Modeling With Layers And Composition


I would like to introduce Mike Campau, who is a Creative Director for Seventh Street Studio.  I admire his 3D modeling and animation skills. There is no doubt, Mike is amazing with recreating realistic images with high level of detail, texturing, and lighting, but his artistic talent in multi-layering and selected composition makes his work eye catching.

Mike was trained as an illustrator who made a transition to graphic design with a specialty in PhotoShop and 3D.  As you can see, he takes the average image and pushes the boundaries and bring us a different perspective.  Mike quoted on Advanced Photoshop Magazine, "Most people can outline a car on white and add a drop shadow, but what we do is create images that have impact, stay true to the brand and are well designed."
