Hi all,
I’m Jort and I’m a creative living in the Netherlands. I mostly create collage art, posters and illustrations, but I’m looking to experiment a bit more with photography.
I’ve been fascinated by the work that Neil Krug has done with different artists, like with Lana. His psychedelic, dreamy visual style really resonates with me and I would like to get some insights into the techniques and methods he uses, particularly in the editing department.
To be clear: I’m definitely not looking to copycat Neil’s work or style one-on-one. As an artist I know how shitty it is when people jack your stuff and I respect the hard work creatives put into their own thing. I’m primarily looking to learn from his approaches and the way he utilizes textures, post-processing and other things that are done in a digital environment.
And where better to ask this question than here! Do you guys have had any success in getting a grasp of the editing techniques that are used, or have you found other ways of getting similar results? I found a few mentions of tutorials scattered around the internet, but most links are dead or the posts have since been deleted.
Something like a Photoshop (the program I’m most experienced with) tutorial would be great, but I realize that’s maybe a little too much to ask. In any case, don’t be afraid to get really specific in sharing your insights :-)
Thanks in advance!
- Jort
