Story on my skatedeck!!!!

My project last year was about PIRANHA's, did a skate-deck mixing illustration, photoshop, and typography. This year i would have to use the same project and create my own rendition of an ad.
Took me a couple of hours, a few sketches and still nothing popped up. LUCKILY thank god for Google image search i saw some ad's that caught my eye. Decided to make a skater do tricks with a piranha deck.
It had humour and creativity to it.

Played around with simple vectoring, and filters. Changed vibrances and lighting on the actually pictures of the skater and piranha. Found trucks online added it to the piranha. players with shadows and blur effect to blend it in together. Played with different shades of blue.

I also added a pic of the deck i made last semester. created a witty slogan to it. and BOOM my skate-deck ad.

Hour i spent; 2 hours brainstorming in my notebook, 30 mins googling pictures, 1 1/2 hour cutting up pictures, 20 mins playing with picture quality, 2 hours adding it all into the banner.
