Hi Mark!

The reason I started this group was allow a place for people to comment and share ideas regarding past graphics workshops……more specifically, http://www.graphicsteacher.com

I think that graphics workshops are very important to improving graphic communication skills…..graphics are not only beautiful when done right but communicate an…[Read more]

I’ve never attended a graphics workshop, but it seems like it might be really helpful, considering there’s not a lot of drawing/sketching training in school. Anyone have any thoughts if it’s worth spending the money and time on a graphics workshop?

Tatiana, the best method I found effective is to collect 50% up front then final payment before you release documents/drawings. Let them know up front and in most cases they will be OK with that. When You call them to tell them their project is finished, tell them you will email or fax the invoice to them and to bring it and the payment when they…[Read more]

How do you deal with a client who was in a hurry to get a project into his hands, but now is far behind with payment?

Great Group Brandon!

Hello everybody. I’m new to this group.
I’m doing 3D renderings for living. We use Rhino (favorite), Chief Architect and Photoshop.
What does Travis want to know about computer renderings?

I think I’m gonna’ like it in here! Anybody working in the MacOS environment with plan graphics & colour rendering?

You can get Piranesi for watercolour effects.

i want learn to colouring like watercolor in Photoshop, any ideas?

For me great design is:
1. Creating memory places
2. Creating a sense of place (genus loci)
3. Guardian of identity
4. Interest of users health, safety and welfare
What Mack mentioned is true for me as one who has had the experience on both sides, as the one to experience and admire and the one to create

Something that moves people, makes them stop and think “I wish I could do that, But even though I can’t… I am glad some one did it for me.”

Travis, yes, a lot of modeling and rendering. Pretty much any program I can get but mainly Maya, Rhino and Digital Projects.

Very excited about this group. Isn’t it interesting that we spend so much of our time perfecting our graphics for presentation purposes, and find more ways to communicate our intent in design, though in the end our designs are usually judged on the ability to properly solve a need or fulfill a desired use (which is appropriate). But what part of…[Read more]

I just want to say thanks for joining my group…..I think graphics are so important to our profession……I don’t think that we emphasize them enough…..It is important to remember that graphics are one of the most important means we have to communicate and convey ideas and emotion……I love all of your input so far…..Looking forward to…[Read more]
