Matt Loxton teaches this class and says

“I really enjoy teaching Digital Imaging 3; it’s exciting to see students take their digital photography to the next level by learning how to further refine their work in Photoshop. We get to explore the finer details of artworking shots to an industry standard on a wide range of commercial imagery.

Students work on a team-based brief to create a movie poster from scratch using all original components and photographing the talent in the studio to make a composite. If you want to learn how to artwork photographs like the pros; this is the class for you."
