although maybe not the best idea ever, i offered to create a background for the upcoming music man show. it turned out that the printer needed an adobe illustrator file with certain dimensions. now, i haven’t used illustrator in forever, being more of a photoshopper. last night, i realized how different the two programs were, and how steep the learning curve could be to learn the illustrator side of it. but, nevertheless, i spent the better part of tonight working through it. best case, i created something we could send to the printer. worst case, we pay an extra few hundred bucks to get a stock image of sufficient resolution, etc. so, i went ahead and created a simple background with basic shapes and colors to recreate the scene kerri needed. about half-way through, i realized that a 2D image and the colors i was choosing had a very south park feel, but i think it conveyed what we were looking for to provide a background for the show.
