I Am the One in the Center
I can’t wait to post all about our successful SPX adventure, but The Man is putting me to the grindstone this week. In the meantime please take a gander at a collaboration I did with the very talented Jeff Zoet. He should get a medal, since I am classically unphotogenic. Josh says I have to be experienced in “live action” to be “appreciated”.
I assume “live action” refers to my falling down a lot.
Jeff gifted me the raw file and I did the photo retouching. It is by no means flawless, and I learned a lot (like plucking one’s eyebrows before a photo is a great idea). If anyone’s got any pointers on retouching humans I’d love to hear them.
I told the monsters they looked sexy as-is. Francis isn’t even wearing make-up.

Fantastic collaboration! I love it.
You probably are best experienced in action, but I think you look nice in photos all the time.
When are you going to do a monster picture book — I mean for kids, but maybe monsters would like it too. If you’re interested, I can help. Chat?

YAY! You finished it! Looks great!
Any way I can get the full resolution layered PSD file? Glad you liked the photo… now you can go print some business cards for yourself!
