High-End Compositing: HD Grunge
This is an example of high-end compositing with a distinctly grunge style treatment to the image as an end goal. First a background was constructed with various images. The ground had to be "built" with skewed and distorted copies of desert mudcracks, and a clouded skyline was added. After extracting the body with deep etching, it was composited with the background. All images were desaturated, and individually hand colored with levels, blending, and selective color. Leveling, curves, dodging and burning intensified all images, and high pass filters were added in layers for a hyper dark/HD look. Specular highlights and color cast were hand painted onto the foreground rocks/mudcracks. A red river was painted into the ground. Cast light was painted onto the fighter's body, as well as rim lights to further "sell" the unity of the scene. Overall the image was successfully composited and the end goal of a grunge stylized image achieved.
About Me
I'm new to this site, but with 11 years experience with some of the biggest brands in many industries, I deliver superior results compared to Freelancer's existing "talent" pool. My client list includes: Nike, Cosmopolitan, UFC, Target, and Rodale Inc. to name a few. It's for these reasons I'm recognized as one of the leading branders working today. My formal education includes the Academy of Art University. Most designers on Freelancer don't have a formal education, and hence have no understanding of brand identity, color theory, or formal design principles. I give 110% of my passion and dedication to every project that crosses my desk, and my work shows it.
