“See What's Possible” Challenge

Living Possibilities by David Perry

Submitted by kropyl

Backstory

When thinking of a concept behind Adobe Photoshop, I realized that Photoshop work has many stages that I could use in my entry: you have concept (does conceptualizing about concept cause a rip in the time space continuum? if so, my bad!) You then have creativity. You have the initial production, such as photography, and then you have the actual Photoshop work. With Photoshop it's almost as if you can literally go into an image and tweak it every way you want as if you were actually there in the world. One more concept behind Photoshop that I worked with is what lies behind the realm of just still images, Photoshop melds so well with many other programs, especially motion programs to deliver amazing results. Lastly, I wanted to play just a little bit with some symbolism that I interpreted from the circle in the logo. The circle is an amazing shape because if you look at it in polygonal terms, it has an infinite amount of edges. Just as with Adobe Photoshop the user has an infinite number of possibilities-all that is needed is for the user to create and see the possibilities for the project. Thanks for watching my video, I hope you all enjoy! And good luck to yourselves as well!

    Excellent pace and editing. The "dude" has his place. He promotes the idea of the Photoshop user being enlightened by the possibilities of the software. The concept, exploring the various stages of the discovery of Photography, all the way through motion, is very clearly expressed. Excellent job!
