Digital Rendering: Photoshop, Procreate and After Effects

Communicating design concepts to a team can be tricky. But luckily, we have some incredible digital tools that can aid us! Photo editing and drawing software like Adobe Photoshop and Procreate can not only help us bring our portfolio photos to the next level, but through the use of compositing techniques, these programs allow us to digitally render entire worlds that we can share with our directors and design teams. Combine this knowledge with After Effects, and you can create animated digital artwork suitable for conceptual communication or projection design in live entertainment. If you work in a visual medium - such as scenic, costume, lighting, or projection design - these skills will be a valuable addition to your toolkit.
