PRESENTATION

Finally got around to work on this. Yes, it still needs a ton of work, but at least I made some progress, lol.

I've been busy compositing for clients and for my portfolio. Apparently, presentation matters. I mean why tho? Actually, ok, I get it, but still. When it comes to presentation I'm fucking lazy. I'm like ok, it's done, drop the image on my site and volia--DONE! Admittedly, it does make my portfolio look better.



This is an example of one of my composites.

I didn't add a glare on the cover, because I wanted it to look matte.

Those castor beans were a fucking pain in the ass. THANK GOD for layer masks and my pen. 

Next is animating my website designs, because, well you know--PRESENTATION.

I haven’t heard of Deposit Photos before! I liked the way you were able to take one photo element and combine it with all the other pieces so skillfully. I just might end up colouring the leaves in pastels and save some time.

I found them using a google search, lol. They are affordable, but compared to the better known and more expensive stock image sites, the images are not the best.

I appreciate you saying that! The entire process takes time, well for me it does, I wish I was faster.

I say whatever gets the job done. I used to sketch on paper, scan the image into Photoshop, then clean it up then use Illustrator to ink. After that, I would import the newly inked image back into Photoshop. It was quite the process, but at the time it worked for me. That was a lot of steps, but I learned a lot. Once you find a process that works for you, you'll be set :)
