Dinosaurs are extinct. ;)
Step 3With the combination of adjustment layers and the rectangle tool feat. Asphalt and wall textures I build a rooftop. Because I don't have a helicopter anymore I had to buy an adequate stock photo. ;-)
Step 4Running dudes in front of a white layer doesn't kick ass at all. So it's better to place another stock photo – this time a high-rise skyline – in the background. With some self-made vanishing point lines it should fit right. I also build a quick helipad, to make it clearer that the helicopter already dropped the three amigos on the top of that building.
Step 5To make it look more Rock'n'Roll and not like a cheap montage, I played around with some adjustment layers like color balance or gradient maps.
Step 6I added a few shadows and a smooth vignette. For the contrast I gave everything a little bit more brightness.
Step 7The old-school method of dodge and burn helped me a lot giving everything a constant look. I matched the colors of the helicopter optically and a couple of adjustment layers later… I couldn't believe it, but my image looked like this. ;-)
Step 8Finally brought it to an end with the finishing move "old movie projector lines" followed by some noise and a smooth blur to create the look of a sleazy, 70s B-movie scene. I hope you enjoyed this case study for abduzeedo.com.
