Photoshop thumbnails - part 1 - asymmetry

Описание: This video by Mike Corriero accompanies a step by step workshop on symmetrical designing featured in ImagineFX magazine issue 23.

Digital thumbnail asymmetry - 3 designs from one thumbnail.
In our world there are examples of asymmetrical life forms -- usually crustaceans and sometimes fish -- but it's rare as most life consists of symmetrical biological constructions. In order to more easily read my designs and distinguish the differences, I've selected all the negative space, inverted the selection and, on a Multiply layer, filled the designs with a solid colour. It's very easy to manipulate a design via Free Transform if I decide to make it more streamlined or stretch it out. I can even mix and match various portions of one design with another by overlapping a selection and fitting it to the width or height of the other thumbnail.
