Eyes are the best channel of communication among all other receiver-organs. It is said, eyes cover almost eighty percent of total perceivable massages. Designers must have vast knowledge and research on communication. As a designer you have to be conversant with your visitor who apparently remains unseen to you. But you can feel their existence as your experience grows with professional’s instinct.

Design is a core ingredient when a mass-media massage or advertisement is processed in the industry. Here, graphic designers or artists churn out massage as a product through extensive graphical and pictorial demonstrations. Actually these are the representations of some substantial products or services that intend to serve some business or social purpose. So, you must have thorough understanding about audience’s context and have dynamic senses about communication to produce successful promotional and advertisements regularly.

What is the reality of your audiences? Huge advertisements are gathering around them everyday, every moment. Try to knock and penetrate them through any route, any means. Thousands are pleading and begging for a single look. News, website, television programs, streets, sports, vehicles – wherever they see, are advertisements; whatever they see are sponsored. So, all efforts together make communication hardest to hear in the crowd. In such mess, if someone is lucky enough to draw attentions, usually suffers from lack of responses. Here, the reason we find, is something like narcotic dysfunction.

Narcotic dysfunction is ineffectiveness of narcotics at a certain dose. Usually the impact of such things decreases day by day in a regular practice. The nerve or sense does not work expectedly and it provokes for an excessive dose.

Thus the taste of our eyes does not response to a same illustration after a certain period of time. It also happens for similar standard of visuals. So, designers have to be dynamic and easy convertible to new ways of depiction. A deep insight is necessary to a designer to appear with a ‘never before’ look to his viewers. Odd or exclusive, whatever the way, opt for your best approach to express you massage effectively. Be unique in thought; be pertinent in design; be different in illustration; be aggressive in approach – thus you can exist in the market. Try to think apart from yourself. Relate and integrate common things of daily life uncommonly with the massage. But be careful about distraction from purpose.

Image selection and image treatment are very important for illustration. Photoshop is the wizard to make everything possible in an image. Arty mind and crafty hands together make incredible thing happening in the industry. Everyday, the master is producing groundbreaking representation for promotional, and peoples are running after those. They enjoy and cherish those; they talk about those and after all they turn the massage into action, which is the ultimate success of an advertisement.

These are some ways to face the challenge of dysfunction. But things are changing day by day. Market is getting aggressively competitive. We must try to be the best of the breed in the design industry; otherwise we will be lost in the oblivion.To know more please visit:

“The ability to express an idea is well nigh as important as the idea itself.” – Bernard Baruch

I am working in the professional image and design industry for several years. Here artists are the alchemists, who involve themselves in brainstorming for a piece of art that will work impressively on mass people to attain certain marketing goals. It is an art; may be considered as a part of pop art. But I admit, it doesn’t worth everything of art and here I have no intention to get into such argument about art.

In this industry, an advertisement faces more challenge than the real product, it is speaking for. I have a little to say about idea, design and communication as they are the major concerns to make an advertisement for current bloodthirsty market. I am not sure whether should I tag it as a guideline or suggestion but I want to start now.

Your design is the massage. Let it carry clearly what you or your clients want to tell about. Before starting your project, make your perception clear about the objective. Then be insightful and try to imagine the final output from the viewer’s point of view. Work out the idea what will be the best expression in performance to serve the objective. In this pitch, I believe – ‘experience is the best wisdom, other’s eye is the jury and self-confidence is the bias.’

“Two monologues do not make a dialogue.” – Jeff Daly

Self-centered and egoistic tendency are frequently observed in artist and designer, specially who are new in the industry. Mostly they design their own ‘artistic’ thoughts which are not legible. But rarely they are able to touch people with a proper massage. So, it is better to let a tentative design for an in-house test among colleagues. The designer should be open to consider any correction or suggestion that comes as a common opinion.

Be aware of making your advertisement a monologue. Be conversing warmly like a first person with the audience. Make them hearing to your words. Approach directly. No intricacy can help your excuse of artiness.

Please don’t consider advertisement as your own best art-work that you wish for as a dedicated artist. It is a marketing tool for communication and people come to you for a best promotion to make their customer buy their product. So, ‘making customers positive to the product’ must come first in your priority list when you are an ad-designer.

“The art of communication is the language of leadership.” James Humes

Your ad-design should make the massage confident and worthy enough to overwhelm the audience. But the way should be pleading and polite. In this time, people don’t like command. So, convince them with ease and let them enjoy your advertisement. Thus you can draw attention and get more time to express your massage. Please remember, people are very thin-skinned about their dignity, and other social and religious issues. So, be careful about your expression. Make sure that there is nothing to strike them harshly in text and image. Check it, and then recheck it.

“He can compress the most words into the smallest idea of any man I ever met.” Abraham Lincoln

Express decently. Restrain over-expression and wordiness. Don’t load your designed ad with over commitment that your product or service hardly can bear. It may make puzzles with the massage and decrease the cr

Summary: This article is a discussion about some precautions and tips to avoid mistakes in manual clipping path jobs. Some of these happen for ignorance and some for lack of skill. This article gives six suggestions to avoid these in professional practice.

Article Body:

It is frequently observed in the industry that some hang-over from previous amateur practice hinders professional clipping path jobs. It happens due to the past tendencies that a graphic designer cannot give up even when he/she works in a professional ground. That comes about for propensity rather than intricacy of Photoshop. If you have such problem, you can easily get rid of this by reverse practice with little care, watchfulness. Here I discuss some precautions and tips about hand drawn or manual clipping path with pen tool.

1# Duplicate the image or take it in a new layer before start your clipping job. It will preserve the main or source image intact for any mistake recovery in your clipping task. It will also help you with assistance or reference from the main source. Working on the source image is a very common mistake that graphics designer often does unmindfully. If once any unrecoverable mistake takes place, it will hardly ever let you a way out. Sometimes such little mistake also costs a lot from you.

2# Another problem from scatterbrain, is not to save the finished job properly or in a proper format. If you fail to save the image with selection, your total effort will end in vain. When you will open it again your path will not be shown. Or, if you want to save the image without any background, you must save it as a psd after clipping it. Or else you will lose your work.

3# As clipping path cuts an object from an image by its outline, you have to find out the edge sharply through which you will apply the pen tool. You can make the image sharper to make it more contrastive. It will help you with ease to follow a vivid outline. But be careful. It may distort the image. But for inconvenient or defective images designer has no way but doing this.

4# Ignorance of detail is a very common tendency of graphic designer in manual clipping path jobs. Particularly, when they have to deal with a lot of complicated images they want to overlook small details. Tiredness or idleness whatever the reason, such tendency will not help you in a professional pitch to earn better with a good reputation.

5# A very common problem of work procedure is to handle the anchor point properly. When your pen tool follows a curving line or a twist, you have to leave a number of anchor points in the path. You must neutralize previous curving by a single click right on the last anchor point before starting the next curve drawing. Unless you do this you may find some unnecessary curves disfiguring the path. Thoroughly observe every anchor-point to make a finest output.

6# Zoom-in the image to get a convenient look for drawing. Try to keep your path strictly sticking on to the object’s edge. Don’t go inside or outside of the edge and try to keep a smooth edge as-it-is in the real image. Be careful about the thorny and spiky edge. It will look odd in a bigger view.
