Patterns and Backgrounds
The main background is a gradient tint that can be used in any of the main colour palettes.
Flat Icons, line-art Icons or ‘watermark’ Icons can be overlaid on this background using either the multiply, transparency
or screen filters to achieve a wide range of creative results.
A ‘matrix’ pattern of the fl at Icons in both vertical and horizontal formats have been created.
These exist with either linear repeat (even) edges or ‘pushed’ (irregular) edges.
The supplied pattern can then be applied around imagery using ‘FLAG’ warps at any given angle,bend or percentage
to achieve an aesthetic flowing ‘movement’ or style. The precise warps and bends should be carefully chosen to work with
the implied action in the image, to echo the movement of the player, arms, legs or the ball.
These overlaid patterns can be scaled to any size to best suit the specific design.
USAGE
Below is the process used to create the correct graduated background.
 Radial Gradient
Gradient Layer 1 Gradient Layer 2
Firstly a radial gradient is made This is then duplicated and flipped
with colour changes at the vertically
appropriate positions.
Finished Background
On the trasparency palette the option
of screen is then selected on the second
version, and the two are placed over the
top of one another.
The supplied backgrounds and patterns allow maximum creativity whilst retaining a signature style.
These flowing, graduated backgrounds are foundation of the designs to link Icons, imagery and text together.
Gradients can be made from any of the key palettes, with patterns at different sizes and using applied
effects and transparencies.
