French retoucher Christophe Huet is a true photoshop Master! His work is fascinating. He is the one who creates the famous advertising for Playstation, but also some for Nike, Motorola, Surfrider Foundation….Best of all is that he has few working progress slideshows where you can see the process of each image, Like the one under… Its really interesting and inspiring.
His philosophy :
Christophe Huet has a particular philosophy and I think it makes his strength. Listening, availability, patience are the base of his job. He also feels concerned about the images’ impact he retouches. Sometimes, he refuses projects for personal reasons like ads for cigarettes, for junk industrial food, or others that degrade any kind of people. He thinks we have to be responsible for our act, that’s the attitude he tries to have for himself even if it’s not always easy to do. He does not want to say ‘yes’ to everything in the name of money. The artistic part of his job can’t make him forget his responsability. Likewise, he always tries to keep time to offert his job for association that struggle against cancer, smoking, aids, all bad treatment, ecology …His website is particularly well designed. It is very sober. You can also find a making off of his work. It is like little films that show the evolution of his work.
