Photoshop

I use Photoshop professionally for almost every aspect of my work;  for example many of the images and concept designs in my projects page are created using it.  All my speaker promotion images are created from scratch using PS.  I have wide experience of image manipulation for Film/TV graphics and images to suit model projects or unusual distortion situations; such as fitting a graphic on to a contoured surface. The following are examples of retouching and design for various projects. If you require any graphics use in Film/TV or web advice please get in touch.

Website image Optimisation:
A year spent as account handler and Creative Lead for a music website company in Manchester (SONY MUSIC sites mainly) opened my eyes to image optimisation for web use and this is a subject I remain heavily involved with.  A key interest is web site usability and navigation. 

Animated GIFs:
I really like the ease and speed with which an animated GIF can be made and edited.  I use them for simple trans-media mock-ups and composites as well as showing off moving or tech principles.

Paris snap edit:
A family snap with far too much going on in the background!  I removed the excess tourists and trued up the perspective.  Increasing the flag stone area allowed proper centring of subjects, my wife and child.

Shark catch edit:
A friend had caught this terrific specimen but was put off the image by all the bright red blood!  A little tinkering later and it is a much rarer beast.

Tingewick Beer Festival Logo:

Having been heavily involved with the Festival in 2007 I adapted my original logo to suit a round format allowing wider use and design variety.
