My professor send me this so I thought I should share this to the whole class. I haven’t tried it yet but it seems to be similar to Adobe (Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator). I copy and paste the message she send out. I also provided a link to the site.

[here’s an alternative to Adobe
Also, at this time Affinity design )adobe alternative) is offering

That’s why we’ve put in place three new measures which we hope will help at least some of you out there. These are:

Hello, I am conducting a study for an assignment to help me understand why it is hard for college students in the creative field to get an entry level job. There are three different questionnaires that are roughly 10 minutes each. You only need to do the questionnaire that applies to you and thank you for your time.

Emmet Sparling is #1 of my design heroes his focus in photography is travel but his style is non other of his own just looking at his images or photos he’s captured pushes me to do better the way he captures light and and moments is amazing if not more he shoots with a cannon 5d mark 5 which is way different from my camera set up.

Brian Alcazar is #2 of my influential and looked up to photographers his photography style is not by far anywhere closely related to Emmets its two different styles he focuses much more on a broad lifestyle type photography which matches my photography more I would say he’s by far one of my top 3 when its comes to this aspect the way he executes elements of story telling and capturing moments seamlessly with out having to photo shop is insane.

Here’s some of the artist that I look up to and admire their work:

Dave Gibbons

Fiona Staples

Jack Kirby

Patrick Nagel

Todd McFarlane

Camilla d’Errico is an Italian-Canadian artist  within the fine art and comic businesses with her manga-influenced style. Camilla is comic artist/creator and Pop Surrealist painter, whereas moreover contributing to the vinyl art toy development, and growing her style into design, accessories, toys and other merchandise. Fun fact in 2018 I met Camilla in Comic Con and I ended up buying $150+ worth of her merchandise.

My personal style has an emotional element to it and I would love to bring that style towards motion and animation design but because I don’t any knowledge and skills on how to create this concept, I don’t have a lot of my personal work. However, I did find Tula Lotay as known as Lisa Wood is an amazing comic illustrator. And a lot of her work shows many beautiful women with emotions and the human figure which a lot of expressions. I did not include Tula Lotay in my “Illustration Heroes Google Doc” because she doesn’t work with motion design. However, I did find Mike Winkelmann and he works with digital artwork like short films, cinema 4d, etc. I love his concepts, lighting, color theme, and perspective. So I combined Mike Winkelmann and Tula Lotay to express my interest in style.
