Fashion photographers like Nick Knight, Leslie Zhang. Also, photographers blending photography with 3D modeling and CGI like Momo Chen and Justin Ridler.
I don’t know that I do - I feel like an eternal student. Maybe there is something to that.
With digital, the there are no limits to your imagination.
The metaverse needs artists and creators as much as it needs technical innovation. It’s a whole new medium and world that we’ve barely scratched the surface of.
I feel like I’m at an inflection point right now. I need to level up, but I’m not sure which direction I want to go. I’ve been working with AR developer tools like Lens Studio a lot, done some rudimentary game building with UE5, and increasing my video skills. I wish there was a thirteenth month in the year where I could just lock myself in a room and watch tutorials and learn things.
