Master of my Universe

From time to time I finish a bit of work for a client that I think is noteworthy. This particular image was for Alpine Access the same company that I did the rotoscoping animation for. The goal of this piece was to depict the complicated nature of the multitasking computer world. To be the master of your own universe, you need to know how to handle lots and lots of windows open for various applications. I took a photograph with my trusty fisheye lens and imported the image along with a rough sketch of a guy looking like he was playing the piano or something. The line work was done in Illustrator and then taken into photoshop where I created the space background and colored the rest of the work. I then took about 23 screenshots of various applications, websites and windows and imported them into photoshop where I layed them out and altered the sizes and perspectives to match the background image.
