Computer Aided Design and Graphics Los Angeles, California, USA

Computer Graphics

Computer Graphics encompass a wide range of graphic types. Computer graphics can be as simple as the paint and draw programs your children use. Computer graphics can be as complex as computer modeling, animation, and CGI. In between are more sophisticated paint and draw programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and Corel Draw. Also in the high end are Computer Aided Design (CAD, CADD, CADM) programs such as AutoCAD, VectorWorks. Also included in the high end are the big brothers to CAD such as the modeling and 3D programs such as form-Z, 3D Studio, and Maya. Usually when people refer to Computer Graphics, they are referring to paint and draw programs such as Photoshop and Illustrator. These are the types of images shown on this page. Most of these graphics were generated for motion picture use.

Note: These drawings are presented here for portfolio purposes only. These drawings are not available for sale or to be given away in hard copy or digitally in any scale. I will be happy to show hard-copy during a legitimate job interview for Set Designer.

Before and after. A camera malfunction caused the film to slip half a frame. The photo lab cut the last half of the slides in the middle. I used Photoshop to recombine them.

I was only allowed to take one photo of this mission which was under repair. I used Photoshop to remove the construction equipment.
