People may think I'm a kinda party animal who has so much free time that she can travel around the world just for chillin... wait it sounds almost right ??... no not really. It was just by chance that i could go to CA and HK in less than 2 months...
Otherwise i have a job...wait no... i have many jobs...
Here are few jobs for Hardly Evers and Racks Shanghai :
If you read my blog or DY's for a while you already know most of those pictures but you may not know how much work and time i put to make them.
How does it work ?
First, i have to remove the background and all the imperfections, such as dust on the lens, ugly shadows, skins imperfections, dark circles, things-that-are-not-supposed-to-be-there...
Then i have to compose all the characters and elements according to what the poster is supposed to mean.
And now it's the funniest part, it's where the magic begins !
Turning all this into a dramatic poster that can make people willing to watch the movie !
And you know what is the most frustrating thing ?
Its to make people believe that there are no FX and that you didn't spend hours to trick their eyes...Yes, It takes time to get the right effect, to fake some lightings and shadows, etc.
I'm not graduate from Hogward but i love my designer job, i feel like i have magic ^_^
And now you are wondering, what is the poster up here is about ?????
Actually I just finished the movie poster of " On the egde" by EMC team, starring DY kyaaahhhhh from girls !!!!!!!
They are working really hard for 2 months so far for this project and i invite you to check the official myspaceof the movie for more updates ! ;)
Back to the topic now...
My little piece of pride so far: 8h of work...
But im proud to say that nothing in this picture is REAL !
See ? Even me I was all "made" hahah XD
I changed my clothes, my hair, my make up, i changed the light on me and of course i totally built the environment behind. Funny right ?
I used to work for a professional photography studio in Paris so yes, i know how to edit people's pictures like they do in magazine, removing fat, pimples, winkles, brightening eyes, making all those womens dreaming about something that doesn't exist...
But I don't like doing that, i felt bad when i had a pic of a pretty woman and they asked me to make her even more perfect. I felt bad because she was already gorgeous and it wasn't even enough. freaking fashion world...
At least when i make poster, people know im exaggerating...
I look japanese,chinese or korean but I'm not...But for sure, I am french. I like when life is random, full of surprises and fun stuffs. I try to go forward,
