With the exception of Klaus, the lil deviant, and Ben who is too dead to hold one. As I said earlier, most of the Umbrella Academy team members appeared with an umbrella in their poster. Then you want to convert your text layer to a workable layer (rasterize) and trim the edges. This layer should also be behind the person in your image. Resize until it’s as large as you’d like (probably at least 1/3 the height of the poster) and drag to whichever side of your character you’d prefer. For my posters, I used white Arial Black. The font used in the real posters is not any default font that I could match. Characters like Hazel and Cha Cha simply have striped backgrounds, and that’s just fine.) (If there isn’t a number for your character, you can skip this step. In the promotional posters, these numbers are displayed in the background behind the characters. If your character was one of the Hargreeves children, they’ve probably got a number assigned to them. You’ll want that layer to be behind your character. The longer the word, the smaller you’ll have to make it to fit on the poster, and the less bold it will look in the finished product. Whatever word you pick: keep it short, and keep it one adjective. The “super superlative” at the top of the poster should be black, Impact font. I usually use the lasso tool with my feathering on 1 pixel. So you’ll add whatever character to the poster, and use a standard mask to get rid of the background. Almost everyone has an umbrella in their poster if they were part of the team, but I’ll get to this bit in more detail later.) (Additional Note: If your character is someone who was in the Umbrella Academy, you might want to keep an eye on their hands in the photos. And obviously, you’ll want to make sure the image is large so the quality is conserved in the poster. This is important so your character doesn’t take up too much of the width of the poster and hide the striped background. I tried to restrict myself to pictures that framed at least from the hips up. I searched for other character promotional footage or photoshoots. If you’re keeping to the promo poster style, you’ll want to stick to pictures where the person is looking into the camera. This is a pretty personal step, so there’s not much I can do to help you. Wait that’s a good idea, I want to make a poster of me. The next thing you’ll want to add is you - your OC, your selfie, whatever you’re making the poster for. If you want to skip that step, here’s the plain background I started with. I also duplicated that layer to add a “sprayed strokes” filter on top, just to give the lines that unfinished texture they have in the regular posters. I took one of the licensed promo posters and selected the thin strip of stripes at the top, made it a new layer, and then stretched it to cover up the entire original poster. So full disclosure, I didn’t start from scratch. To start off, you’re gonna need your full stripe-y background. super adjective (ex: quiet, cursed, strong, bitter, high, etc.).Before you start, you probably want to collect the following: I use Photoshop for all of my editing, but there are plenty of good editing websites out there where you should be able to put the pieces together. So to start off, there’s a couple things you’re going to need for this edit. If you use my blank template, maybe give it a reblog for others to find it, but I don’t need or expect anything. If you make one of these posters, I don’t need credit. I figured I’d throw a quick walk through together in case anyone wants to make their own and isn’t sure how to start.ĭISCLAIMER: I don’t work for the Netflix graphics department, so obviously this design isn’t mine. So since the giveaway, I’ve gotten a couple messages inquiring how I made my character posters for Umbrella Academy OCs. : SOME THINGS.UMBRELLA ACADEMY CHARACTER POSTERS - TUTORIAL/RESOURCES Maniactheleader 14 2 TheEdge!
