General: July 2009 Archives

I created a meteor page that is in today's York Daily Record.

I just blogged about how the main art was created using a combination of Illustrator and Photoshop techniques.

On the page, I also created a smaller information graphic explaining what happens when the meteoroid enters Earth's atmosphere.

All four images are based off of my original main art. I just turned off my different layers depending on the time frame of what is happening.

The fourth piece of art is when the meteoroid starts breaking apart.

Very simple, I used the lasso tool and created various shapes and then cut and pasted from the original whole meteoroid. That is how I created the broken pieces. Each piece is on its own layer. I used the free transform tool to rotate and scale the pieces.

And that's all folks!
