I’m a little behind on blog reading and podcast listening for this week, but during my catch-up this evening, I notice that Tim O’Neill over at Art Marketing Buzz has published parts one through three of an interview with Marilyn Sholin.
Along with all the great marketing advice, Marilyn and Tim also speak briefly about some of their experiences working with me and Studio|chris (Thanks guys!). Hop on over and have a listen and leave a comment or two.
Marilyn opened a new group on Flickr a couple of months ago to accompany her upcoming book. In the discussions for the group, Marilyn posted a question about using software aside from Corel Painter X to “paint.” In my answer to the question, I added After Effects CS3 into the mix of everyone else’s suggestions because I actually have used it in still paintings before!
Those of you who know what After Effects is may be a little confused, but I’ll get into the “why” in a minute. For those who may not know, After Effects is a motion graphics and video creation/editing/compositing application produced by Adobe. Chances are, if you watch movies and TV, you’ve seen the power of After Effects for film effects.
How does it apply to still images and painting?
