photoshop tablet painting


I tried to make a miss shaped building with the paint brush using the tablet which i learnt from my photoshop session, in which i tried to use the ideas similar to the movies i watched in the lecture theatre which is dr.cabinet and metropolis. which i felt a very interesting movie and to see if i could try a way to paint somewhat similar to it, from the buildings and paintings i seen in the movie.Which is more of a black and white silent movie.


This would be another imagination of my own which i painted the whole scene with the tablet using brushes and dodge. The whole scene seem to be more attractive to me for the colour I picked.

Hi Shafi

Glad to see some work up on here, do these images have a bearing on your text, or are they just practise pieces?

Hi Shafi - good to see you getting stuck in... more please - and more after that... see below

Okay - some important tips re. the essay. What I DON'T want is 1,500 words of general observations about the 'look' of a game or film; what I'm looking for is some genuine research into the creative team/rationale behind the creation of a particular world (for instance, for Superman Returns, there was a conscious effort on behalf of the production designers to create an amalgamation of time periods, so that the film had a retro/contemporary quality that referenced the forties as well as the present day); another way to discuss the 'look' of a film/game in a contextualised way is to gather together lots of film/reviews and cross-reference the similarities between observations, as reviewers identify 'trends' and 'meanings' in the production design. I want you to actually 'deconstruct' the look of something in intellectual terms, and not just bang on about the obvious stuff - this should be your mantra - AVOID GENERIC OBSERVATIONS! Find an angle, support it with external evidence and PROVE your analysis... Obviously then, I'd choose something about which you can dig up the relevant information...

hi Simon

These are practice pieces and ideas of mine to make a background scene. The first peace would be an idea of the previous film i scene which the background were more like a fairytale movie were the buildings looked different and the second would be a practise piece of my own.
