Photoshop CS5


I just got the trial version of CS5 at Sony to try out and present to the studio. I've been playing with the brushes this morning and there are some really cool additions. Anyone familiar with the Photoshop kingdom knows that we've been waiting for this for a long time! The brush bristles now follow the direction of the line. Photoshop now dynamically tracks the angle of your stylus and interprets it like this.

The paint brushes look cool, but are they fast? Painter has a lot of cool brushes too, but I never use most of them because they make the program chug.

It was pretty fast with the single stroke, but I should test it out on a full illustration to really see how it handles.

Another thing I forgot to mention is that this dynamic following only applies to certain brushes.

i like the new blending brush thing, too. I don't really get how to use it yet, but it definitely looks amazing.

Creating the Anhedonia Logo

This is the animated logo at the end of the new television show, Mr. Sunshine. Think "Sit, Ubu. Sit." or "Bad Robot!!" You can see it better quality at http://vimeo.com/20228001 A few months ago I got a call from my friend Matt Davis asking if I would maybe, possibly be somewhat interested in considering working on a logo like that for Matthew Perry. I jumped at the chance. The company is called Anhedonia Productions, and you're probably wondering what in the world "Anhedonia" means. It's the inability to experience pleasurable emotions from normally pleasurable life events. A pretty crappy situation, but comedy goldmine. I worked with Andy Erekson and Marcelo Vignali (and his daughter) to come up with a list of 50 ideas of what this logo could be within the theme that Perry had already set up. I boarded out 7 of those ideas and created 3 animated beta tests. Here are some of my favorites... For exploration: Face on Jumbotron Rodeo Christmas tre

Boss Baby (2017) Tim teaches BB about imagination - Deleted Scene

You've seen Boss Baby, of course.  This is the Sequence when Boss Baby and Tim are on the airplane headed to Las Vegas and they take the time to practice a little imagination play.  The idea was to explore what Boss Baby's version of imagination would be.  Initially, he's going to think of everything in terms of business, right?  A pirate ship would be made out of sky scrapers, naturally.  Ultimately it was cut for time, but it was a fun sequence to work on.
