Photorealism teaches you how to make images like metallic logotypes, fireworks, 3D illusions, icy letters, underwater scene, antique photos, a speeding bullet, shadows, rusty text and a lot more. It will also enhance your ability in using pen tool, layers, alpha channels and masking.

Photorealism is a very reliable computer graphics tutorial created by one of true masters of digital graphics and an accomplished illustrator who serves clients like Apple Computer, Adobe Systems and American Express. A renowned artist, Bert Monroy also worked in motion picture industry and authored books which have received critical acclaim around world.

According to Monroy, his motivation is challenge in recreating reality. The instinct for realism is powerful drive to reproduce oneself, a replication of life. With Photorealism your image will look like a real photograph.

One of advantages of photorealism is that it allows you to create photographs of products or situations that cannot be captured with a camera. In other words, you can draw everything and anything even if you haven’t actually seen it or you are aware that it does not exist and make it look real.

Another crucial point that people brainstorm about is security. Business documents are lifeline of every business. It has to be secured and guarded. Analyzing security threats, two risks must be prevented. First - risk that somebody might stole it, and second - risk of you losing data.

The first risk can be solved by use of a special software. You should take an expert for this because this really matters. The second risk can also be prevented by backing up. Tedious as it may seem but it’s a must to do it.

In article The paperless office - Myth or Reality? Posted on Nov. 19, 2001, it says: “Experts have been predicting over last thirty years concept of paperless office. Yet research from a newly published book, The Myth of Paperless Office, by Richard Harper, University of Surrey and Abigail Sellen indicates that use of paper has increased and that this increase is due to introduction of new digital technology.”

As for me, we cannot 100% get rid of paper. We are still a paper-based society. The transition will happen gradually and we are in point of sustaining transition… While we are in this stage, we must get best use of both paper and digital media.
