What a misguided and terrible ruling from the EU. They just handed people’s rights, privacy and copyrighted works away for free to a US behemoth. This also affects any company whose work is copyright dependent.

I thought the EU was better than this. Shame on them.

A few of my favorite compositing tips using Photoshop.

Floating shapes were modeled with Illustrator and Rendered in Substance 3D Stager, love this workflow!
