The Beat of Urban Art

Nokster · 05-12-2007, 05:16 PM

Just wanted to give you guys the scoop on some dope Urban paintings I found. Dude's name is Joshua Bua and he's mad talented. He makes all these dope Urban-influenced paintings and drawings that's been viewed by people world-wide. Apparently dude's been on the rise as he's now teaching here in USC and has done a lot of animations for Comedy Central, MTV's Lyricist Lounge, and a bunch of EA Sports games (NFL Street, NBA Street)

just wanted to give you guys the heads up... he also has a book out which I'm definitely gonna cop.

this is the pic that first caught my attention. I'm gonna get this poster and frame it on my wall. It's dope as fuck...

it seems pretty easy, all they had to do is film behind a green screen, and replace the green by the artwork in programs like Final Cut Pro, or Premiere. The animation (with cartoon effect) can be done in After Effects
