It would be nice if articles gave some idea as to the Affinity Photo experience level that's assumed of the reader and some pointers to other articles and tutorials that are available to help provide that kind of experience

It would be really helpful if the sample image(s) used in articles and tutorials could be made available for download to help provide an opportunity for people to work through the articles more easily Here are a few things that would have helped me make better use of it (similar thoughts apply to some other Affinity Photo articles I've read over the past several months. It's great that articles like this are made available to Affinity Photo users. I also added a Motion Blur filter to the ‘Bright Light Reflection layer’ I created around him.On receiving an email "Spotlight: 5 things you need to know about Affinity 2.1" I took a look at the "How to use Compound Masks in Affinity Photo 2" article which is here: I then added a Mask Layer to hide most of the blur with the Paint Brush Tool and kept just a little bit of it on his left side around the rugby ball, leg, arm and head.
To illustrate movement on Jason, I then duplicated his layer, rasterised it, and added a Motion Blur filter. To add movement to all those new elements, I applied a Motion Blur filter and then angled the blur in a particular direction to make it seem like they are flying off Jason. Then once again, using my fine art skills I drew smaller pieces of debris with the Paint Brush Tool. I duplicated two pieces of concrete from the debris pile in front of him, and then shaped them into smaller pieces by erasing from the edges using a Mask Layer. Jason is a very powerful athlete so to illustrate the power of his movement I added debris around him. Our composition is taking shape, but we need to remember that this is a sports piece and it is great to reflect the movement of sport and the athlete in the artwork. In the foreground is the main man Jason and then in front of him is a close up of some rubble. I love showing depth and perspective in my compositions and to achieve this I set up my background to include a sky, far buildings and near buildings. Step 3: CroppingĪt this stage, you want to bring most of your photographic elements into Affinity Photo and place them on the canvas. Once you have your shortlist, it helps to do a rough sketch of your scene to plan where your images will go. Now you can control the alignment of the text using the Node tool. Create a path using the Pen tool and type some text on the path (wait for the icon to change before typing). Look for as many photos as possible to contribute to your composition because that is what makes your environment look unique. A newly introduced feature in Affinity Photo allows you to create unique text art using the Pen tool. There is so much quality and variety on these sites, you are almost guaranteed to find the photos you need. These are, and which are accessible from Affinity Photo’s Stock panel.

I have three free stock photo websites that I like to use when looking for stock photography for my compositions. Step 2: Finding photos for your compositionĪlongside the licensed image of Jason Taumalolo, I will be using stock images to build up the rest of the composition. I am making my own rules and I want it to look unique. When planning scenes like this one I love that I am creating a fictional environment that does not exist. So for my concept, I have come up with the idea of him wrecking through a downtown scene after breaking through the stadium. Whenever Jason goes on one of his big runs and breaks the defensive line he leaves a trail of carnage in his wake.
He is dynamic and powerful so I want the artwork I create to reflect that. In this case, it is Jason Taumalolo who is one of the best Rugby League players in the world. When I create my artwork, I like to get a solid understanding of the athlete I am working with.
