Affinity Creative Sessions
Led by top creatives who use Affinity, Affinity Creative Sessions give you the chance to follow along as incredible artists, illustrators, designers and photographers work on a project using the apps.
We announce details of upcoming sessions on our social channels, so make sure you're following us on Instagram ( / affinitybys... , Twitter ( / affinitybyserif ) and Facebook ( / affinitybyse.. ) to stay updated about future premieres.
You can find out more about the Affinity suite, including getting access to free trials, over on affinity.serif.com/.
If affinity takes suggestions, many people would still like a true high end beauty and portrait retoucher to make a creative video with affinity photo.
When you come for the software but stay for the talent.
I already own ALL of the Affinity software. But I'm still struggling to transition over from Adobe for my work... Videos like this really do make me believe I can match or even exceed the quality of my Photoshop painting in Affinity Photo. And I'm looking to cut Adobe out of my life very, VERY soon.
Now that I have left Adobe in the dust, there are a few areas that Adobe still has me and that is the Substance suit for making 3D textures that can actually be saved as a single exportable preset-like file and the ability to texture 3D models. I would say that it would be great to have a premiere pro replacement, but there are so many other possible video editors out there that I don't think I would sweat Affinity for that, but if Affinity could ever integrate a way to texture 3D models or even build a whole new app just for that, I would love that! I'm on-board with what Affinity is doing and I would love to see it continue to grow!
"this is looking pretty good... SIKE" made me laugh
I ❤️ my affinity products so so much, please make a video effects/editor. I’d be on that so fast you just don’t even know :D
I am loving this software, it's getting good. I too am looking for a Photoshop replacement. I do miss Kyles lasso fill plugin for PS. I use Clip Studio Paint specifically because of the lasso fill tool.
It's so nice that the affinity deleted my comment. Speaks about the openness of the company. The comment was that Photoshop brushes do not work correctly in affinity
"shout out to my fans". Nice one, dad!
Hey, doesn’t shrinking your sketch with the transform tool in essence change the line width you’re using? So if continue to draw with your brush, your new lines won’t match the same width as the transformed ones…? Just something annoying I get a lot with any raster program like Photoshop.
I enjoy seeing the different ways artists create their work. Thanks for the video.
This guy always make the best artworks. Love him
Yessss! Please more raster illustration proces!
Super-talented, thank you!
Hi Erik - thanks for showing your process! It's always helpful to watch an expert at work. I'm sorry I missed the Q&A - I'm a newbie. I was wondering if you could go into some detail about how you color the characters -- in particular, how are you keeping confined to the outline of the character? Like at
Really awesome!
Would love to see move videos like this!
Quite nice, but I would have appreciated more focus on the interface, especially the reasons behind the extra layers I kept seeing pop up and sometime disappear. I understood the advantages behind the clipping layer, but his progress was so lightning fast it was hard to see what he was actually doing with the software.
so cool!
Can you please tell us what pen display you are using in this video? Appreciate your efforts and talent!
