A Little Project for the Weekend

This coming weekend we are once again providing sound and video support for a large gathering of youth in Rochesster, NY. Usually we have a fairly generic background to put up or we're left using the client-supplied PowerPoint that leaves something to be desired, for my taste. So this year I put together an animation to which we will add some other "Welcome" copy to later.

Unfortunately, the animation is too large to post but I thought I'd share the initial design idea that I put together in Photoshop using some of the awesome brushes created by Jason Gaylor over at Designfruit. In particular I used his "Worn Photoshop Brushes for High Resolution [Part I]." I rarely get to work in this style, unless I'm doing something for youth, so I always have a lot of fun playing around with the different looks I can get with these amazing worn brushes. Check out the other cool brushes he has too.
