Vertical Dual-Tone Gradient Compositions
(Photoshop Experimentation)
Dual-tone gradient overlays are a common design motif for posters, thumbnails, and darkened portraits -- but many split the composition along left and right boundaries.
What happens when the subject (or subjects) of our image are visually contrasted in a more... vertical... manner?
Furthermore, what happens when the main subjects aren't neatly captured as a dark-room portrait?
This project utilized Photoshop to explore both of these questions -- with ideas that involved custom lighting adjustments, glow painting, gradient mapping, and more.
(It was also a great opportunity to further explore some of London's top museums 🦕)
