Drotar Design & Mask Pro

Drotar Design opened its doors during the Screen Actors Guild strikes of 2000 when Production Designer Thomas Drotar, concerned about the slowdown of his commercial set design work, began accepting commissions for digital motion graphics and web design. Since that point, Drotar Design has become a full-service design studio that excels at taking any content and transforming it into an effective, beautiful and interactive digital experience.

Needless to say, Drotar and his team rely heavily on the Adobe® Creative Suite® but to ensure that they don’t spend all their time behind a computer, they enlist the help of the onOne Plug-In Suite for Adobe Photoshop®. Drotar uses almost all of the products in the Plug-In Suite and describes them as necessary for his workflow.

Union University & Genuine Fractals

union-university-3 When Union University, a four-year liberal arts university in Jackson, Tennessee, was struck by a tornado in February 2008, the campus sustained $40 million in damages to the residence life complexes and academic buildings. Fortunately, there were no human casualties but massive repairs were needed to restore the campus. In addition to structural repairs, Union University wanted to incorporate artistic elements to reaffirm the spirit of the university.

Jim Veneman, Director of Visual Communication, enlisted a group of student photographers to take pictures of downtown Jackson, with the intention of enlarging the images for display in the student center. The only issue was that the cameras these students had access to were older, six-megapixel, digital SLR’s. Veneman recognized that these cameras might not be able to produce the quality that would be expected in the large prints needed by the university. Updating equipment at the time was not an option.
