Not a photo, but a digital painting

The Joker and Batman ones are paintings.

Well, they're not photo's. Not ure if anyone touched them up. Though I wouldn't be surprised.



I know the new Indiana Jones poster is colored pencil.. and if I'm not mistaken I think some photoshopping was done for some of the transparencies.

I'm sure they started w/ photos either way, but you can tell that they're not just shiittily photoshopped . . . they're very well done; they maintain a modern tone, but clearly there was attention to artistic detail . . .

I haven't seen the new IJ poster, but they usually use the same cat for all of them and he is ******edly awesome

Wow, I'm amazed that such a phenomenally talented person is such a bigoted, simple-minded moron.



He has no understanding of what photography as art is?
Weird.

jesus what a prick

Yeah, to dismiss the artistic genius of all the great photographers since the invention of the camera...what an insufferable, clueless snob.

sadly people like this man believe there own hype and basically start living in there own dream world.

i am a photographer and though i wouldnt say i'm fantastic i'm not bad. a lot of work goes into my photos. thinking about composition, lighting, shadow subject matter etc. i'm also an illustrator and i would say i've but as much work and thought into my photos as i have my graphics and drawings

if there were an emoticon for cockheads, it would be posted quite rapidly in response to this feathered-muletted, polo tucked in *******

but his rendering skills are really quite amazing

exactly . . . this *****e totally disregards all of those creative aspects of photography

Just like a painter.

exactly, how you can say you only do these factors in one art form and not another baffles the mind

^I really can't even understand how this guy got so far artistically with such a close-minded attitude . . . but then again, a lot of artists become very self-absorbed and pretentious especially when they fall into a one-category specialty as this guy

and btw, I think Wilhelm was being facetious . . .

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

This just reminded me of another seemingly intelligent person who made an ass of himself with a statement that completely betrayed his ignorance of what constitutes "ART"...

...when roger ebert said that video games are not art...because of the interactive nature of them.

1. He's probably stuck thinking of Pac Man or Frogger and has never seen a cut scene from Final Fantasy (usually completely non-interactive, btw)

2. Even when they are interactive, someone has to make the creative, artistic decisions about what kind of experience they're CREATING for you, which options they're providing you with....just like an installation in an art museum.

3. I'm sure he'd consider set design to be art, costume design to be art, dialogue writing to be art, lighting to be art, the matching of music with imagery to be art......and all of that's found in video games.



Fools.

^I always felt Ebert was more progressive and liberal than Siskel, so that suprises me a bit . . . some people just refuse to change w/ the times . . .

 

[EdRyder]

Strange that he dismisses the camera as technology that "removes" the artist,when hes heavily using the airbrush in all his work

Edit:In fact im pretty sure its all airbrush

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

If he'd just kept his stupid mouth shut we'd all still be marveling at his skill, focusing on his ART, instead his Trolly desire to denigrate the self expression of others by giving us his "Definition of Art".

What a goon.

 

[EdRyder]

Well not be a jerk but,It ain't all that.Sure props on the photo realistic quality but it lacks style..Struzan's work is photo realistic and it oozes style..
Maybe he feels the need to preemptively defend his work because he knows that 70+ hours can be challenged by a split second of shutter speed

Or someone like Struzan who can pop out a piece in 30 minutes flat.

I gotta start posting less and drawin more

This was my final project in painting class.. I had to make a movie poster.

It kinda made me sad because if I was hired by a movie studio to make this, they'd basically hire someone else afterwards to retouch Rick Moranis' face and make it look like a photograph.

 

[Concept Name]

if you ask anyone on the street who is more talented a famous photographer or the guy who painted this........well you know who theyre going to pick.lol

that's extremely doubtful. studios are all about the money so if they want something that is photo realistic or a photograph they'll hire some one to just do that. its very rare they'll hire two separate artists for the one project untill its a team or something changes drastically on the piece

They do it all the time.

The Iron Man teaser poster for example. Alan Reingold was the artist that painted it, yet now you can't even see a single brush stroke. He doesn't even recognize it anymore.
