    Christopher Sanchez

    @Christopher Sanchez

    With 17 years in graphic design and small business management under my belt, I am looking to make the move to the more creative endeavors of illustration, visual development and animation. I would like to hone my skills and beef up my portfolio before I trek into the wilds and take on the twenty-somethings that ferociously prowl these fields.

    • Cintiq & Photoshop Tips

      I'll start this topic here because I just spent too much time researching a problem I was having with brush lag in Photoshop and the Cintiq 22hd. They'll tell you in other forums to reinstall old drivers and to even reinstall your old operating system, but I found that the lag I was having came from having my rulers turned on.

      So tip #1: Turn off your rulers in Photoshop if you are experiencing a pen lag with your Cintiq. This may also help if you are having the problem with a Wacom tablet, but I haven't tried it out yet.

      And just to keep the ball rolling on the tip line, here's tip #2: If you use a lot of keyboard shortcuts, get yourself a CinTweak keyboard tray and a small bluetooth keyboard. (I am not a paid solicitor, just a happy user.) It will save you a ton of time. http://www.gizmotweak.com/

      If anyone else has any helpful tips, please keep this thread going.

      Thanks. This is just the larger-than-life promo poster. The actual style is flat to facilitate ease of animation.

    • RE: I need help with buying a Cintiq...

      Yes, a 22" HD is also what I have. I find that it is big enough without taking up too much space. I have it mounted to an Ergotron arm and I also have a Cintweak keyboard holder that fits on top of the Cintiq. Since I use a lot of different programs with the Cintiq, having a small keyboard attached to the top of it makes it easy for shortcuts. I have to say that it is the best money I have spent.

    • Experimentation Project

      In order to explore different software, techniques and styles, I have started an alphabet project. It is taking longer than I thought, but you can see the progression of each letter so far. I have found this beneficial in developing new ways of thinking about the design problems and solutions. You can follow my progress and see the descriptions for each letter on my Twitter page: www.twitter.com/digit10designs
