Creative Suit 3…Yes!!!

Well finally after a long wait i know a lot of people including myself that have been waiting for a good update from Adobe. I was especially excited because i wanted to see what they did with the macromedia programs. And from what i have seen on http://www.adobe.com they have done a great job. The things that they offer now and the integration between programs is going to make my life alot easier and enjoyable. I know that i have had problems with flash and photoshop and wishing i could import and the day has finally come that i can do that. Illustrator looks good as well as InDesign. The fact that you can now easily place images on a spreed means a lot to me. I know that it is very time consuming when you have to keep pressing place all day long. Now it got easier. Dreamweaver looks as if it got some awesome new features that will make web building a breeze. But i still have a lot to learn when it comes to websites. I have my own but its all make in photoshop with image maps. Not the best way to get things done. The only problem i have is the way that you buy the software they made it so that you cant get all of the programs in one bundle. But whatever thats i guess the best way they can make money. So check out adobes website and see all of the new features and what not that they now have to offer. So enjoy.

Graphic Design Magazine

Alight now here is a magazine that anyone and everyone should subscribe to. I mean its FREE. You cant get anything better than free. Now i have been getting this mag for i think 3 or 4 years now and it is very inspiring to see what the top people in the Graphic Design world are doing. And one ever year i think that come out with a special issue where you see the best of everything graphic design put into one issue. its like a 100 page issue and your mail man ends up hating you after a while but who cares what he thinks you get this nice magazine full of ideas and things that you can use. I personally love that time of year and just sit and look at all of the creative things that people come up with. So i strongly suggest that you go to there website and subscribe and enjoy the FREE magazine that is fantastic. Also it comes monthly, so you get to look forward to a new one every month. And on top of that they have a wonderful website that you should check out and look at constantly. Heres the link. Enjoy.

Who am I to tell you what to do?

Well as a young 18 year old that loves what he does and never stops doing it. Well i feel that i have some advice that i might be able to give you young and up coming designers. I have experience to back things up. I mean i have been published in a book that will hopefully be out sometime soon. I have worked for a couple of companies and well i got to talk a lot to the designers there.

Now when it comes to 3d art. Well most of you wont have ever heard of modo. Most likely you use Maya or 3ds max, im not saying that thats not a good thing. Those are leading name 3d software. But you if anything have to try Modo. Its so much easier that Maya and etc. Now i have to admit that it may not have all of the features but you till have the option of exporting and what not. Now your wondering if he only knows Modo how is he going to help me with some of my problems. Well most 3d programs are the same so its ok.

Now if your not into the graphic design or 3d field well i am very well trained in most of the traditional art mediums. I have tried just about everything, though i have to say that i am not good at everything but have a well rounded knowledge of everything art. I mostly work with colored pencil so if your also into that then lets talk.

And we come to Photography. i have invested a lot of time so yeah. I know a lot and i love taking pics and going out on photoshoots.
