The Floating Head Guy

 

A while back I mentioned a blog I found about movie poster design called PosterWire.com. Now this site isn’t updated often but when they do, it usually is something really interesting. Just recently they posted a video interview with poster designer Gavin Berliner. Whose is famous for the floating head design so commonly seen in movie posters. It’s a funny but interesting conversation where he talks a little bit about the thought process that goes into a poster design and how the actor and his or her level of fame influences the overall design. Here’s the link.

Also our very own Bert Monroy has a cool video tour of his Berkeley Hills Studio. I know that he recently did a complete remodel of his studio and it’s cool to see it finished. It’s neat to see an artist’s domain.

    Thanks for the links. It’s great to go behind the scenes with pros and get a feel for how they operate.

    Bert Monroy has got some sweet studio! I want it.

    Gavin has created a lovely niche in the art world. By now he should realize what I’ve known for some time – five heads are best.

Viewing and Basking in your Image

When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.
