Obviously, there's the time spent making all the pieces - but once that's finished the actually website prep begins. I'm in the thick of it now- so here's an outline of what my day will entail:
(side note: I know I know - I've been giving you all a lot of sneak peaks of the pieces I'll be posting tomorrow- but rest assured, I'm not pre-selling anything.)
- Shoot each animal on a white fabric sweep (love my new camera: Nikon D5000)
- Remove the background in Photoshop (I use a variety of tools to highlight and delete the background area)
- Hand write all the descriptions
- Scan and copy handwriting into each Photoshop file
- Program the new web pages (I write my own HTML in BBEdit)
- load all the new files onto the server (I use Transmit)
(side note: I know I know - I've been giving you all a lot of sneak peaks of the pieces I'll be posting tomorrow- but rest assured, I'm not pre-selling anything.)
The clock is counting down...it won't be too long until the excitement begins. Looking forward to the update
